项目摘要

The Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study (FFS) is a nationally representative, birth cohort study of approximately 4900 children born in large US cities (populations of 200,000 or more) between 1998 and 2000. The study includes: (1) interviews with mothers and fathers at birth and again when children are 1, 3, 5 and 9 years old, (2) medical records for a subset of mothers and children at birth, (3) in-home assessments of children and their home environments when children are 3, 5, and 9 years old, (4) interviews with children at age 9, (5) interviews with teachers when children are 3, 5, and 9 years old and (6) DNA samples from mothers and children when children are age 9. The study also includes in-depth, longitudinal interviews with a subset of approximately 75 couples during the first four years after the child's birth. The study design called for a large oversample of births to unmarried parents, and thus the data are a valuable resource for studying health disparities among minority and economically disadvantaged populations. To date, more than 1300 researchers have downloaded the public use data, and Google Scholar lists 730 scholarly articles, theses, books, and abstracts using the FFS data for the period covered by the current NICHD grant, 2006-2011. We seek funding to conduct another round of interviews with mothers and children when children are 15 years old. Our specific aims are to: " Update information on children's health and development and collect new data on health and health risk behavior, school performance, and anti- and pro-social behavior when children are age 15 " Update information on contextual factors, including families, neighborhoods, schools and peers, when children are age 15, including retrospective data on family experiences since the last interview " Collect saliva samples from 3,600 children at age 15 to be used for future methylation analysis Approximately 3600 mothers and 3100 children will be interviewed via phone. These phone interviews will be 55 minutes for mothers and 45 minutes for children. Five hundred adolescents will be interviewed in person for approximately 1 hour.

脆弱家庭和儿童福祉研究 (FFS) 是一项具有全国代表性的出生队列研究，研究对象为 1998 年至 2000 年间在美国大城市（人口超过 200,000 人）出生的约 4900 名儿童。该研究包括：(1) 对母亲和儿童的访谈。出生时的父亲以及孩子 1、3、5 和 9 岁时的父亲，(2) 部分母亲和孩子的医疗记录出生，(3) 3、5、9 岁时对儿童及其家庭环境的家庭评估，(4) 9 岁时对儿童的访谈，(5) 3、5 岁时对教师的访谈， (6) 孩子 9 岁时的母亲和孩子的 DNA 样本。该研究还包括在孩子出生后的头四年内对大约 75 对夫妇进行了深入的纵向访谈。该研究设计要求对未婚父母生育的婴儿进行大量抽样，因此这些数据是研究少数族裔和经济弱势群体健康差异的宝贵资源。迄今为止，已有 1300 多名研究人员下载了公共使用数据，Google Scholar 列出了 2006 年至 2011 年当前 NICHD 拨款涵盖期间使用 FFS 数据的 730 篇学术文章、论文、书籍和摘要。我们寻求资金，以便在孩子 15 岁时对母亲和孩子进行另一轮访谈。我们的具体目标是：“更新有关儿童健康和发展的信息，并收集有关儿童 15 岁时健康和健康风险行为、学校表现以及反社会和亲社会行为的新数据”更新有关背景因素（包括家庭）的信息、社区、学校和同龄人，当孩子 15 岁时，包括自上次访谈以来家庭经历的回顾性数据” 收集 3,600 名 15 岁儿童的唾液样本，用于未来的甲基化分析。大约 3600 名母亲和 3100 名儿童将通过电话接受采访。这些电话采访对于母亲来说为 55 分钟，对于儿童来说为 45 分钟。将对 500 名青少年进行约 1 小时的面对面访谈。
