    Open AccessElise Huillery, Adrien Bouguen et al.ARTICLEThe Economic Journal2025Cited by: 1References: 37

    This article shows that a four-year mindset intervention in disadvantaged middle schools led to a 0.05-standard-deviation increase in grade point average, associated with more optimistic beliefs, more self-criticism and improved school behaviour. Treatment effects were larger in terms of both grade point average and National Exam results for students with relatively better social, academic and discipline profiles. According to international empir…

We compared the reliability and validity of the three leading measurements methods - a student-reported questi…

    Francesco Avvisati, Adrien Bouguen et al.DATASETAEA Randomized Controlled Trials2014

    This paper presents a randomized field experiment conducted in a set of French middle schools located in a deprived educational district near Paris. Parents in test groups were invited to participate in a simple program of training sessions on how to get better involved in their children’s education. At the end of the school-year, we find that treated families effectively increased their school- and home-based involvement activities. Children of …

  • Impact Evaluation of Three Types of Early Childhood Development Interventions in Cambodia

    Adrien Bouguen, Deon Filmer et al.BOOK2013

    Scaling up early childhood development services has the potential to increase children's cognitive and socio-emotional development and promote school readiness in a large segment of the population. This study used a randomized controlled trial approach to evaluate three scaled-up programs designed to widen access to early childhood development services: formal preschools, community preschools, and home-based services. The impacts of all three pro…
