However, little is known about the degree to which neighborhood peers affect successful community reentry following incarceration. We measure the influence of social networks on recidivism by exploiting the fact that neighborhood peers may be locked up when a prisoner returns home. Using detailed arrest and incarceration data that include residential addresses for offenders, we find consistent and robust evidence that a former inmate is less likely to reoffend if more of their peers are held captive while they reintegrate into society.","PeriodicalId":48346,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Resources","volume":"57 1","pages":"1758 - 1788"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42624982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The instrument is most relevant for those with low education, so I focus on this group. I find support for pure altruism because individuals who received additional Social Security benefits passed on 15.4 percent to children via inter vivos transfers without receiving any additional care in return. On the contrary, children reduce caregiving monotonically with increases in parental Social Security benefits. Adult female children appear to be the most affected, as they both receive monetary transfers and reduce caregiving.","PeriodicalId":48346,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Resources","volume":"57 1","pages":"1466 - 1497"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43437142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Beyond Treatment Exposure–The Impact of the Timing of Early Interventions on Child and Maternal Health","authors":"Jonas Cuzulan Hirani, H. H. Sievertsen, Miriam Wüst","doi":"10.3368/jhr.0421-11583r2","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3368/jhr.0421-11583r2","url":null,"abstract":"This paper studies the impact of the timing of early-life investment policies on child and maternal health. We exploit variation induced by a 2008 Danish nurse strike that resulted in a large-scale cancellation of home visits for families with infants. Combining unique nurse records with administrative data, we show that missing the first but not later visits increases child and mother contacts to health professionals and the probability of maternal mental health issues. We show that likely mechanisms for these results include nurses’ focus on timely maternal mental health screening and information provision to new families. ∗We gratefully acknowledge financial support from the Innovation Fund Denmark grant 5155-00001B.
