This study is concerned with intergenerational mobility in health and human capital outcomes in developing economies. Using data from Brazil, Bolivia, and Colombia, we will measure the effects of parental and community characteristics on a series of indicators of children's well-being: child height and weight (conditional on height) and the children's subsequent human capital as adults, proxied by labor market earnings. For these outcomes, we will estimate returns to education, paying particular attention to the separate contribution of family background which will be measured with parental education and stature. The way community services and infrastructure affect human capital accumulation, especially child height and weight, will also be studied. We will examine both independent effects and the interaction between the availability of better community health, education, and water infrastructure, and parental and household characteristics. Results will be compared within and across the three countries by cohort and, for Brazil, across time. Household level data will be drawn from two very large Brazilian surveys, ENDEF and the 1982 PNAD, and from the World Bank's Living Standards Measurement Surveys in Bolivia and Colombia. These household surveys, which are unusually comprehensive, will be matched with community data on service availability to form a very rich database with which we will identify the determinants of the indicators of child well-being.

这项研究关注的是健康和健康方面的代际流动性 发展中经济体的人力资本成果。使用来自巴西的数据， 玻利维亚和哥伦比亚，我们将衡量父母和 少年儿童一系列指标的社区特征 幸福感：儿童身高和体重(以身高为条件)和 劳动力市场代理的儿童作为成人的后续人力资本 收入。 对于这些结果，我们将估计教育回报，支付 特别注意家庭背景的不同贡献 这将通过父母的教育和身高来衡量。这条路 社区服务和基础设施影响人力资本积累， 特别是儿童的身高和体重，也将进行研究。我们将研究 既有独立效应，也有交互作用 更好的社区卫生、教育和水基础设施，以及父母 和家庭特征。结果将在内部和跨区域进行比较 这三个国家是按队列划分的，对于巴西来说，是跨越时间的。 家庭层面的数据将来自巴西的两项非常大的调查， ENDEF和1982 PNAD，以及来自世界银行的生活标准 玻利维亚和哥伦比亚的测量调查。这些家庭调查， 非常全面，将与社区数据相匹配 服务可用性以形成一个非常丰富的数据库，我们将利用该数据库 确定儿童福祉指标的决定因素。
