abstract: 'Prior research suggests that socioeconomic standing during the early
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
years of life, particularly in utero, is associated with child health.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
However, it is unclear whether socioeconomic benefits are only maximized
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
at very young ages. Moreover, given the link between socioeconomic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
status (SES) and race, research is inconclusive whether any SES benefits
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
during those younger ages would uniformly benefit all racial and ethnic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
groups. Using 1986-2014 data from the National Longitudinal Study of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Youth (NLSY79), this study examines the impact of socioeconomic timing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
on child weight outcomes by race. Specifically, this research
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
investigates whether specific points exist where socioeconomic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
investment would have higher returns on child health. Findings suggest
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that both the timing and the type of socioeconomic exposure is important
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to understanding child weight status. SES, particularly mother''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment and father''s education, is important in determining child
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health, and each measure is linked to weight gain differently for White,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Black, and Hispanic children at specific ages. Policies such as granting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
more educational access for men and work-family balance for women are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
discussed.'
