Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN): Substance Use Follow-Up, 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 Substance Use Follow-Up instrument. It was adapted from the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) and was administered to subjects in Cohorts 15 and 18. It obtained information regarding the subject's use of specific drugs. It is closely related to PROJECT ON HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN CHICAGO NEIGHBORHOODS (PHDCN): SUBSTANCE USE, WAVE 1, 1994-1997 (ICPSR 13602), PROJECT ON HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN CHICAGO NEIGHBORHOODS (PHDCN): SUBSTANCE USE, WAVE 2, 1997-2000 (ICPSR 13659), and PROJECT ON HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN CHICAGO NEIGHBORHOODS (PHDCN): SUBSTANCE USE, WAVE 3, 2000-2002 (ICPSR 13743). |

Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN): Suicide Interview, 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. The Suicide Interview was administered to subjects for Cohorts 12, 15, and 18. The instrument was adapted from a section of the Major Depression Disorder module of the Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children (DISC 4) and obtained information about the subject in terms of lifetime occurrence and frequency in the past year of suicidal thoughts, as well as a more detailed set of questions regarding past suicide attempts. A set of questions regarding completed suicide of any friends or family was also included. |

Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN): Things I Can Do If I Try, 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. The Things I Can Do If I Try survey was a self-efficacy instrument designed for children. It was given to subjects in Cohorts 9, 12, and 15. This instrument was developed specifically for the PHDCN design, and it included an assessment of efficacy in five domains: future, school, neighborhood, home, and social. |
