摘要：

This study investigated the causal impact of attending a state-funded pre-K program, the Virginia Preschool Initiative (VPI), on letter name knowledge using a regression discontinuity (RD) design. Children who attended VPI (n=9,689) had higher letter name knowledge (9 letters higher) compared to students who had just begun VPI (n=10,897). Findings were robust across various model specifications and imputation methods used. Effect sizes were large (ES=0.89-1.01) and comparable to other state-wide pre-K evaluations using an RD design with a similar outcome. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
