abstract: 'We examine the effects of single mothers'' welfare use and employment
|
||||
|
||||
decisions on children''s short-run cognitive development, as measured by
|
||||
|
||||
their preschool standardized math test scores. We control for three
|
||||
|
||||
mechanisms through which these decisions might affect children''s
|
||||
|
||||
outcomes: direct monetary benefits, parental time invested in the child,
|
||||
|
||||
and nonpecuniary benefits from in-kind transfer programs such as
|
||||
|
||||
Medicaid. We employ a correction function approach and control for
|
||||
|
||||
state-fixed effects to address the endogenous nature of welfare
|
||||
|
||||
participation and employment decisions. Our estimates suggest that
|
||||
|
||||
although each additional quarter of either mother''s employment or
|
||||
|
||||
welfare use results in only a small increase in a child''s standardized
|
||||
|
||||
math test score, the total effects after several quarters are sizable.
|
||||
|
||||
We allow mothers'' decisions to have varying effects on attainment by
|
||||
|
||||
children''s observed innate ability and by the intensity of welfare use
|
||||
|
||||
and employment. A child who has the mean level of observed innate
|
||||
|
||||
ability with a mother who simultaneously worked and used welfare in all
|
||||
|
||||
20 quarters after childbirth experiences an 8.25 standardized-point
|
||||
|
||||
increase in standardized scores. The positive impact is more pronounced
|
||||
|
||||
for the more disadvantaged children, who tend to be born to mothers with
|
||||
|
||||
low Armed Forces Qualification Test scores, or have lower birth weights.
|
||||
|
||||
We also examine the effects using timing of employment and welfare use,
|
||||
|
||||
as well as children''s maturity and gender. (JEL I3, J13, J22)'
