PHDCN Child Care Research Partnership
A collaborative partnership between the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN), the Child Care Program of the Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS), the Children's Services of the Chicago Department of Human Services (CDHS), and the Early Childhood Education Department of the Chicago Public Schools (CPS). The project addresses the following research questions: (1) What is the actual supply of pre- and after-school care at the neighborhood level, and how is it utilized by representative families across city neighborhoods?; (2) How does the quality of early childhood care, in center- or home-based settings, vary within and between neighborhoods?; (3) How does quality, continuity, availability and cost of pre-school child care relate to family characteristics and to child outcomes?; (4) How well do neighborhood and family characteristics predict parent involvement and parent advocacy?; (5) How strongly do the effects of neighborhood, family, and child care factors relate to child outcomes?; and (6) How many low-income families use the State of Illinois child care subsidy, what are the characteristics of families who do and who do not use the subsidy, and is there variation in use of subsidized care as a function of neighborhood characteristics?

Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN): Antonucci Map, Wave 3, 2000-2002
The Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN) was a large-scale, interdisciplinary study of how families, schools, and neighborhoods affect child and adolescent development. One component of the PHDCN was the Longitudinal Cohort Study, which was a series of coordinated longitudinal studies that followed over 6,000 randomly selected children, adolescents, and young adults, and their primary caregivers over time to examine the changing circumstances of their lives, as well as the personal characteristics, that might lead them toward or away from a variety of antisocial behaviors. Numerous measures were administered to respondents to gauge various aspects of human development, including individual differences, as well as family, peer, and school influences. One such measure was the Antonucci Map. It was administered to subjects in Cohorts 3, 6, 9, and 12 and provided information regarding the subject's close friendships.

The Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN) was a large-scale, interdisciplinary study of how families, schools, and neighborhoods affect child and adolescent development. One component of the PHDCN was the Longitudinal Cohort Study, which was a series of coordinated longitudinal studies that followed over 6,000 randomly selected children, adolescents, and young adults, and their primary caregivers over time to examine the changing circumstances of their lives, as well as the personal characteristics, that might lead them toward or away from a variety of antisocial behaviors. Numerous measures were administered to respondents to gauge various aspects of human development, including individual differences, as well as family, peer, and school influences. One such measure was the Child and Adolescent Behavior Rating Scale. It obtained an interviewer rating of the behavior of all subjects in Cohorts 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15. It recorded the amount of time the interviewer spent observing the subject and whether this observation took place only during the interview with the subject or during the interview and at other times. The subject was also rated on various behaviors.
