The problem
Intervention: This is an observational study examining the relationship between parental time poverty and child outcomes; no intervention was tested
Who it was tested with: Children in Ghana measured in the sixth and seventh rounds of the Ghana Living Standard Survey.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"Results of the analysis indicate an increasing decline in child enrolment in public schools (from 9% to 6%) among time poor household heads. In addition, parental time poverty increases children's walking hours to and from school and private school enrolment." This represents analysis of panel survey data examining associations between a demographic variable (parental time poverty) and child outcomes across two time periods.
Observational design; endogeneity addressed through alternative estimation methods but causation cannot be definitively established. Findings specific to Ghana.
