Data Collection Event
EMIGARDE - 3 years
When the children were 3 years old, parental interviews (mostly with mothers) were conducted and child care quality assessments were done.
Parental interviews provided information regarding the family characteristics (socio-demographics of both parents, maternal depression) and the child characteristics. Lifetime maternal depression was assessed with a modified life-time depression section of the Diagnostic Interview Schedule.
Participating child care services (attended regularly by children) received a visit. Center-based child care quality was assessed with the ECERS–R for children 2½–4 years and with the ITERS–R for children under 2½ years. Family-based child care quality was assessed with the FDCRS.
A saliva sample was also collected.
