We illustrate a causal latent transition model to evaluate the effects of educational programs administered to pupils in the 6th and 7th grades during their middle school period. The programs are conducted in an Italian region and focus on improving non-cognitive abilities. The interest is in evaluating the effects on the skills acquired in the 8th grade in Italian and Mathematics. The model can be cast in the hidden Markov literature and is formulated as an extension of Rubin's causal model based on potential versions of discrete time-varying latent variables.

Abstract
We illustrate a causal latent transition model to evaluate the effects of educational programs administered to pupils in the 6th and 7th grades during their middle school period. The programs are conducted in an Italian region and focus on improving non-cognitive abilities. The interest is in evaluating the effects on the skills acquired in the 8th grade in Italian and Mathematics. The model can be cast in the hidden Markov literature and is formulated as an extension of Rubin's causal model based on potential versions of discrete time-varying latent variables.
