Abstract

This project surveys parents of about 1000 Dutch children about parental investments during the school closures through time use and monetary investments, school-parent interaction and subjective beliefs about effects of the school closures on children's well-being. The rich background data of the underlying panel survey allows the researchers to analyze gaps in these factors by socio-economic status, parental education and migrant status, as well as by whether labor market shocks by the pandemic have affected parenting behavior, too. In the longer run, the project will be able to merge the survey data on contemporary mechanisms during the crisis with administrative data to trace effects into objective outcomes on educational performance.
