KOSLINSKI, MARIANE C.  e  BARTHOLO, TIAGO LISBOA. IMPACT OF CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTERS IN THE FIRST YEAR OF PRESCHOOL. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.30, n.73, pp.280-311.  Epub 16-Jul-2019. ISSN 1984-932X.  https://doi.org/10.18222/eae.v30i73.5850.

The paper analyzes the impact of the main program for early childhood education adopted by Rio de Janeiro public municipal system since 2010 on children’s development at preschool. It discusses the methodological design and results of international research and indicates the scarcity of studies with robust designs in the Brazilian context. A random sample of 46 schools (2.716 children) collected in two waves: at the beginning and end of 2017, from the study “Baseline Brazil (BLB)”, was used in the statistical treatment of data. The descriptive analysis of data suggests an association in the same direction between attendance to the program and development in language. However, analysis using hierarchical models including controlling variables do not indicate a statistically significant effect of attending the program for cognitive development in the short run.
