National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth : understanding the early years : field test : interviewer's manual.: CS89-0038/1999E-PDF

The goal of this field test is to evaluate the administration of instruments which may be added to the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth (NLSCY) to provide improved data on development and learning for children under the age of six. This is in response to the federal government's increased recognition of the importance of early childhood as a foundation of human development. The federal Speech from the Throne in September 1997 committed the government to monitor children's readiness to learn over time. The instruments which are being evaluated will complement the data from the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test - Revised (PPVT-R) and data on the child provided by the Person Most Knowledgeable (PMK) about the selected child and the teacher (for children in school).
