The caregiver and, when the child is old enough, both the caregiver and the child will be interviewed every three to four years with a quantitative survey. The height and weight of each child will also be measured and community level questionnaires will be completed for each sentinel site at every data collection round.\n\nRound 1 of the study followed 2,000 children (aged between 6 and 18 months in 2002) and their households, from both urban and rural communities, in each of the four countries (8,000 children in total). Data were also collected on an older cohort of 1,000 children aged 7 to 8 years in each country, in order to provide a basis for comparison with the younger children when they reach that age. \n\nRound 2 of the study returned to the same children who were aged 1-year-old in Round 1 when they were aged approximately 5-years-old, and to the children aged 8-years-old in Round 1 when they were approximately 12-years-old. \n\nRound 3 of the study returned to the same children again when they were aged 7 to 8 years (the same as the older cohort in Round 1) and 14 to 15 years. It is envisaged that subsequent survey waves will take place in 2013 and 2016. Thus the younger children are being tracked from infancy to their mid-teens and the older children through into adulthood, when some will become parents themselves."},"version_statement":{"version_notes":"Date of First Release: 24 April 2014\n\nFile last updated: 19 May 2014"},"holdings":[{"text":"","location":"","callno":"","uri":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.5255\/UKDA-SN-5307-2"}],"study_info":{"keywords":[{"keyword":"AGE","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"DEATH","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"GENDER","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"SCHOOLCHILDREN","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"ETHIOPIA","uri":"","vocab":"G"},{"keyword":"INDIA","uri":"","vocab":"G"},{"keyword":"PERU","uri":"","vocab":"G"},{"keyword":"VIET NAM","uri":"","vocab":"G"},{"keyword":"HOUSEHOLDS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"FAMILIES","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"MOTHERS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"CHILDREN","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"FATHERS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"BIRTH WEIGHT","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"HEALTH","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"POVERTY","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"LITERACY","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"LANGUAGE SKILLS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"ETHNIC GROUPS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"DISASTERS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"FUELS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"LIVESTOCK","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"HEIGHT (PHYSIOLOGY)","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"WEIGHT (PHYSIOLOGY)","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"HOUSEHOLD BUDGETS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"LAND OWNERSHIP","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"URBAN AREAS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"RURAL AREAS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"CAREGIVERS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"FOOD AID","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"FOOD","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"COST OF LIVING","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"CONSUMER GOODS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"TIME BUDGETS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"THEFT","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"ANTHROPOMETRIC DATA","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"CONSCRIPTION","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"IMPRISONMENT","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"ANDHRA PRADESH","uri":"","vocab":"G"},{"keyword":"TRAVELLING TIME","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"SLEEP","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"DOMESTIC RESPONSIBILITIES","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"HOMEWORK","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"DEBILITATIVE ILLNESS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"POPULATION MIGRATION","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"2002","uri":"","vocab":"Y"},{"keyword":"2003","uri":"","vocab":"Y"},{"keyword":"2004","uri":"","vocab":"Y"},{"keyword":"2005","uri":"","vocab":"Y"},{"keyword":"2006","uri":"","vocab":"Y"},{"keyword":"2007","uri":"","vocab":"Y"},{"keyword":"2008","uri":"","vocab":"Y"},{"keyword":"2009","uri":"","vocab":"Y"},{"keyword":"HOUSEHOLD HEAD'S EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"HOUSING CONDITIONS","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"BUILDING SERVICES","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"WATER PROPERTIES","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"ANXIETY","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"RELIGIOUS