Dataset Description:
This dataset integrates longitudinal genetic data with measures of parental investments and child skill development from early childhood. It was used by Mikkel Aagaard Houmark, Victor Ronda, and Michael Rosholm in their 2024 American Economic Review paper to study the dynamic interaction between biological and environmental factors in skill formation. The data enables the estimation of direct, indirect, and family genetic effects across early developmental stages.
