Early educational intervention has been proposed to partially offset the impacts of poverty and inadequate learning environments on child development and school success. A broad range of early educational interventions are found to produce meaningful, lasting effects on cognitive, social, and schooling outcomes. However, all interventions are not equally effective. Two major U.S. programs perform relatively poorly. Research provides some guidance regarding the features of highly effective programs, but much remains to be learned. New experimental studies of key program features would have a high payoff.
早期教育干预被提议用来部分弥补贫困和学习环境不佳对儿童发展和学校成功的影响。广泛的早期教育干预被发现对认知、社会和学校成果产生有意义且持久的影响。然而，并非所有干预措施都同样有效。两个主要的美国项目的效果相对较差。研究为高度有效的项目特征提供了一些指导，但仍有许多需要学习。对关键项目特征的新的实验研究将具有很高的回报。
