• Household Choices and Child Development (2010, methodology): “(15) is a consistent estimator of γ, that is, plimγ̂NLLS = γ.”
• Early Child Care: The Known and the Unknown (2004, unknown): “In analyses of the European American children in the SECC, Brooks-Gunn et al.

• Early Childcare and Child Development (2009, background): “But as data have improved and the range of empirical evidence has grown, findings suggest that how children suffer (or benefit) from non-maternal care depends on the alternative care being provided (see Desai et al., 1989; Kisker and Maynard, 1995; Vandell and Wolfe, 2000; Brooks-Gunn et al., 2002; ”
