This project compares intellectual development of children in the U.S. to the United Kingdom, comparing test scores on mathematics and language, and also reports of conduct problems. The general goal is to test whether findings from research in the U.S. also appear in data from another culture. The surveys in the two countries are designed to be highly comparable, thus permitting direct comparisons of effects in the two locations. Factors to be studied include family size, intact marriage, and parental work hours. This study is the first to permit direct comparisons of results from the large body of knowledge about U.S. families to results from another culture.

该项目比较了美国和英国儿童的智力发展，比较了数学和语言的考试成绩，以及行为问题的报告。 总体目标是测试美国的研究结果是否也出现在另一种文化的数据中。 在这两个国家进行的调查旨在具有高度可比性，从而可以直接比较两个地点的影响。 需要研究的因素包括家庭规模、完整的婚姻和父母的工作时间。 这项研究是第一个允许直接比较来自美国家庭的大量知识与来自另一种文化的结果的研究。
