Food Stamp Benefits and Child Poverty 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Dean Jolliffe Craig Gundersen Laura Tiehen Joshua Winicki 《American journal of agricultural economics》2005,87(3):569-581
In 2000, 8.8 million children lived in households participating in the Food Stamp Program, making this assistance program a crucial component of the social safety net. Despite its importance, little research has examined food stamps' effect on children's overall well-being. Using the Current Population Survey from 1989 to 2001, we consider the impact of food stamps on three measures of poverty—the headcount, the poverty gap, and the squared poverty gap. We find that in comparison to the headcount measure, food stamp benefits lead to large reductions in the poverty gap and squared poverty gap measures. 相似文献

Food Insecurity and Hunger in the Kindergarten Classroom: Its Effect on Learning and Growth 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This study investigates the correlation between food insecurity, educational achievement, and health among kindergarten children in the United States. Data from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study—Kindergarten Cohort are used to analyze educational achievement and physical growth of kindergartners faced with food insecurity. The results demonstrate that children begin to experience the effects of food insecurity even at the most marginal level of household food deprivation. Children in households with any signs of food insecurity score lower and learn less during the school year. 相似文献
