Description

Definition
EDPRESCHYRS reports during which year(s) the young child household member attended a childcare center or preschool training center.

The question wording was "What establishment did (NAME) attend? How many years?" The universe is generally restricted to children receiving childcare or preschool training outside the home during the current year, so the response codes (current year, last year, year before last) may indicate the earliest year that such attendance began.
