520 | |a This report presents Phase 1 of the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA) 3-phase Preprimary Project being conducted in 11 to 15 countries. The project spans the years 1987 through 1997. The Preprimary Project has been designed to be conducted in three interrelated phases: Phase 1, a household survey in each participating nation to determine the types of early care and education services used by families, some characteristics of these families, and daily-life patterns of 4-year-olds; Phase 2, an in-depth study of sample settings identified in Phase 1 to determine quality of care and education in various settings, to examine interactive and structural features of these settings, and to explore program and family factors on developmental status in 4-year-olds; Phase 3, follow-up studies of development and progress in Phase 1 children at age 7. Initially, Phase 1 documented what 11 nations' official government policies have been historically toward early childhood services. They are: Belgium, The People's Republic of China, Finland, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Nigeria, Portugal, Spain, Thailand, and the United States. Notably, over 60% of all children surveyed spend at least some time in extraparental care or education settings. Ten major findings resulted from the Phase 1 inquiries: (1) the trend from parent care to out-of-home care or education for preschoolers is linked to the movement of women into the paid workforce; (2) the trend toward extraparental care or education is not likely to be reversed; (3) most of the children receiving extraparental care or education do so in only one such setting; (4) these children spend from 17 to 55 hours per week in extraparental settings; (5) parents electing to keep their children at home did so for parent-related reasons; (6) most out-of-home care or education services are sponsored by government or religious groups; (7) few such settings or services offered comprehensive service; (8) without exception and irrespective of stage of economic development, in each country it was the mothers who took primary responsibility for preschooler's care and supervision; (9) nonfamilial caregivers spend a widely varying amount of time daily with these children and, in some of the countries, preschoolers are left alone for extended periods; (10) the majority of children spend most of the time at home or in an organized care center.
