Abstract: Rather than testing a particular hypothesis or set of hypotheses, the study was designed to provide longitudinal information on a broad range of factors known to be associated with children's health and development, including the neighborhood conditions, economic conditions, parents' health and mental health, parents‟ marital status and the quality of parental relationships, parents' use of public programs, the availability of social support, and parent-child relationships. As such, the Study provides data that are relevant to a large number of questions and serves as a valuable resource for researchers interested in the life chances of children growing up in disadvantaged families.
