Home Environment and School Learning: A Quantitative Synthesis.

Iverson, Barbara K.; Walberg, Herbert J.

Journal of Experimental Education, v50 n3 p144-51 Spr 1982

Eighteen studies on the correlation of home environment and learning were selected, and their results synthesized. The analyses suggest that ability and achievement are more closely linked to the socio-psychological environment and intellectual stimulation in the home than they are to parental socioeconomic status indicators.
