Data and code for: Intergenerational Impacts of Secondary Education: Experimental Evidence from Ghana

Esther Duflo, Pascaline Dupas, Elizabeth Spelke, Mark Walsh

We provide experimental evidence on the intergenerational impacts of secondary education subsidies in a low-income context, leveraging a randomized controlled trial and 15-year longitudinal follow-up. Secondary school scholarships delay fertility, reduce unwanted pregnancies and change partner selection. Under-one mortality is reduced by …

Scaling cognitive science with classroom games for learning mathematics

Joshua T. Dean, Moira Rose Dillon, Esther Duflo, Harini Kannan et autres

We report two randomized evaluations of educational interventions targeting children in low-income neighborhoods of Delhi, India. Four math games, played in social groups, associated early emerging and universally intuitive concepts of number and geometry with the mathematical language, symbols, and operations taught …

Children’s arithmetic skills do not transfer between applied and academic mathematics

Abhijit G. Banerjee, Swati Bhattacharjee, Raghabendra Chattopadhyay, Esther Duflo et autres

Many children from low-income backgrounds worldwide fail to master school mathematics1; however, some children extensively use mental arithmetic outside school2,3. Here we surveyed children in Kolkata and Delhi, India, who work in markets (n = 1,436), to investigate whether maths skills acquired …

Comment on "Sequential validation of treatment heterogeneity" and "Comment on generic machine learning inference on heterogeneous treatment effects in randomized experiments"

Victor Chernozhukov, Mert Demirer, Esther Duflo, Iván Fernández‐Val

We warmly thank Kosuke Imai, Michael Lingzhi Li, and Stefan Wager for their gracious and insightful comments. We are particularly encouraged that both pieces recognize the importance of the research agenda the lecture laid out, which we see as critical for applied …

Selecting the Most Effective Nudge: Evidence From a Large‐Scale Experiment on Immunization

Abhijit G. Banerjee, Arun G. Chandrasekhar, Suresh Kumar Dalpath, Esther Duflo et autres

Policymakers often choose a policy bundle that is a combination of different interventions in different dosages. We develop a new technique— treatment variant aggregation (TVA)—to select a policy from a large factorial design. TVA pools together policy variants that are not meaningfully …
