Panel Paper: Passing the Baton: Does a Parent's 'Head Start' Affect Their Children's Outcomes? Presented: Albuquerque NM, Association for Public Policy Analysis and Management (APPAM) Annual Fall Research Conference, November 2014 Cohort(s): Children of the NLSY79, NLSY79 Publisher: Association for Public Policy Analysis and Management (APPAM) Keyword(s): Behavior Problems Index (BPI); Birthweight; Cognitive Development; Data Linkage (also see Record Linkage); Discipline; Geocoded Data; Home Observation for Measurement of Environment (HOME); Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID); Parenting Skills/Styles; Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT); School Progress; Self-Perception Profile for Children (SPPC); Siblings; State-Level Data/Policy Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. I pool analyses from several nationally representative datasets, including the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) and the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (1979) (NLSY-79, linked to the NLSY-79 Children and Young Adults dataset). Both provide data on G1 parents' Head Start participation, as well as county of residence in parents' youth (at birth or in early childhood years); both datasets include G1 sibling pairs; both datasets include measures of parenting outcomes for a sizable subset of parents; and both datasets include measures on early childhood outcomes for G2 children. Parenting outcomes include measures of cognitive and emotional stimulation in the home environment as well as parenting attitude scales (e.g., scales of parental self-efficacy and parental warmth in the PSID; scales of parental disciplinary attitudes in the NLSY). Child outcomes include measures like birthweight, early cognitive and behavioral assessments, grade progression, and academic self-concept. |
