“…To address these multiple causes, several contributors to this special issue have suggested interventions. Early, high‐quality daycare is one proposal (García, Heckman, & Ziff, this issue). Another is the suggestion that rather than focusing on adolescent interventions for boys, preventative efforts need to target at‐risk future mothers and infant girls who will be the mothers of tomorrow (Tremblay & Côtá, this issue).…”

We apply a biopsychosocial approach to introduce early‐in‐life experiences that explain a significant part of the male preponderance in the perpetration of violence. Early caregiver abuse and neglect, father absence, and exposure to family and neighborhood violence exacerbate boys’ greater risk for aggressive behavior and increase the probability of carrying out violent acts later in life. We examine the development of the psychological self and explore conditions that encourage physical aggression, focusing on the impact on the infant and toddler's emergent mental representation of self, others, and self–other relationships. Boys’ slower developmental timetable in the first years of life may enhance their vulnerability for disorganization in emergent neurobiological networks mediating organization of socioemotional relationships. Emergent attachment and activation relationship systems may differentially affect risk and resilience in boys and girls, particularly in single‐parent families. Evidence has suggested that the dramatic increase in single‐parent families is especially linked to corresponding increases in behavioral undercontrol, antisocial behavior, and the emergence of violence in boys.

A Realist Synthesis of Literature Informing Programme Theories for Well Child Care in Primary Health Systems of Developed Economies

Introduction: Well-child Care is the provision of preventative health care services for children and their families. The approach, however, to the universal provision of those services is contentious. Methods: We undertook a realist synthesis to enhance understanding of the theoretical mechanisms driving Well-child Care by searching for published and grey literature from multiple databases. Findings: Well-child Care is re-conceptualised as an integrated program delivered in the continuum of pregnancy, infancy and childhood. Depending on the context, Well-child Care can be a policy, a strategy, or an actual clinical practice that promotes child and family health. The main mechanisms include: role, training and continuity of health providers; administrators’ views of the return of investment on achieved outcomes; access to services by families; and the adaptation of programs to meet the dynamic needs of stakeholders. Evidence indicates that for most outcomes, Well-child Care is best delivered in partnerships between community health, social care, and early childhood education sectors. Conclusions: We conclude that Well-child Care policy and program leaders should shift their focus to the integration of: human and physical resources; policy instruments; and shared agreement on outcomes measures across health, social and education sectors. In addition, countries should work towards strengthening universal early education programs and parents’ health literacy regarding child development, health and safety.

“…The ECCE period which includes processes related to living, growing, development and care contains a total of four developmental periods: physical, cognitive, linguistic and socio-emotional (Gordon and Browne, 2011). Participation in high-quality ECCE services also benefit the general society significantly while also doing so for the individual that participates in such services (Bakken, Brown and Downing, 2017;Barnet, 1995;Barenet, 2011;Beşpınar and Aybars, 2013;García and Heckman and Ziff, 2019;Kağıtçıbaşı, Sunar, Bekman and Cemalcılar, 2005;Mitchell, Wylie and Carr, 2008). The question of by whom the ECCE services shall be financed is a topic of debate.…”

The study aims to reveal the educational expenditures of families during the early childhood care and education period (ECCE). 192 families whose children were enrolled in public or private ECCE schools in Kastamonu province center form the working group of the study. The study is a descriptive study done using the scanning method. The data for the study was collected through surveys. The analysis of the collected data was done via descriptive statistics and the nonparametric Kruksal Wallis H test. The study reveals that the families whose children are enrolled in public ECCE schools, during the educational year, spent an average of 3.411,1 TL in total while families whose children are enrolled in private ECCE schools spent in average 6.222,4 TL. It was observed that the factors of the sex of the child, who the child lives with, the education level of the father, the employment status of the father, and the profession of the father were not decisive in the ECCE education expenditures the family makes but those of the transportation method to the school, the type of the school the child is enrolled, the education level of the mother, the employment status and profession of the mother, income of the family, and the population of the family were. It is hereby suggested that a study be done that questions from the social, economic, and cultural perspectives why the factors related with the mother are more (or less) decisive in ECCE education expenditures of different family types.
