I have often referred folks to, or provided a copy of, The Pro-Child Way:
Parenting with an
Ex<http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0982083432?ie=UTF8&tag=cpc0c-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0982083432>
It's not a 'research' piece. It's author, Ellen Kellner, has 2 daughters,
one from each of two ex spouses.
At one point she speaks to the question of 'visitation schedule' thusly:
"For the young child the length of time with each parent is not as important
as the frequency of time......Consistency, frequency, and clarity of
schedule should mold your visitation arrangement."

This grew out of a presentation by Joel Peskay with a theme of one size

Josh Rampi asked me to post this - please reply to

Dear List-Serve,
I am looking for any recommendations for literature (journal articles,
books, news reports) regarding parenting time schedules and their
effectiveness. I have a client who is interested in learning more about how
the following impacts her/his children (children between ages 9-12 years
old): 1) the number of transitions vs. block times with each parent, 2)
importance of face to face time with each parent at the cost of more
transitions for the children. The client is strongly in favor of longer
periods of time with each parent, one week rotation (i.e. 7 days with each
parent, transition, than 7 days with the other parent), but is open to
considering other options if the literature states otherwise.
I'm not sure if there are resources available to address these specific
questions, but thought that I could tap our collective brains to see what's
out there.
Please email your responses to hopecounseling@xxxxxxxxxxx
Thanks for your help,
Josh Rampi
