タイトル：The effect of violence on health: The experience of East Timorese children (jointly with Gabriel Fuentes-Cordoba and Mingchao Sun)
要旨：East Timor went through the surge of violence on the path to its independence gained in 2002. The violence left the newly born country scarred and stunted its economic development. Violence also adversely affects child development. This study estimates the effect of prenatal and postnatal exposures to violence on child health status by exploiting temporal and geographical variations in violence. We combine the individual-level data from Demographic and Health Survey conducted in 2003 with the data on timing and location of violence from the Uppsala Conflict Data Program. Our results indicate heterogeneous prenatal impacts of violence exposures between boys and girls. We find that the exposure to violence during the first trimester of pregnancy decreases height for age z-scores by about 0.5 standard deviations and increases the probability of stunting by about 15 percentage points among boys, whereas no significant effects are found among girls. We also find no impact of postnatal exposure to violence among both boys and girls.
