Resumo: This study aimed to investigate the quality of center-based child care and education for infants. Thirty classrooms for infants from Setúbal and Palmela, in the south of Portugal, participated in this study. The overall quality of these classrooms was assessed with the Infant/Toddler Environment Rating Scale - Revised Edition and caregivers’ socialization practices were measured with the Caregiver Interaction Scale. Findings suggest that these classrooms present moderate overall quality and high-quality caregiving interaction behaviors. The associations between these process quality measures and selected classroom structural features suggest, among other implications, the need to ensure the presence of professionals with university degrees in early childhood education in these settings.

Participaram 30 salas de berçário de Setúbal e Palmela, no sul de Portugal. A qualidade global das salas foi avaliada com base na Infant/Toddler Environment Rating Scale - Revised Edition e as práticas de socialização, com base na Caregiver Interaction Scale. Os resultados revelam qualidade global média moderada das salas e elevada qualidade nas práticas de socialização. As associações entre essas medidas de processo e algumas características estruturais das salas sugerem, entre outras implicações, a necessidade de assegurar a formação superior em educação de infância dos profssionais que trabalham nesses contextos de socialização.Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2017-05-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/17824Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 32 N. 4Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 32 N. 4Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 32 N. 4Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; V. 32 N. 41806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
