Abstract：This paper examines the effects of cable television exposure during early school age on a variety of non-cognitive outcomes in adolescence in rural China. Using household and village survey data from the China Family Panel Studies in 2010, we exploit heterogeneity in the timing of cable television’s introduction to villages. We find strong evidence that more exposure to cable television during early school-age period (ages 6-8) raises a child’s confidence level and study behavior. No effect on schooling outcome is observed.
