q3 i? In the matched logit model, childcare dosage (weekly hours) was negatively associated with higher education enrollment (coefficient -.038, p= .001). → Garon-Carrier 2022

Evidence¶

Garon-Carrier 2022¶

Garon-Carrier, G., Ansari, A., Letarte, M.-J., & Fitzpatrick, C. (2022). Early childcare enrollment and the pursuit of higher education: A Canadian longitudinal study. Learning and Instruction, 80. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.learninstruc.2022.101615

q3 · i? · associational · r2

From Table 3's matched-sample heterogeneity model (N=469): the childcare dosage row prints coefficient -.038, OR .962, p .001, CI -.060 to -.016. This is an unstandardized regression coefficient, so no standardized effect size is available; the association is correlational within the matched design.

"Childcare dosage -.038 .962 .001 -.060; -.016"

Learner Variables¶

• Time and Continuity — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
