children in normal populations as high

The first 5 years of life are critical for the development of language and cognitive skills.1 By
kindergarten entry, steep social gradients in reading and math ability, with successively poorer outcomes for
children in families of lower social class, are already apparent.2 — 4 Early cognitive ability is, in turn, predictive of later school performance, educational attainment, and health in adulthood5 — 7 and may serve as a marker for the quality of early brain development and a mechanism for the transmission of future health inequalities.8 Early life represents a time period of most equality and yet, beginning with in utero conditions and extending through early childhood, a wide range of socially stratified
risk and protective factors may begin to place
children on different trajectories of cognitive development.9, 10
A recent investigation from the UK Millennium Cohort Study found that a variety of parenting, home learning, and early education factors explained a small portion of the socioeconomic status (SES) gradients in
children's cognitive ability by age 5.2 Although some US studies have examined selected factors at different stages of childhood, 24 — 27 few have had comprehensive data to examine the socioeconomic distribution of a wide variety of
risk and protective factors across early childhood and their role as potential independent mediators of the SES gradients in cognitive ability at
kindergarten entry.
This project helped to demonstrate whether a program developed specifically to give at -
risk children a boost in school readiness skills before
kindergarten entry would be effective for
children in this population.
The study investigated these two groups of pre-
kindergarten children on immediate (prekindergarten), intermediate (
kindergarten) and longer term (first grade) outcomes as well as examined a number of key factors that may impact intervention including:
child history of EI / ECSE and other educational services,
child characteristics, and familial
risk factors.
Research consistently indicates that
children with more developed executive function skills prior to
kindergarten experience greater school success.6, 7 For academic achievement, these skills may scaffold language and mathematic success.12 In fact, in a low - income sample of
children, researchers have found that executive function skills prior to
kindergarten predict growth in both numeracy and literacy skills across the
kindergarten year.12 A successful transition to school may be particularly critical for
children who have faced high levels of adversity and may be at
risk for poorer school performance.
Exemplary discoveries Our findings show that aggressive dispositions were moderately stable from
kindergarten to grade 6 (e.g.,.56), whereas anxious - withdrawn behaviour was not stable until grades 2 -LRB-.36) and 3 -LRB-.51).3, 4 The percentages of
children in a community sample (n = 2775) that could be classified into distinct
risk groups were: 15 % aggressive; 12 % anxious - withdrawn, and 8.5 % aggressive - withdrawn (comorbid).5 Predictive analyses showed that aggressive
children who exceeded a
risk criterion in
kindergarten exhibited increases in psychological and school maladjustment two years later.6 Anxious - withdrawn dispositions predicted early and later increases in internalizing problems.5 Overall, the findings corroborate the premise that aggression and anxious - withdrawal are
risks for later maladjustment.

Longitudinal research indicates that young
children who develop disruptive behaviour problems are at an elevated
risk for a host of negative outcomes including chronic aggression and conduct problems, substance abuse, poor emotion regulation, school failure, peer problems and delinquency.4, 5 Early - appearing externalizing behaviours can disrupt relationships with parents and peers, initiating processes that can maintain or exacerbate
children's behavioural problems.6 Therefore, very early intervention (e.g., in day care, preschool, or
kindergarten) can be important in interrupting the potential path to chronic aggression in
children who display aggressive behaviour or who are at
risk for developing aggressive behaviour.
Effective daycare -
kindergarten interventions must target the known active
risk mechanisms that contribute to the maintenance of aggressive behaviour, especially addressing
children's self - regulatory behaviours and parents» behaviours.
