Exploring the relationship between learning environments and academic achievement among young students
Does more education cause lower BMI, or do lower-BMI individuals become more educated? Evidence from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979
More educated adults have lower average body mass index (BMI). This may be due to selection, if adolescents with lower BMI attain higher levels of education, or it may be due to causation, if higher educational attainment reduces BMI gain in adulthood. We test for selection and causation in the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979, which has followed a representative US cohort from age 14-22 in 1979 through age 47-55 in 2012. Using ordinal …
Purchases, Penalties, and Power
Studies examining the association of housework with earnings have not tested for causal directionality despite competing theories about causal ordering. Autonomy theory and the relative resources, gender display, and gender deviance neutralization hypotheses suggest personal and relative earnings affect time in housework, whereas human capital theory implies the opposite. Using data from N = 3,719 continuously married couples in Waves 1 and 2 of …

Response to commentary on “An education gradient in health, a health gradient in education, or a confounded gradient in both?”

The Affordable Care Act, Dependent Health Insurance Coverage, and Young Adults' Health
This study examines the consequences of the P atient P rotection and A ffordable C are A ct ( ACA ) dependent coverage provision for the health of U . S . young adults aged\–25. Using data from the C urrent P opulation S urvey— M arch S upplement for the years 2007–2012 and ordered logistic regression analyses, we examine self‐rated health and its association with dependent health insurance coverage for 19‐ to 25‐year‐olds and a comparison group …

Low Birth Weight and Parental Investment
Do parents contribute to birth weight disparities in status attainment? This study uses a nationally representative sample of 8,550 children and 1,450 twins from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study-Birth Cohort to investigate whether, as recent studies have suggested, parents favor healthier children. Children with poor health are found to receive fewer parental investments, including breast-feeding and quality parent-child interaction, but re…
Housework
Infant Health, Race/Ethnicity, and Early Educational Outcomes Using the ECLS-B
Using data from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study-Birth Cohort, this article emphasizes the central role of poor infant health as a mechanism in the formation of early educational disparities. Results indicate that the varying prevalence of poor infant health across racial/ethnic groups explains a significant portion of the black disadvantage and a moderate portion of the Asian advantage relative to whites in math and reading skills at age f…
