Note: The ECLS-B was designed to describe the earliest experiences and relationships in children's lives. The study provides descriptive data on 1) children's health status at birth and at regular intervals during early childhood; 2) children's growth and development in critical domains; 3) children's transitions to child care and early childhood education programs, kindergarten and beyond; 4) father involvement; and 5) school readiness. The longitudinal nature of the study enables researchers to study children's physical, cognitive, language, social and emotional development and to relate children's growth and development to variations in their experiences.
Description: The Early Childhood Longitudinal Study is designed to provide decision makers, researchers, child care providers, teachers, and parents with detailed information about children's early life experiences. The birth cohort of the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study (ECLS-B) looks at children's health, development, care, and education during the formative years from birth through first grade.
