This study suggests federal grants-in-aid had an important influence on state and local government spending during the 1960s and most of the 1970s. This positive stimulation also seems to have continued during 1982–1985, despite the Reagan administration's efforts to cut the level of federal aid to states and communities. The stimulative effect of federal aid, however, was showing signs of diminishing after 1977 and was conspicuously absent for the 1977–1981 and 1985–1988 periods
