Temple, Judy A., and Arthur J. Reynolds. "Benefits and costs of investments in preschool education: Evidence from the Child–Parent Centers and related programs." Economics of Education Review 26.1 (2007): 126-144. Education Research Complete. EBSCO. Web. 20 Sept. 2010.
            This article discusses the benefits of preschool programs but looking into 3 different types.  It gives strong evidence that the consistently positive economic returns of high-quality preschool programs exceed most other educational interventions, especially those that begin during the school-age years such as reduced class sizes in the elementary grades, grade retention, and youth job training.