AFFILIATION","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"ANTENATAL CARE","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"MOTHER'S EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"FATHER'S EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND","uri":"","vocab":"S"},{"keyword":"LEISURE TIME","uri":"","vocab":"S"}],"topics":[{"topic":"Social indicators and quality of life - Society and culture","vocab":"","uri":""},{"topic":"Time use - Society and culture","vocab":"","uri":""},{"topic":"Youth - Social stratification and groupings","vocab":"","uri":""},{"topic":"Child development and child rearing - Social stratification and groupings","vocab":"","uri":""}],"abstract":"Young Lives: An International Study of Childhood Poverty is a collaborative project investigating the changing nature of childhood poverty in selected developing countries. The UK\u2019s Department for International Development (DFID) is funding the first three-year phase of the project.\n\nYoung Lives involves collaboration between Non Governmental Organisations (NGOs) and the academic sector. In the UK, the project is being run by Save the Children-UK together with an academic consortium that comprises the University of Reading, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, South Bank University, the Institute of Development Studies at Sussex University and the South African Medical Research Council.\n\nThe study is being conducted in Ethiopia, India (in Andhra Pradesh), Peru and Vietnam. These countries were selected because they reflect a range of cultural, geographical and social contexts and experience differing issues facing the developing world; high debt burden, emergence from conflict, and vulnerability to environmental conditions such as drought and flood.\n\nObjectives of the study\nThe Young Lives study has three broad objectives:\n\u2022 producing good quality panel data about the changing nature of the lives of children in poverty.\n\u2022 trace linkages between key policy changes and child poverty\n\u2022 informing and responding to the needs of policy makers, planners and other stakeholders\nThere will also be a strong education and media element, both in the countries where the project takes place, and in the UK.\n\nThe study takes a broad approach to child poverty, exploring not only household economic indicators such as assets and wealth, but also child centred poverty measures such as the child\u2019s physical and mental health, growth, development and education. These child centred measures are age specific so the information collected by the study will change as the children get older.\n\nFurther information about the survey, including publications, can be downloaded from the <a href='http:\/\/www.younglives.org.uk\/'>Young Lives<\/a> website.\n\nConstructed Files:\nThe Rounds 1-3 Constructed Files, 2002-2009 are combined sub-sets of selected variables from Round 1, 2 and 3 of the Young Lives survey.

A rigorous and comprehensive series of checks was carried out to ensure the quality of the data and documentation.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdFirstly, checks were made that the number of cases and variables matched the depositor's records. Secondly, checks were made that all variables had variable labels and all nominal (categorical) variables had value labels. Where possible, either with reference to the documentation and\/or in communication with the depositor, absent labels were created. Thirdly, logical checks were performed to ensure that nominal (categorical) variables had values within the range defined (either by value labels or in the depositor's documentation). Lastly, any data or documentation that breached confidentiality rules were altered or suppressed to preserve anonymity.\n\nAll notable and\/or outstanding problems discovered are detailed under the 'Data and documentation problems' heading below.\n\nData and documentation problems\nNone. \n\nData conversion information\nFrom January 2003 onwards, almost all data conversions have been performed using software developed by the UK Data Archive. This enables standardisation of the conversion methods and ensures optimal data quality. In addition to its own data processing\/conversion code, this software uses the SPSS and StatTransfer command processors to perform certain format translations. Although data conversion is automated, all data files are also subject to visual inspection by a member of the Archive\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds Data Services team.