          Abstract

          Resumo Este artigo analisa o efeito de um programa de Educação Infantil sobre o vocabulário das crianças. Usando dados de Petrolina de 2016, o artigo compara crianças que frequentavam escola com crianças fora da escola. Para lidar com o viés de seleção, informações coletadas junto aos pais são utilizadas para criar variáveis de controle associadas a características geralmente não observáveis e que são potencialmente correlacionadas com matrícula e desenvolvimento infantil. Os resultados mostram impactos positivos sobre vocabulário expressivo. Ademais, há evidência de que o programa é mais efetivo para crianças com menos exposição à leitura em casa.

          Abstract This paper investigates the effect of an Early Childhood Education program on children’s vocabulary. Using 2016 data from Petrolina, we compare children attending school to children not enrolled at the time of data collection. To account for selection bias, information from a parents’ assessment is used to create control variables associated with characteristics usually not observed by the researcher that are potentially correlated with children’s enrollment status and child development. Results show positive and statistically significant impacts on expressive vocabulary. There is also evidence that the program is more effective for children with lower reading exposure at home.
