Exports and Productivity Growth: First Evidence from a Continuous Treatment Approach (2008, positive): “13 Behrman et al. (2004) examine the effect of a preschool program targeted towards disadvantaged children (the treatment), allowing for different lengths (doses) of exposure to the program.”
Seasonal Migration and Early Childhood Development (2010, background): “Indeed, emerging literature on early childhood development (ECD) and ECD programs in Latin America emphasizes the role of parenting and supportive home environments (e.g., Behrman et al. 2004; Gertler and Fernald 2004; Fernald et al. 2005; Paxson and Schady 2006; and Schady 2006).”
Evaluating Anti-Poverty Programs (2005, positive): “Public access to the evaluation data has facilitated a number of valuable studies, indicating significant gains to health (Gertler, 2004), schooling (Schultz, 2004; Behrman et al., 2002) and food consumption (Hoddinott and Skoufias, 2004).

The Use of Matching Methods in Higher Education Research: Answering Whether Attendance at a 2-Year Institution Results in Differences in Educational Attainment (2009, positive): “See Lechner (2001) for a description of using matching methods in the case of multiple treatments and Behrman et al. (2004) for an example of using matching methods when the amount of treatment varies across observations.”

Evaluation in the Practice of Development (2008, positive): “Another example can be found in the study by Behrman et al. (2004) of the impacts on children’s cognitive skills and health status of longer exposure to a preschool program in Bolivia.”
