Distributional effects on children's cognitive and social-emotional outcomes in the Head Start Impact Study: A quantile regression approach

Sun Yeop Lee et al.

Summary: Using quantile regressions, this study examined the distributional effects of the Head Start program on child developmental outcomes. The results showed significant variation in effects across quantiles for different outcomes, and these effects diminished or disappeared over time. This highlights the importance of routinely assessing distributional effects for a better understanding of child developmental programs.

Early Parenting Interventions to Foster Human Capital in Developing Countries

Dorien Emmers et al.

Summary: This study surveys the literature on parenting training programs implemented before age 5 in developing countries, aiming to increase parental investment in human capital accumulation. The review emphasizes the mechanisms that drive treatment-induced change in human capital outcomes and identifies the demand- and supply-side behaviors that affect efficacy and effectiveness. Further research on the dynamics of human capital formation, long-term treatment impacts, and the implementation and evaluation of large-scale programs is needed.

Identification of dynamic latent factor models of skill formation with translog production

Emilia Del Bono et al.

Summary: This paper highlights an important property of the translog production function in identifying treatment effects in a latent skill formation model. It shows that properly anchored treatment effect estimates using the translog specification are invariant to any location and scale normalizations of the underlying measures, unlike when assuming a CES production function and imposing standard normalizations.

Puberty Initiates Cascading Relationships Between Neurodevelopmental, Social, and Internalizing Processes Across Adolescence

Jennifer H. Pfeifer et al.

Summary: Adolescence is a critical period of transition, where hormonal and physical changes influence brain development, social cognition, and peer relations, all of which are linked to the risk of mood and anxiety disorders. Social processes play a crucial role in understanding how pubertal development drives neural and psychological changes that can lead to mental health vulnerabilities, particularly in adolescent girls.

FROM QUANTITY TO QUALITY: DELIVERING A HOME-BASED PARENTING INTERVENTION THROUGH CHINA'S FAMILY PLANNING CADRES

Sean Sylvia et al.

Summary: The study found that a home-based parenting program delivered by cadres in China's former Family Planning Commission significantly improved infant skill development through increased investments by caregivers and improvements in parenting skills. Children who initially lagged in cognitive development and received little parental investment benefited the most from the program. Household participation in the program was linked to a more favorable view of the FPC, which also improved as a result of the program.
