Family Socioeconomic Status and Child Executive Functions: The Roles of Language, Home Environment, and Single Parenthood

This study assessed the associations between family socio-economic status and single parenthood to predict child executive functions. The study found that families with low socio-economic status with one parent in the home had children who performed less well on executive function tests than children from similarly low socio-economic status families with two parents.
