Li, Weilin; Duncan, Greg J.; Magnuson, Katherine; Schindler, Holly S.; Yoshikawa, Hirokazu; Leak, Jimmy – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2020
This paper uses meta-analytic techniques to estimate the separate effects of the starting age, program duration, and persistence of impacts of early childhood education programs on children's cognitive and achievement outcomes. It concentrates on studies published before the wide scale penetration of state-pre-K programs. Specifically, data are…

Miller, Carol A. – International Journal of Language and Communication Disorders, 2004
Background: Children with specific language impairment (SLI) have language abilities not commensurate with other cognitive abilities. This pattern makes the SLI population of interest when investigating the relationship between language and theory of mind. One view regarding this relationship is that theory of mind develops independently of…
