Abstract

Socioeconomic status (SES) is one of the most studied constructions in the social sciences. Several ways of measuring SES have been proposed, but most include some quantification of family income, parental education, and employment status. Many studies show that SES is associated with a variety of health, cognitive, and emotional social outcomes in children, with effects that begin before birth and continue into adulthood. Therefore, research activities are conducted on the socio-economic background of families on language development in children aged 5 to 7 years. Data were collected from interviews with teachers, observation of children's activities at school, and questionnaires distributed to parents. From the data set generated: (1) the influence of socio-economic status on child language development; and (2) the impact of socioeconomic status can be minimized by involvement of children in school programs
