This dataset supports an impact evaluation of a father engagement model within a home visiting program for early childhood development. The study was a cluster randomized trial conducted in Rohingya refugee camps and host communities in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh, led by New York University's Global TIES for Children. It examines the added impact of father-focused home visits and groups on father engagement, perceptions of learning and play, and caregiver well-being.
Use Cases
- Analyze the impact of father home visits on father engagement metrics compared to mother-only group visits.
- Examine correlations between father engagement activities and reported perceptions of learning and play.
- Assess changes in caregiver well-being and attitudes among fathers participating in the intervention.
- Evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the father engagement component using associated analysis data.
Strengths
- Data originates from a structured cluster randomized trial design, allowing for causal inference.
- Study involves multiple collaborating institutions including New York University, BRAC-IED, and the University of Pennsylvania.
- Focuses on a specific and understudied humanitarian context involving Rohingya refugees and host communities in Bangladesh.
Limitations
- Specific data structure, row count, column names, and file formats are not provided in the input.
- The dataset's scope is limited to a specific intervention and geographical context, reducing generalizability.
