We use heterogeneity in the timing of television’s introduction to different local markets to identify the effect of preschool television exposure on standardized test scores during adolescence. Our preferred point estimate indicates that an additional year of preschool television exposure raises average adolescent test scores by about 0.02 standard deviations. We are able to reject negative effects larger than about 0.03 standard deviations per year of television exposure.

Our first set of results does not allow the effect of an MBA to vary across the three types of programs or with program quality. Table 5 presents the results for men. The OLS results without ability controls yield an estimate of a 9.4% return for obtaining an MBA. The return falls to 6.3% when GMAT scores and undergraduate grades are included in the regression. There is a positive and significant return to math ability but no return to verbal ability. 29 For males, one standard deviation increase in math ability, 8.66 points, yields an 8% increase in wages. ...

If we want to write a program to find the standard deviation of a set of test scores we need to have a variable that could hold multiple integers instead of assigning an identifier for each score. An array is the answer to our need. An array is used to store and process a collection of data of the same type. Let me emphasize that an array can hold multiple values of the same type; it cannot hold values of different types (we saw that a struct can do that). An array may also be called a list. First let...
