National Maternal and Infant Health Survey, 1988: Longitudinal Follow-up, 1991
National Center for Health Statistics (U.S.), 2013
United States Department of Health and Human Services. National Center for Health Statistics. National Maternal and Infant Health Survey, 1988: Longitudinal Follow-up, 1991. ICPSR06401-v1. Ann Arbor, MI: Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research [distributor], 1995. doi:10.3886/ICPSR06401.v1

This follow-up to the NATIONAL MATERNAL AND INFANT HEALTH SURVEY, 1988 (NMIHS) (ICPSR 9730) consists of three components that provide information on early childhood morbidity and health. The Live Birth Survey (Part 1) obtained data on national health issues affecting children, such as child development, effects of low birth weight, childhood injury, child care, pediatric care, health insurance coverage, child safety, and acute and chronic childhood illnesses. For the Medical Provider Survey (Part 12), respondents to the Live Birth Survey were asked to provide the names of all medical providers and hospitals where their children were diagnosed, treated, and/or admitted. Each health care provider was asked to supply information on its organization, the child's health status and history, and each visit or hospitalization. The Fetal and Infant Death Survey (Part 21) interviewed women who were identified through the 1988 NMIHS as having lost a fetus or an infant during the study period. These respondents were reinterviewed to gather information about their health and about any pregnancies since their loss in 1988. The 1991 follow-up data can be merged with data from the 1988 NMIHS, which was designed to explore factors that cause negative pregnancy outcomes.

Baltimore, MD: Johns Hopkins University, Bloomberg School of Public Health, Women's and Children's Health Policy Center [producer], 2004.

The primary goal of the National Evaluation was to access whether the Healthy Steps for Young Children Program was successful in reorienting pediatric practice to emphasize child development issues, increasing parents' knowledge about early nurturing of infants and parents' involvement in their children's development, and in promoting parents' practices that improve the health, safety and health care utilization of their children.

The National Head Start/Public School Early Childhood Transition Demonstration Study data contain information about the Transition Demonstration Programs and their impact on children, families, schools, and communities. Schools were randomly assigned to either a Transition Demonstration group or to a Comparison group with a total of 7,515 former Head Start children and families enrolling in the study during 1992/93 and 1993/94 school years. Thousands of other children and families, however, participated in the Transition Demonstration Program, since supports and educational enhancements were offered to all children and families in the classrooms.

Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN): School Interview, Wave 2, 1997-2000
Earls, Felton, 2006
Earls, Felton J., Jeanne Brooks-Gunn, Stephen W. Raudenbush, and Robert J. Sampson. PROJECT ON HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN CHICAGO NEIGHBORHOODS (PHDCN): SCHOOL INTERVIEW, WAVE 2, 1997-2000 [Computer file]. ICPSR13654-v1. Boston, MA: Harvard Medical School [producer], 2002. Ann Arbor, MI: Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research [distributor], 2006-05-17. doi:10.3886/ICPSR13654

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 School Interview protocol. This was adapted from the school section of the Youth Interview Schedule used in the Philadelphia Family Management Study. It included sections addressing school climate, school safety, types of classes the subject had taken, the subject's attitude toward school, past history of repeating or skipping grades, and participation in activities within and outside of school. It was administered to subjects in Cohorts 9, 12, and 15.
