First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study follows 599 mother-child pairs in Bangladesh who received parenting training and unconditional cash support when the children were infants. Now aged 6-9, the children are tested for IQ, reading, and math skills to see if the early help still makes a difference. The goal is to understand whether simple early interventions can improve long-term development.
