Noghanibehambari","doi":"10.1086/726121","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1086/726121","url":null,"abstract":"Previous literature suggested that promoting childhood health could have intergenerational benefits. While several studies have pointed to the life-cycle benefits of mass vaccinations and disease eliminations, fewer studies have explored their long-run intergenerational aspects. This paper joins the ongoing literature by exploring the intergenerational health benefits of mothers’ childhood exposure to the measles vaccination for their infants’ birth outcomes. Our identification strategy takes advantage of cross-cohort exposure to the introduction of the measles vaccine in 1963 and cross-state variations in pre-vaccine measles rates. Using the universe of birth records in the US over the years 1970-2004, we show that mothers who were exposed to the measles vaccine reveal improved birth outcomes. For mothers in states with an average pre-vaccine measles rate, full exposure to the vaccine during childhood is associated with roughly 12 grams of additional birth weight and a 5 percent reduction in the incidence of low-birth-weight newborns. A series of event-study analyses suggest that these findings are not driven by preexisting trends in outcomes. Moreover, the effects are considerably larger among black mothers and low-educated mothers. Further analyses suggest that improvements in education and increases in prenatal care utilization are potential mechanism channels.","PeriodicalId":45056,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Health Economics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2023-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44336472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I employ the ‘Difference in differences’ estimation strategy to identify the effects of WIC and Medicaid separately. The results show that a one percentage point increase in WIC eligibility increases average birth weight by 0.495g, which corresponds to an estimated treatment on the treated effect of 23.6g. WIC also reduces the incidence of Small for Gestational Age (SGA) by 0.021 percentage points which corresponds to a treatment on the treated effect of 10.4%. For Medicaid, a one percentage point increase in Medicaid eligibility reduces the incidence of very low birth weight by 0.002 percentage points and preterm birth by 0.015 percentage points. I find little evidence that there is a strong causal link between WIC and low birth weight or preterm birth; however, most literature on WIC found a positive causation.
