SummaryThe frequency and pattern of clinic use by a sample of 60 working class families is described. An attempt is made to explain attendance and non‐attendance in terms of the mothers' perceptions of the clinic's functions and relevance and in terms of certain social and organizational barriers. The implications of the findings for clinic use and for the organization and delivery of the service to working class families are discusse

摘要:

SummaryThis correlational study of mothers and their 6‐month‐old infants examined the importance of social support and stressors for parenting and infant development. Mothers (n= 79) were primarily White, married, and ranged in socio‐economic status from low to high. All data were collected in mothers' homes when infants were 6 months old. Diversity of sources of social support and diversity of father support were positively related to parenting (quality of stimulation in the home). Diversity of sources of social support buffered the negative relationship of maternal fatigue (stressor) to parenting. Parenting was related to social, hearing‐speech, locomotor, and general development.

摘要:

SummaryQuestionnaires were sent to 76 schools in the Macclesfield district. Seventy‐four of these were returned by head teachers and/or reception teachers. Replies concerned the school entry medical examination, information on individual children, general health information and access to professionals. Additional comments on any aspects of the service were also solicited. The results have been analysed. The majority of teachers considered that the school entry medical examination is of value, but the quality of information reaching teachers is viewed more critically. Meetings were the most favoured means of communication, but there are obvious defects in the system. Some teachers did not even know of access channels. If improvements do not occur some of the value of the examination will be lost. Suggestions for better communications are made. With local management of schools, teacher opinion must be considered if a better school health service is to be provided for the children of the distric
