Following up on my response to Jim Clark's query regarding a book 
possibly claiming harm from daycare ( a post which hasn't yet hit 
TIPS, I see), I found the following:

Langlois, J., and Liben, L. (2003). Child care research: an editorial 
perspective. Child Development, 74, 969-975 [July/August issue]

They published in that issue two studies on the topic, one from the 
on-going NICHD study I referred to in my earlier post and another, 
and invited a bunch of commentaries on both (as well as the editorial 
cited above).  It seems that the two studies provide the basis for 
claims of some degree of harm, although that conclusion is 
controversial and apparently hotly debated in the commentaries. As 
Langlois and Liben point out, both studies were correlational.
