Conflict of Interest

Institutions must file significant disclosures to the National Institutes of Health if they determine financial relationships could affect the design, conduct or reporting of the NIH-funded research. The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

Listed Research Project
Female Labor Force Participation and Child Outcomes

Project Narrative This project examines the relationship between women's employment and child outcomes, including health and education. It is designed to increase our understanding of, and by extension inform public policy and public health knowledge about, how the major global movement of women into the formal labor market is related to a range of child health outcomes. We focus on measures of child physical health (stunting, wasting, vaccinations, mortality, and receipt of medical care) and education, which is correlated with health outcomes in adulthood.

Sources: National Institutes of Health, public records requests filed at multiple public state universities

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.

Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.

ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
