New study posted as a pre-print examining fadeout and persistence trajectories for constrained vs unconstrained skills. This is our second paper using our MERF dataset. Some surprising findings...

Excited to share a new pre-print from myself, @EmmaRoseHart, @drewhalbailey ,@Meghan_McCorm Ben Lovett, & @tw_watts! We used a meta-analytic dataset of educational RCTs to examine the persistence and fadeout of constrained and unconstrained skills edworkingpapers.com/ai24-1069 🧵



Do intervention impacts on social-emotional skills persist more than impacts on cog skills? We spent quite a bit of time looking into this, and you should check out the results in this thread. PS: @EmmaRoseHart is on the job market...

We created the Meta-Analysis of Educational RCTs (MERF) to test this theory, among other fadeout questions. For this analysis, we focused on intervention impacts on 450 soc & cog outcomes measured consistently over time. These came from 86 educational interventions. 4/11

Very happy to see our paper published in the @JPubEcon! We do not find significant reductions in maternal employment after four years of receiving an unconditional cash transfer.

I am excited to share our new paper on the effects of Baby’s First Years unconditional cash transfers on maternal reports of child language & socioemotional development across the first three years of life! Check it out in Developmental Psychology: doi.org/10.1037/dev000…

Would Dev Psych be better off focusing on interventions that target structures & resources instead of parents? We asked 281 moms with low incomes. The answer: Moms saw both types of interventions as potentially very helpful for supporting early child dev. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Really important paper on fadeout effects of SEB skill interventions H/T @tw_watts and colleagues

If you are interested in thinking more about how interventions targeting social-emotional skills might affect longer-term outcomes, check our meta-analysis on this issue, led by @EmmaRoseHart edworkingpapers.com/ai23-782

I'm very much looking forward to presenting findings from our meta-analysis on educational intervention fadeout next Friday at the @AERA_EdResearch @SRMA_SIG seminar series! Sign-up details are below.

Next week is the final entry of this season's @SRMA_SIG Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis online seminar series. I'm so excited that we'll get to hear from Emma Hart (@EmmaRoseHart), sharing findings from her innovative meta-analysis on the persistence of intervention effects.

What a PHENOMENAL presentation by @EmmaRoseHart #SREE2023 SO clear and engaging, so methodologically strong, and a major advance in the field of ECE on fadeout (or not) of skills. Can't wait to see where your work leads you next...@tw_watts

Interventions (k = 87, N = 59,237 kids) had significant effects on social-emotional outcomes (e.g. crime, substance use, externalizing & internalizing symptoms, scales scales)! BUT showed fadeout over a couple of years... From Emma R Hart, @drewhalbailey edworkingpapers.org/sites/default/…
