PART I . REASONS FOR THE 5-YEAR SURVEY
The purpose of the 5-year survey waa to review andevaluate pre-school health, care and education aervlcesthroughout Brltaln as experienced by the cohort of children bornduring the week 5-11 April 1970.
The main flndlngs from the survey are publlshed in tworeporta covering the aoclal (Osborn, Butler and Morris, 1984) andhealth (Butler and Gold~ng with Hewlett, 1986) aspects of thechlldren~s llves. The followlng notes on the survey methods areextracted from the report by Osborn, Butler and Morr~s (1984)from which further details can be obtained.
~T acln
The children In England and Wales were traced throughthe cooperation of the registration dlvlslon of the ReglatrarGeneral’s OffIce (RGO), the Nat~onal Health Service CentralRegister (NHSCR) and Fam~ly Practltloner Committees (FPCS). TheRGO produced a computer llstlng of every child whose date ofbirth was registered as occurring during the week 5-11 April1970. Using the details provided by the RGO the NHSCR was thenable to ldentlfy the Area Health Authority (AHA) In which eachchild was last registered with a NHS general practitioner. TheNHSCR could also say If a child had gone abroad, was registeredwith a Service Medical Officer, I.e. If the father waa a memberof the HH Forces, or had died, In which case a copy of the deathcertificate waa supplled, Using the NHS number provided by theNHSCR, Family Practltloner Committees could plnpolnt the homeaddress of children who had not emigrated or died. Thisinformation was passed to the community nursing aervlce of theAHA In wh~ch the FPC was located, and the local health vlsltorspersonally approached the famllles In quest~on, Invltlng them toparticipate In the study. This procedure ensured thatInformation confidential to the health authorities such as thehome address of the study child was not disclosed to the researchteam unless the parents had agreed to take part.
A slmllar procedure was adopted in Scotland, butbecause the admlnlstratlve structure was sllghtly different, theScottish NHSCR waa provided with the names of the children whohad taken part In the Brltlsh Births (1970) study. They addedthe child’s NHS number and located the Health Board In which thech~ld was last registered with a NHS general practitioner.Admlnlstrators of Primary Care In each Health Board used thisinformation to ldentlfy each child’s home address which wascommunicated to the health vlsltors who then lnvlted the parenta’partlclpatlon.
The whereabouts of children of servicemen who wereregistered with a Service Medical Officer were determined withthe help of the Service Ch~ldren’s Education Authority. Thisgroup Included 64 children of service famllles who wereInterviewed by nurses of the Soldlers, Sailors and AirmenFamllles Assoclatlon (SSAFA) In West Germany, Malta, Gibraltarand Singapore. These children were Included In the surveybecause they were members of the Brltlsh Births cohort and
11
although they were overseas In 1975 were llkely to return toBritain and be Included In future follow-ups of the cohort.
These methods of tracing depended entirely on theavallablllty of information obtained at the time of thechildren’s birth. Thus children who were born outside GreatBrltaln but were realdent here In 1975 could not be traced Inthis way. Health Vlsltors located some of these children byscanning child health records for children born during the studyweek, but Immigrant children were inevitably under-represented Inthe sample. The NHSCR could provide no Information aboutchildren who were adopted for reasons of confldentlallty. Someadopted children were located from child health records, but~nformatlon obtained on these children at age five could not bellnked with that obtained at birth because of the lack ofnecessary Information concerning their orlg~ns.
The cohort size In 1975 was estimated to be 16,284children. Of these 13,135 (60.7%) were successfully traced andinterviewed on or shortly after their fifth birthdays In April1975. This was considered to be a reasonable response rateconsidering the difficulty of tracing children In the preschoolperiod.
Data collection
Four research documents were used In the five-yearsurvey. These were.
1. Maternal Self-completion Questlonnalre2. Home Interview Questlonnalre3. Test Booklet‘i. Developmental History Schedule
These documents were designed to obtain different typesof information.
