Dynamic Complementarity
摘要
Dynamic complementarity is the concept that past investments that lead to higher stocks of skill at one age promote the growth of skills from investment at that age. We define and provide evidence on dynamic complementarity using unique Chinese data from a home visiting program for young children targeted to parents in rural China. In addition, we investigate growth in learning due to innate, parental, and environmental factors that occur in the absence of any formal intervention.
中文摘要
动态互补性是指过去投资导致某一年龄段技能存量增加，进而促进该年龄段投资所带来技能增长的概念。我们利用中国农村地区针对幼儿家长的家访项目的独特数据，定义并提供了动态互补性的证据。此外，我们还考察了在没有正式干预的情况下，由先天、父母及环境因素引起的学习增长情况。
