This article uses administrative data on nonelderly, nondisabled households that received U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development rental assistance between 1995 and 2002 combined with data from other sources to estimate the effect of low-income housing programs on these households'labor earnings and employment. Using longitudinal data to explain the change in these measures of market labor supply makes it possible to account for immutable, unobservable household characteristics that are determinants of market labor supply and correlated with program participa tion. Employing a large random sample of households throughout the country makes it possible to produce estimates of the national average effect of each type of housing assistance. Using administrative data makes it possible to identify accurately the type of housing assistance received. The results indicate that each broad type of housing assistance has substantial negative effects on labor earnings that are somewhat smaller for tenant-based housing vouchers than for either type of project-based assistance. They also suggest that participation in the little-used Family Self-Sufficiency program, an initiative within the public housing and housing voucher programs to promote self-sufficiency, significantly increases labor earnings.read more

Acute effects of moderate aerobic exercise on specific aspects of executive function in different age and fitness groups: A meta-analysis.
TL;DR: A higher sensitivity of executive function to acute aerobic exercise was found in individuals undergoing developmental changes, and preadolescent children and older adults in particular might strategically use a single aerobic exercise session to prepare for a situation demanding high executive control.

Welfare, the Earned Income Tax Credit, and the Labor Supply of Single Mothers
Bruce D. Meyer,Dan T. Rosenbaum +1 more
TL;DR: The authors show that a large share of the increase in work by single mothers can be attributed to the EITC and other tax changes, with smaller shares for welfare benet cuts, welfare waivers, training programs and child care programs.

“… And a suitable living environment”: The failure of housing programs to deliver on neighborhood quality
Sandra J. Newman,Ann B. Schnare +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the relative performance of housing programs in terms of neighborhood quality was evaluated using neighborhood characteristics surrounding assisted housing units and assessed the direction of assisted housing policy in light of this information, concluding that project-based assistance programs do little to improve the quality of recipients' neighborhoods relative to those of welfare households.
