The relationship between access to pre-school education and the development of social-emotional competencies: Longitudinal evidence from Peru

This article, published in the International Journal of Educational Development, provides evidence of the role pre-school plays in the development of social-emotional competencies. The authors used data from the Young Lives longitudinal study in Peru to test the relationship between attendance to pre-school education with agency and pride at ages 8, 12, and 15, and self-efficacy and self-esteem at ages 12 and 15. They found that attendance to pre-school is related to higher socio-emotional ability, specifically higher scores on indicators of agency and pride.

The origins of cognitive skills and non-cognitive skills: The long-term effect of in-utero rainfall shocks in India

Skills are an important predictor of labour, education, and wellbeing outcomes. Understanding the origins of skills formation is important for reducing future inequalities.

This paper, published in Economics and Human Biology, analyses the effect of shocks in-utero on human capital outcomes in childhood and adolescence in India. By combining historical rainfall data and longitudinal data from Young Lives, the authors estimate the effect of rainfall shocks in-utero on cognitive and non-cognitive skills development over the first 15 years of life.
