• Resumen

  • En este trabajo se evalúa el impacto de la escolarización temprana sobre el desarrollo de las habilidades cognitivas y no cognitivas de los niños de cinco/seis años de edad. Para llevar a cabo el estudio, se hace uso de una base de datos inédita que procede de un estudio piloto llevado a cabo por el Instituto Nacional de Evaluación Educativa (INEE) en el año 2007. El análisis empírico hace uso de técnicas de Propensity Score Analysis que permiten afrontar el sesgo de selección que amenaza las estimaciones.

    Nuestros resultados muestran que el número de años en que un niño ha estado escolarizado en educación infantil influye positivamente en las capacidades cognitivas y no cognitivas con que éste accede a la educación obligatoria.
