项目关怀参与者的成人福利与初学者项目的成人福利进行了比较,初学者项目是一项密切相关的随机研究,旨在对来自低收入家庭、有发育迟缓和学业失败风险的儿童进行幼儿教育干预。CARE复制了初学者在与治疗相关的年轻人的教育和职业成就方面的进展。CARE的数据也支持初级大麻使用的减少。在这两项研究中,接受治疗的人都报告采取了更积极的生活方式。第一个孩子的平均出生年龄、孩子的数量和青少年父母的比例在初级样本中受到积极影响,但在托儿所中没有受到影响。在CARE研究中发现,持续到青年期的显著教育和职业收获加强了初级青壮年的发现,并加强了对来自低收入家庭的儿童进行儿童早期干预的理由。(C)2008 Elsevier Inc.保留所有权利。
Adult benefits for participants in Project CARE were compared with those of the Abecedarian Project, a closely related randomized study of early childhood educational intervention for children from low-income families who were at risk of developmental delays and school failure. CARE replicated Abecedarian's young adult treatment-related educational and vocational attainment gains. CARE data also supported the Abecedarian reduction in marijuana use. Treated individuals in both studies reported adopting a more active life style. The average age at birth of a first child, the number of children, and the proportion of teen parents were positively affected in the Abecedarian sample but not in CARE. Finding significant educational and vocational gains lasting into young adulthood in the CARE study reinforces Abecedarian young adult findings and Strengthens the case for early childhood intervention for children from low-income families.
