ABSTRACT

This paper evaluates the impacts of a Brazilian home-based programme on violent behaviour of elementary school students. To identify the causal impact, it explores the variation between schools with potentially treated students and the municipalities that implemented the programme over the years. The results suggest a reduction in verbal or physical abuse, theft or robbery, and attack or threat by more than 5 percentage points in schools with treated students. There is also evidence that the effects are greater the sooner children participate in the programme, meaning that early years interventions can be an effective policy to reduce school violence.

以家庭为基础的幼儿计划和校园暴力：来自巴西的证据

摘要

本文评估了巴西家庭项目对小学生暴力行为的影响。为了确定因果关系，它探讨了可能接受治疗的学生的学校与多年来实施该计划的市政当局之间的差异。结果表明，在接受治疗的学生的学校中，言语或身体虐待、盗窃或抢劫、攻击或威胁减少了超过 5 个百分点。还有证据表明，儿童越早参与该计划，效果就越大，这意味着早期干预可以成为减少校园暴力的有效政策。
