The impact of a supplementary preschool mathematics curriculum on children's early mathematics learning
Effects of a Prekindergarten Educational Intervention on Adult Health
Objectives. We used 37 years of follow-up data from a randomized controlled trial to explore the linkage between an early educational intervention and adult health. Methods. We analyzed data from the High/Scope Perry Preschool Program (PPP), an early school-based intervention in which 123 children were randomized to a prekindergarten education group or a control group. In addition to exploring the effects of the program on health behavioral risk …

Observing Young Children in Action to Assess their Development
The High/Scope Child Observation Record (COR) measures the developmental status of young children 21/2 to 6 years old as affected by early childhood education. A study of COR ratings of children's behavior by 64 teams of COR-trained Head Start teachers and assistant teachers in southeastern Michigan demonstrated the COR's reliability and concurrent validity. COR ratings by teachers had alpha reliability coefficients of .66 to .93 and Pearson prod…

Preschool Intervention, School Success and Delinquency in a High-Risk Sample of Youth
A prominent thesis in criminology hypothesizes that “academic competence is linked to delinquency by way of success in and attachment to the school” ( Hirschi, 1969 , p. 115). The implications of this thesis are examined for a sample of low-income blacks, and a corollary to Hirschi’s thesis is proposed: Intervention prior to school entry that improves academic potential and school performance for a sample at high risk for school failure will redu…
