abstract: 'Little is known about the determinants of out-of-school childcare
arrangements of school-age children. Using data from the Survey of
Income and Program Participation, this study compares out-of-school
childcare arrangements of children in single-mother and two-parent
working families and examines the factors influencing their childcare
decisions. Findings suggest that for both types of families, the key
factors influencing childcare choices are hours of employment of
mothers, degree of economic disadvantage, and children''s ages. We also
find that single mothers compensate for absence spouses by using kin
disproportionately more for childcare. The study shows that after-school
programs are used relatively less than other forms of childcare for
schoolchildren. We think that less use maybe associated with the
inability of after-school programs to meet the hours of childcare needed
by full-time working mothers. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science (USA). All
