Summary

The Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN) was a large-scale, interdisciplinary study of how families, schools, and neighborhoods affect child and adolescent development. One component of the PHDCN was the Longitudinal Cohort Study, which was a series of coordinated longitudinal studies that followed over 6,000 randomly selected children, adolescents, and young adults, and their primary caregivers over time to examine the changing circumstances of their lives, as well as the personal characteristics, that might lead them toward or away from a variety of antisocial behaviors. Numerous measures were administered to respondents to gauge various aspects of human development, including individual differences, as well as family, peer, and school influences. One such measure was the Discrimination survey. It was administered to subjects' primary caregivers in Cohorts 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12. It was drawn from the Puerto Rican Adolescent Survey and addressed both actual instances of discrimination and fear of this occurring in specific settings. These questions also appear in the Personal Identity instrument used with older subjects and young adults (PROJECT ON HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN CHICAGO NEIGHBORHOODS (PHDCN): IDENTITY-PERSONAL, WAVE 3, 2000-2002 [ICPSR 13717])
