Transitions from Preschool through High School: Family, Schools & Neighborhoods

描述(由申请人提供)：该项目将继续收集目前由NICHD赠款R01HD52646资助的收入动态小组研究(PSID)中关于儿童的数据。现有的赠款支持PSID儿童发展补充方案，该方案跟踪了1997年PSID家庭中0-12岁的儿童，通过三波数据收集，重点是在正在进行的具有全国代表性的家庭纵向研究中了解童年的社会人口、心理和经济方面。到2014年，原来队列中的所有儿童都将成年，新一代儿童将取代他们进入PSID家庭。我们的目标是在2014年收集新一代所有0-17岁儿童的信息，将研究方向从队列研究转向获得PSID家庭中所有儿童童年经历的信息，当他们形成自己的经济独立家庭时，他们将成为核心PSID的主要受访者。这些新数据将支持对儿童时期的健康、发展和幸福的研究；儿童特征与当代家庭决策和行为之间的关系；以及童年因素对这些人在整个生命过程中随后的社会、人口、经济和健康结果的影响，因为他们作为PSID的一部分被跟踪到未来。具体目标是：(1)设计并在2014年推出新的PSID儿童发展补充资料(CDS)，通过与主要照顾者(通常是母亲)和年龄较大的儿童(9-17岁)面谈，收集约6,800名0-17岁儿童的数据；(2)收集工作日和周末时间的日记，并获取所有儿童及其主要照顾者的唾液样本(用于随后的基因分析)；以及(3)处理、记录和分发新的CDS数据，包括量表组合、时间日记记录，并链接到国家教育统计中心(NCES)的共同核心数据(CCD)和私立学校调查(PSS)。新的CDS将提供关于具有全国代表性的大样本儿童的丰富数据，其中包括非裔美国儿童的过多样本和具有代表性的移民儿童样本。CDS数据将通过PSID在线数据中心免费提供，该中心使用所有浪潮的跨年变量索引以及其他变量选择选项提供定制的摘录和代码簿。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This project will continue the collection of data on children in the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) that is currently funded under NICHD Grant R01HD52646. The existing grant supported the PSID Child Development Supplement, which followed a cohort of children in PSID families who were 0-12 years of age in 1997 through three waves of data collection and focused on understanding the socio-demographic, psychological, and economic aspects of childhood in an on-going nationally-representative longitudinal study of families. By 2014, all of the children in the original cohort will have reachd adulthood, and a new generation of children will have replaced them in PSID families. Our goal is to collect information in 2014 on all children aged 0-17 years in this new generation, shifting the orientation from a cohort study to one that obtains information on the childhood experiences of all children in PSID families, who will become primary respondents in the Core PSID when they form their own economically-independent households. These new data will support studies of health, development, and well-being in childhood; the relationship between children's characteristics and contemporaneous family decisionmaking and behavior; and the effects of childhood factors on subsequent social, demographic, economic, and health outcomes over the entire lifecourse for these individuals as they are followed into the future as part of PSID. The specific aims are to: (1) Design and field a new PSID Child Development Supplement (CDS) in 2014, collecting data on approximately 6,800 children aged 0-17 years through interviews with primary caregivers (typically the mother) and with older children themselves (aged 9- 17 years); (2) Collect weekday and weekend time diaries and obtain saliva samples (for subsequent genetic analysis) for all children and their primary caregivers; and (3) Process, document, and distribute the new CDS data, with scale composites, time diary recodes, and links to National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) Common Core of Data (CCD) and Private School Survey (PSS). The new CDS will provide rich data on a large, nationally-representative sample of children that includes an over-sample of African American children and a representative sample of immigrant children. CDS data will be available free of charge through the PSID Online Data Center, which provides customized extracts and codebooks using a cross-year index of variables across all waves as well as other variable-selection options.
