These programs include the Nurse Family Partnership, 16,17 Healthy Families America, 18,19 Healthy Start, 20,21 Early Head Start, 22,23 the Comprehensive Child Development Program, 24 — 26 and Early Start.27, 28 All of these programs have been evaluated by using randomized control designs but findings from these trials have been mixed, with some programs showing benefits and others failing to show benefits.29, 30 In a recent review, Howard and Brooks - Gunn30 found that home - visiting programs had reported benefits for a number of outcomes, including child abuse, child health care, quality of home environment, parenting, parental depression, and childhood cognitive skills.

In Denver, low - resource families who received home visiting showed modest benefits in children's language and cognitive development.102 In Elmira, only the intervention children whose mothers smoked cigarettes before the experiment experienced cognitive benefits.103 In Memphis, children of mothers with low psychological resources104 in the intervention group had higher grades and achievement test scores at age nine than their counterparts in the control group.105 Early Head Start also identified small, positive effects on children's cognitive abilities, though the change was for the program as a whole and not specific to home - visited families.106 Similarly, IHDP identified large cognitive effects at twenty - four and thirty - six months, but not at twelve months, so the effects can not be attributed solely to home - visiting services.107

The effect was small, but was identified in the whole program group, instead of only in a smaller subgroup.86 In Memphis, more positive interactions were observed in the subgroup of women who possessed low psychological resources.87 Likewise, home - visited mothers in Early Head Start were rated as more supportive during play with their children than controls, though the effect was small.88 Maternal sensitivity was also examined in Hawaii Healthy Start, the Healthy Families evaluations in San Diego and Alaska, and the Comprehensive Child Development Program, though none identified significant effects.

Most notably, home - visited families participating in Early Head Start reported experiencing significantly less stress in their parenting roles than did control families.95 The same pattern occurred in Queensland: mothers who received home - visiting services reported less stress in the parenting role than did mothers in the control group.96 Healthy Families programs in Alaska, San Diego, and Hawaii also examined parenting stress in their evaluations.

As we discuss below, one recent study found that family stability trumps family structure as it pertains to early cognitive development even after controlling for economic and parental resources.26 It has been shown that children living in stable single - parent families (that is, families that were headed by a single parent throughout childhood) do better than those living in unstable two - parent families (that is, families that had two parents present initially but then experienced a change in family structure).27 Another study finds that children living in stable cohabiting homes (that is, families where two parents cohabit throughout the child's life) do just as well as children living with cohabiting parents who eventually marry.28 But other research challenges the conclusion that it is family stability that is crucial for child wellbeing One study, for instance, found that children who experience two or more family transitions do not have worse behavioral problems or cognitive test scores than children who experience only one or no family transitions.

In the Elmira demonstration, intervention mothers were less likely to punish or physically restrain their children than mothers in the control group.62 Among home - visited families who participated in Early Start, less punitive parenting was observed, though the effect was modest.63 Several other programs have identified reductions in the frequency with which mothers spanked their children at thirty - six months, including Healthy Families San Diego, 64 Early Head Start, 65 and IHDP.66 No effects on harsh parenting were found in the CCDP.67

One evaluation conducted in Queensland, Australia, reported moderate reductions in depressive symptoms for mothers in the intervention group at the six - week follow - up.89 A subsequent follow - up, however, suggested that these benefits were not long lasting, as the depression effects had diminished by one year.90 Similarly, Healthy Families San Diego identified reductions in depression symptoms among program mothers during the first two years, but these effects, too, had diminished by year three.91 In Healthy Families New York, mothers at one site (that was supervised by a clinical psychologist) had lower rates of depression at one year (23 percent treatment vs. 38 percent controls).92 The Infant Health and Development program also demonstrated decreases in depressive symptoms after one year of home visiting, as well as at the conclusion of the program at three years.93 Among Early Head Start families, maternal depressive symptoms remained stable for the program group during the study and immediately after it ended, but decreased just before their children entered kindergarten.94 No program effects were found for maternal depression in the Nurse - Family Partnership, Hawaii Healthy Start, Healthy Families Alaska, or Early Start programs.

One randomized controlled trial comparing home - visited families with control participants who received other community services found a statistically significant difference in mean depressive symptoms at two years post-enrollment, but this contrast was nonsignificant at three years post - enrollment.15 A second study of Early Head Start found no differences in depressive symptoms between intervention and control group participants post-intervention, although a difference was detected at a longer - term follow - up prior to children's enrollment in kindergarten.10 Other randomized controlled trial studies have not found effects of home visitation on maternal depressive symptoms.12, 16,17

The positive results related to reading at 5.5 years are consistent with evaluations of Reach Out and Read, 36 — 38 a component activity of HS, and with the Early Head Start evaluation.31 In HS, similar findings were present at 2 to 4 months but not at 30 to 33 months, perhaps attenuated by the adoption of Reach Out and Read at some control sites during the intervention.

Although the exact measures differed, the absolute difference in the proportions of parents who reported ever slapping in the face or spanking with an object (overall: 4 %; randomization: 2 %; quasi-experimental: 6 %) was consistent with the 7 % difference in the proportions of parents who reported spanking their child in the past week in the Early Head Start evaluation.31 The HS effect is noticeable, given the overall lower reports of corporal punishment (14 % in the HS control group, compared with 54 % in the Early Head Start control group).
