Shocks and their consequences across and within households in Rural Zimbabwe (2006, background): “ Alderman, Hoddinott and Kinsey (2004) show, using an older cohort of children residing in these localities and who were adversely affected by the 1982–84 drought in Zimbabwe, that drought shocks have permanent effects in terms of reductions in attained height in young adulthood.”
Shocks, Coping, and Outcomes for Pakistan's Poor: Health Risks Predominate (2009, background): “This shows that more effective risk coping is vital to efforts to enhance the human capital outcomes for the poor, something which has often been suspected but rarely quantified (Alderman et al., 2006).”
Weather shocks and health at birth in Colombia (2014, background): “Poor health at birth adversely affects health in childhood and adulthood (Almond et al., 2005; Black et al., 2007, Alderman et al., 2006; Almond, 2006) and educational outcomes (Behrman and Rosenzweig 2004; Glewwe et al., 2001).”
Under the Weather: Health, Schooling, and Economic Consequences of Early-Life Rainfall. (2009, background): “By contrast, existing work must make the best of datasets that have a much more restricted set of outcome variables available, such as census data (Almond 2006), vital statistics records (Royer 2009), or smaller-scale special-purpose datasets (Behrman and Rosenzweig 2004; Alderman et al. 2006).”
Schooling, Violent Conflict, and Gender in Burundi (2011, neutral): “Alderman, Hoddinott, and Kinsey (2006) ﬁnd that Zimbabwean children affected by the civil war in the 1970s completed fewer grades of schooling or started school later than those not affected by the shocks.”
Got milk? The impact of Heifer International's livestock donation programs in Rwanda on nutritional outcomes (2014, background): “A study of drought and civil war in the first two years of a child's life has shown an association with reduced child height and schooling (Alderman et al., 2006), while beneficial rains in the year of a girl's birth are associated with an increase in her adult height, years of schooling, and…”
Fate and Fear: Risk and its Consequences in Africa (2008, background): “Alderman et al. (2004) trace the impact of the 1982/83/84 droughts in Zimbabwe, as well as exposure to the civil war preceding independence, on longer-term measures of child health and education in the 1990s in a rich panel data set in particular resettlement areas.”
Adoption of weather‐index insurance: learning from willingness to pay among a panel of households in rural Ethiopia (2013, neutral): “These circumstances translate into a reduction in lifetime earnings on the order of 14 percent (Alderman, Hoddinott, and Kinsey 2006).”
Civil War, Crop Failure, and Child Stunting in Rwanda (2007, positive): “6 We adopt the approach of Alderman et al. (2006) in excluding 45 children who have a heightfor-age z-score of less than 6 or greater than 6, as these extreme scores are probably due to measurement errors in either child height or age.”
Rising Food Prices in Sub-Saharan Africa: Poverty Impact and Policy Responses (2008, background): “If higher food prices lead to lower caloric intake and an increase in child malnutrition, this could have additional negative effects (e.g. Del Rosso 1999; Alderman et al. 2006).”
