The effect of early institutional rearing on the development of eight year old children

Barbara Tizard, Jill Hodges · Journal of child psychology and psychiatry, and allied disciplines

This historical follow-up concerns the development at age eight of children who had experienced early institutional rearing. The indexed citation identifies Tizard and Hodges’ 1978 paper, but provides no abstract. Findings are not summarised here because the underlying text was not reviewed for this correction.

Limitations: Historical institutional-care cohort. Citation metadata only was reviewed in this batch; the earlier broad summary is retained in editorial history. This paper overlaps with later adolescent follow-ups in the Tizard cohort.
