Child Care and Child Development
Child Care and Child Development
Period:
01.03.2009 – 30.04.2010
The aim of this research project is to estimate the effect of pre-school institutional child care on child outcomes at school entry. In particular, we are interested in evaluating how the duration of child care attendance is influencing child development measured at entry of school. We use unique administrative data which we combine with socio-economic background variables on the regional level. With these new data we can contribute to the ongoing debate on the effects of institutional child care on children’s school readiness.
