The First Five Years project - Appendix
This section discusses charged and attended child care hours, linkage bias, sample size for the inference computation results, and the rules used for calculating income.
The First Five Years project - Child and family characteristics
In this section we show how socio-economic factors such as parental educational attainment, household income and neighbourhood SES were associated with child development vulnerability. Other family composition factors such as single/dual parent household, language background and maternal age of the mother at birth are also investigated. How child and parent ill-health affected child development is presented separately for boys and girls. The impact of parental ill-health in the first five years before the child went to school is also shown.
The First Five Years project - Conclusions
In this section, we summarise the key results of the project, discuss the limitations and future directions.
The First Five Years project – Duration of child care attendance
In this section we describe the associations between child care duration and rates of being developmentally on track for different subgroups of the population.
The First Five Years project – ECEC attendance
Associations between early education attendance and child development
The First Five Years project – ECEC Quality
In this section we describe the associations between child care quality and rates of being developmentally on track for different subgroups of the population.
The First Five Years project – Effects of child care
Estimating the effect of child care on children’s developmental outcomes
The First Five Years project - Introduction
The project used descriptive analysis, predictive modelling, and statistical inference techniques to explore associations between children’s circumstances and child care use and their developmental outcomes in the first year of school.
The First Five Years project - Methodology
This section contains detailed information about datasets, key analytical decisions, constructed factors and statistical techniques used within the project.
The First Five Years project – Predictive modelling
In this section, the risk and preventative factors that had a significant association with early child development are identified. How much each individual factor was associated with child developmental vulnerability are reported, for boys and girls separately.
The First Five Years project publication
The First Five Years was developed as a flagship project under the Data Integration Partnership for Australia (DIPA) as a collaborative endeavour involving project partners from across government and the university sector.
