Effort Project. Parent experimental data and associated survey data

Parent experimental data and associated survey data: The dataset contains socioeconomic data and experimental measures of cognitive effort stemming from parents of a subset of the fifth-grade students who participated in the laboratory experiments. Effort-related non-cognitive (personality) variables that were collected for children were also collected for the parents, including Locus of Control, the Big Five, and Need for Cognition. The parents also completed a Raven matrices style IQ test. Data is also collected on parental perceptions of child's non-cognitive (personality) traits, how parents reward children for good grades, and Covid-related information including how parents and children were navigating the situation at work and school. It should be noted that many questions on this second survey that participating parents completed were repeated from the first parental survey administered when children were completing the experiments. If the same question was asked on first and second parental surveys, missing responses on second survey were filled in with non-missing responses from first survey. Responses may vary for certain questions depending on whether it was a different parent who answered the first versus second survey. Therefore, it is required that it was the same parent was answering in order for these missing responses to be imputed this way.
