收入动态小组研究中专门收集的成年人数据被用来提供证据,证明“先声夺人”的长期影响,这是一项针对贫困学龄前儿童的早期干预计划。相对于没有参加过“先声夺人计划”的兄弟姐妹,参加过“先声夺人计划”的白人更有可能完成高中学业,上大学,并可能在20岁出头时获得更高的收入。参加“先行计划”的非洲裔美国人不太可能被登记或被指控犯罪。有一些证据表明,从年长的“先声夺人”儿童到年幼的兄弟姐妹,存在着积极的溢出效应。
Specially collected data on adults in the Panel Study of Income Dynamics are used to provide evidence on the longer-term effects of Head Start, an early intervention program for poor preschool-age children. Whites who attended Head Start are, relative to their siblings who did not, significantly more likely to complete high school, attend college, and possibly have higher earnings in their early twenties. African-Americans who participated in Head Start are less likely to have been booked or charged with a crime. There is some evidence of positive spillovers from older Head Start children to their younger siblings.
