The Effect of Maternal Educational Upgrading on Children's Well-Being and Academic Achievement Presented: Miami FL, Association for Public Policy Analysis and Management (APPAM) Annual Fall Research Conference, November 12-14, 2015 Cohort(s): NLSY79, NLSY79 Young Adult Publisher: Association for Public Policy Analysis and Management (APPAM) Keyword(s): Children, Academic Development; Children, Well-Being; Cognitive Ability; Educational Attainment; Modeling, Fixed Effects; Mothers, Education Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. In this study, I will draw on data from the National Longitudinal Surveys of Youth (NLSY-79 and NLSY-79 Children and Young Adults) to determine the impacts of maternal educational upgrading on children's cognitive scores, academic progress, and other outcomes. I will make use of fixed-effects and marginal structural models in order to investigate these time-varying effects. Finally, I will investigate whether any positive impacts appear to be the direct result of educational attainment itself or, rather, to be an indirect of educational upgrading acting through improved household incomes or maternal marital status. |
