The National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health A nationally representative sample of youth who were in grades 7 through 12 as of 1994. Adolescents, their parents, siblings, friends, romantic partners, and school administrators participate in interviews. The Michigan Study of Adolescent and Adult Life Transitions (MSALT) The MSALT researches the impact of transitions on adolescent development in the areas of academic and role related behaviors, choices, and outcomes, by collecting information from surveys, record data, phone interviews, and intensive face to face interviews. Early Childhood Longitudinal Study The ECLS focuses largely on children's status at birth and at various points in childhood; children's transitions to nonparental care, early education programs, and school; and children's experiences and growth through the fifth grade. |
