- 1. Kids and teens on the net ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-008-X20010025821Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article examines the extent to which children have access to the Internet at home. It focuses on parents' knowledge of their children's use of the Net, the factors that contribute to or limit access, parental concerns about privacy, and the limitations parents place on using the Internet.
Release date: 2001-09-11 - Articles and reports: 81-003-X20000025526Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article studies the links among academic achievement, children's views of themselves, and adults' support during the transition to early adolescence. It uses the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth (NLSCY).
Release date: 2001-03-01 - Articles and reports: 11F0019M2001158Geography: CanadaDescription:
Several recent papers have cited non-linearities in the relationship between incomes of parents and their children as evidence of important intergenerational credit constraints. This paper argues that any pattern in the conditional expectation function can be justified by a properly constructed story with credit constraints. This raises questions about the validity of the approach. Quantile regressions provide an alternative test. Using data from Canadian tax files, this paper finds results contrary to the credit constraints hypothesis; the non-linearities in the regression function are driven by the low-ability (unconstrained) sons rather than high-ability (presumably constrained) sons.
