From the supplier: The child care choice of parents has been a prime item of policy discussion at all levels of government in recent years. Researchers have responded by examining aspects of cost and quality of care and their implications for the family. One area in which the research effort is in its early stage is after-school child care. This paper presents an attempt to implement a test of a model of child care choice, adapted to after-school care. The results of the implementation are reported and recommendations made for the development of a larger-scale data base. (Reprinted by permission of the publisher.)
