Early Maternal Time Investment and Early Child Outcomes (2016, methodology): “As the underlying variables load positively on the factor, a higher value of the parenting index reflects greater parental discipline or stricter rules (Dooley and Stewart, 2007; Ermisch, 2008; Kelly et al., 2011; Fiorini and Keane, 2014).”
Do smart parents raise smart children? The intergenerational transmission of cognitive abilities (2010, background): “…the other hand be transmitted by a positive productivity effect of parental education, or "nurture" (e.g. Sacerdote 2002, Plug and Vijverberg 2003, Ermisch 2008).2 Higher parental investment by more able parents could lead to better health and education of their offspring, which may translate…”
Socioeconomic Inequality in Children’s Achievement from Infancy to Adolescence: The Case of Germany (2020, background): “…goes along with more knowledge and skills that can be transmitted to children directly, through everyday social interaction, or indirectly, through beneficial parenting practices (Ermisch 2008; Schaub 2010) or stronger involvement in their children’s school life (Domina 2005; Fan and Chen 2001).”
Parenting style as an investment in human development (2018, methodology): “In particular, Ermisch (2008) argues that parenting in early childhood contributes to the intergenerational persistence in incomes and our theoretical model certainly demonstrates that conceptually this proposition makes a great deal of sense.”
Cognitive skills, non-cognitive skills, and family background: evidence from sibling correlations (2016, unknown): “Nevertheless, there is also evidence from the economic literature that cognitive skills are shaped by environmental factors, such as educational activities in the family or parenting style (e.g., Sacerdote 2002; Plug and Vijverberg 2003; Ermisch 2008; Fiorini and Keane 2014).”
