摘要

2005年，一场大地震袭击了巴基斯坦北部。地震对家庭和个人特征的影响似乎是外生的，家庭在地震后获得了大量补偿。四年后，地震暴露对家庭和成人的影响没有差异。然而，地震时3岁以下的儿童累积了大量的身高缺陷，3-11岁的儿童在学业测试中的得分明显较低，除非他们的母亲完成了初等教育。即使灾难伴随着大量的补偿，也可能导致人力资本积累的严重中断。

Human Capital Accumulation and Disasters

ABSTRACT In 2005 a large earthquake struck northern Pakistan. Exposure to the earthquake was plausibly exogenous to household and individual characteristics, and households received substantial compensation after the earthquake. Four years later, there were no differences in household or adult outcomes by earthquake exposure. Nevertheless, children under age three at the time of the earthquake accumulated large height deficits, and children aged 3–11 scored significantly worse on academic tests, unless their mothers had completed primary education. Even disasters that are accompanied with substantial compensation can lead to severe disruptions in the accumulation of human capital.
