Dingfelder articulated several shortcomings of the NICHD day care study. First, the study did not break down the effects of daycare on different subgroups of children.

The study also neglected to address the mechanisms by which day care may increase aggression. Discuss the following questions:

Could it be lack of punishment for aggressive acts or something else?Could these effects be associated with positive outcomes for children?
