DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed study seeks to take a careful look at the characteristics of a policy relevant population of children with homeless experiences and the relations between these experiences and their educational well-being. This study will employ innovative theoretical and methodological approaches which address critiques of the existing body of research. By using a comprehensive, developmental epidemiological conceptual framework and a state-of-the-art municipal, integrated data system, this study will examine children's early homeless experiences from birth through the end of third grade. It will do so for a policy-relevant 3rd-grade cohort of public school children in the poorest of the 10 largest cities in the US-Philadelphia. The population-based approach for the integration of administrative records across all public service systems allows for careful control of other child and family risk factors that are known to co- occur with homelessness. Furthermore, the longitudinal nature of the data allows for a careful look at the multiple developmental pathways between early risks, homelessness, and multiple educational outcomes.

说明(申请人提供)：拟议的研究试图仔细研究与政策有关的有无家可归经历的儿童群体的特点，以及这些经历与他们的教育福祉之间的关系。这项研究将采用创新的理论和方法，解决对现有研究机构的批评。通过使用全面的发展流行病学概念框架和最先进的市政综合数据系统，这项研究将审查儿童从出生到三年级结束的早期无家可归经历。它将为美国10个最大城市中最贫穷的费城的一群与政策相关的公立学校三年级儿童这样做。在所有公共服务系统中采用以人口为基础的行政记录整合办法，可以仔细控制已知与无家可归现象同时发生的其他儿童和家庭风险因素。此外，数据的纵向性质使我们能够仔细研究早期风险、无家可归和多种教育结果之间的多种发展路径。
