摘要
Associations between home literacy environment and children's reading ability are often assumed to reflect a direct influence. However, heritability could account for the association between parent and child literacy-related measures. We used data from 101 mother/father/child triads to consider the extent to which associations between home literacy and children's reading fluency could be accounted for by parental reading fluency. Although home literacy correlated significantly with children's reading, no variable predicted significant variance after allowing for parental reading, except the number of books in the home. By incorporating measures of heritable parental traits into studies investigating home environment effects, we can start to identify which variables are correlates of parental traits and which might play a causal role in fostering children's development. Spanish Se asume a menudo que hay una influencia directa en las relaciones entre el entorno hogareno de alfabetismo y la capacidad lectora de los ninos. Sin embargo, es posible que las medidas de alfabetismo entre los padres y ninos puedan ser debidas a la herencia. Usamos data de 101 triadas de madre/padre/nino para considerar el grado al cual las asociaciones entre el alfabetismo hogareno y la fluidez lectora de los ninos podria ser explicado por la fluidez lectora de los padres. Aunque el alfabetismo hogareno mostro tener una correlacion considerable en la lectura de los ninos, ninguna variable pudo predecir una discrepancia significativa despues de tomar en cuenta la lectura paterna, salvo el numero de libros en el hogar. Al incorporar medidas de rasgos paternales hereditarios en estudios sobre los efectos del entorno hogareno, podremos empezar a identificar cuales variables son correlatos de los rasgos paternales y cuales podrian tener un papel casual en el fomento del desarrollo de los ninos.
