Asset Building Financial Inclusion Report

Interviews With Mothers of Young Children in the SEED for Oklahoma Kids College Savings Experiment

By CSD • November 26, 2012November 4, 2021

This report presents findings from a qualitative analysis of interviews with 60 mothers (40 in the treatment group and 20 in the control group) conducted approximately 2 to 3 years after the birth of sampled children. To understand the range of experiences in the SEED OK experiment across race/ethnicity and social class, the study oversampled three minority groups (Africans Americans, American Indians, and Hispanics). As a result, the in-depth interview sample disproportionally represents these groups.