\n\nWith some format conversions, data, and more especially internal metadata (i.e. variable labels, value labels, missing value definitions, data type information), will inevitably be lost or truncated owing to the differential limits of the proprietary formats. A UK Data Archive Data Dictionary file (generally in Rich Text Format (RTF)) is usually provided for each data file, enabling viewing and searching of the internal metadata as it existed in the originating format. These files are called: [data file name]_UKDA_Data_Dictionary.rtf \n\nImportant information about the data format supplied\n\nThe links below provide important information about the Archive's data supply formats. Some of this information is specific to the ingest format of the data, i.e. the format in which the Archive received the data from the depositor. The ingest format for this study was STATA \n\nPlease follow the appropriate link below to see information on your chosen supply (download) format. \n\nSPSS files (*.sav files) \nIf SPSS was not the ingest format, this format will generally either have been created via the SPSS command processor (e.g. if the ingest format is STATA, SAS, Excel, or dBase). If the ingest format was non-delimited or fixed-width text, SPSS files will have been created using SPSS command syntax.\n\nIssues: There is very seldom any loss of data or internal metadata when importing data files into SPSS. Any problems will have been listed above in the Data and Documentation Problems section of this file.\n\nSTATA (*.dta files) \nIf STATA was not the ingest format, STATA files will generally have been created from SPSS via the StatTransfer command processor. Importantly, StatTransfer's optimisation routine is run so that variables with SPSS write formats narrower than the data (e.g. numeric variables with 10 decimal places of data formatted to FX.2) are not rounded upon conversion to STATA because they are converted to 'doubles ' rather than floats. Discrete user missing values are copied across into STATA (as opposed to being collapsed into a single system missing code).\n\nIssues: There are a number of data and metadata handling mismatches between SPSS and STATA. Where any data or internal metadata has been lost or truncated, it will be logged in the study's SPSS_to_STATA_conversion RTF file. Note that the complete internal metadata has been supplied in the UKDA Data Dictionary file(s): [data file name]_UKDA_Data_Dictionary.rtf\n\nTab-delimited text (*.tab files) \nIf tab-delimited text was not the ingest format, tab-delimited files will have been created from via the SPSS command processor, and also from Excel and MS Access files. When exporting from Access data tables to tab-delimited text, the potentially problematic special characters (tabs, carriage returns, line feeds, etc.) allowed by Access memo and text fields may have been removed by the Archive if necessary.\n\nIssues: Date formats in SPSS are always exported to mm\/dd\/yyyy in tab-delimited text format. There may be a mismatch with the documentation on such variables. Variables that include both date and time such as dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm:ss (e.g. 18-JUN-2011 13:28:00), will lose the time information and become mm\/dd\/yyyy. All users of the data in tab-delimited format should consult the UK Data Archive Data Dictionary RTF file(s).\n\nIf the data was exported from MS Access, more limited 'data documenter' information is generally available in the RTF variable information files. These files may also contain SQL setup information.\n\nMS Excel (*.xls\/*xslx files) \nIf MS Excel was not the ingest format, Excel files may have been created via StatTransfer. The date and time issues noted under tab-delimited format may also apply here.\n\nSAS (*.sas7bdat and *sas files)\nIf SAS was not the ingest format, SAS files will usually have been created via StatTransfer or SPSS. SAS is not one of the Archive's standard supply formats, and the files are likely to have been created in response to a user request. The usual format is *.sas7bdat files plus a .sas proc formats file. Note that the complete internal metadata has been supplied in the accompanying UK Data Archive Data Dictionary file(s).\n\nIssues: The main loss of information when converting from SPSS to SAS is user-missing value definitions. By editing the .sas file, the user can choose whether to collapse all user-missing values into system missing or preserve the\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdvalue and lose the user-missing definition. To achieve the latter\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdthe following section of the .sas file should be removed before running it:\n\n\/* User Missing Value Specifications *\/\nNote that the complete internal metadata has been supplied\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdin the UKDA Data Dictionary file(s): [data file name]_UKDA_Data_Dictionary.rtf\n\nMS Access (*.mdb\/*.mdbx files)\nDue to substantial incompatibilities between versions of MS Access, the Archive will only make data available in MS Access format if this is the ingest format and\/or the database contains important information in addition to the data tables (coding information, forms, queries, etc.).may have been created from scanned paper documents. Occasionally, some documentation cannot be usefully converted to PDF (e.g. MS Excel files with wide worksheets) and this is usually supplied in the original or a more appropriate format."}},"data_access":{"dataset_availability":{"access_place":"UK Data Service","access_place_uri":""},"dataset_use":{"spec_perm":[{"txt":"Standard conditions of access","required":"yes","form_no":"","uri":""}],"restrictions":"The depositor has specified that registration is required and standard conditions of use apply.
