Abstract

A growing literature establishes that high quality early childhoodinterventions targeted toward disadvantaged children havesubstantial impacts on later life outcomes.

Experimentally induced changes inpersonality skills explain a sizable portion of adult treatment effects.

Our results suggest caution as to the likely health returnsto educational interventions focused on increasing educationalattainment among those at risk of dropping out of high school, atarget of recent health policy efforts.