1. The Maternal Self-completion Queatlonnalre (MSQ) wasdealgned for completion by the mother herself. This was donemainly to reduce the effect of interviewer bias In completing theattitudinal data. However, this also served to reduce theduration of the home Interview. More than half the mothers(56.4%) completed the MSQ out of the presence of the healthvlsltor and a further 28.1% completed It unaided during thehealth vlsltor’s vlslt. The health vlsltor’s help was needed byonly 15.5% of~ the mothers, some of whom had difficulty In readingor required an Interpreter. The MSQ contained questlOnsconcerning the child’s behavlour at home and maternal depression.These were based on the Rutter A Scale of behavloural, devianceand the Malalse Inventory (Rutter et al., 1970). There were alsoforty-three attitudinal items designed to ellclt attitudestowards child rearing, maternal employment, television vlewlngand hospital vlsltlng.
2. The Home Interview Questlonnalre (HIQ) was admlnlatered byhealth vls~tors who carried out the Interviews In the children’sown homes. Usually the Interviewee was the mother (92.3X).Relatively few fathers were present at interviews (7%). Fewer
111
than 1% of the Interviews were carried out with persons otherthan the ch~ld’s parents. Many questlona in the HIQ had precededresponse categories where a flnlte number of responses could beanticipated. Other questions were of the open-ended type whichrequired responses to be written down. This approach was usedwhere the potential range of responses was unknown In advance.Replles to open-ended questions were coded according to schemesdevised by scrutlnlslng a thousand randomly selectedquestionnaires.
3. Test Booklet (TB) was administered by the health vlsltorduring her vlslt to tbe child at home.
4. The Developmental Hls.tory Schedule (DHS) was designed toobtain information from child health records. Details ofdevelopmental screening throughout the preschool period wereobtained by reference to child health cllnlc and health vls~torrecords where these were available. The number of mlsslngrecords, however, make these data of limlted use, and they arenot deposited in the ESRC archives.
Admlnlstratlon
To achieve a reasonable degree of consistency in themanner In which lntervlew and tests were carried out nationally,a comprehensive set of explanatory notes was prepared for thehealth vlsltor interviewers. In addltlon, brleflng ❑eetings wereheld at regional centres throughout Brltaln. Crltlclsm of thedeployment of health vlsltors aa survey Interviewers (Newson,1970, P.19) 1s totally misplaced In atudlea of this type(Douglas, 19’76, PP.11-13). Nearly half the famllles In thisstudy were known to the health vlaltor Interviewers throughprevious professional contact. Health vlsltors are seen by themothers as medical workers with a legitimate Interest in allaspects of the children’s health, development, social and familycircumstances. Health vlsltors also had access to child healthrecords which provided an important additional source ofInformation on the early health surveillance of these children aswell as the means of tracing additional children born In thestudy week.
The main period of data collection took place over SIXmonths In 1975, during which time Information was obtained on 95%of the traced sample (Figure 1). Thus, Inferences can be madeabout children aged between five and five and a half years. Thesame statistical considerations apply to this sample aa to thatof the National Child Development Study. David et al., 1972, p216 and Prlngel et al., 1966, p 10, concisely summarise theseconslderatlona.

Non-resDOnse
There are basically two types of non-response whichhave been termed speclflc and gross non-response. Speclflc nOn-response occurs where reapondents cooperate In the study but fallto complete every part of lt and results In some questions havinga PrOPOrtlOn of ‘not stated’ responses. Some questlona In thepresent study were affected more by speclflc non-response thanothers. For example, information about the parental sltuatlonwas obtained on every child, but information about the father’sexperience of any unemployment was not available for over 30% ofthe children. The maJorlty of variables, however, had a apeclflcnon-response rate of under 5%.
Groes non-response was due to cohort members beingcompletely mlsslng from the survey. The two main causes of grossnon-response were failure to trace children born In the studyweek and unwillingness on the part of some famllles to cooperatein the study. The total gross non-response rate was only a fifth(19.3%) of the estimated sample .Ize despite the difficulty oftrac~ng the children before they had all entered Infant school.Assessment of bias waa tackled In two ways: firstly, comparisonof birth characteristics of those followed up with those who werenot, revealed no social class differences, and no aex
v
differences. Children born to teenage mothers, those of highparity, those who were heavy smokers were somewhat less llkely tobe contacted. This difference was relatively small. Thestrongent bias, however, concerned a failure to trace thechildren of mothers who were single, separated, widowed ordivorced at the time of birth (Butler & Goldlng 1986). 8econdly,It was decided to trace and obtain llmlted Information about thechildren who were mlased in the 1975 study in order to checkwhether these differed In any important respects from those whowere successfully traced and Interviewed. This additional surveytook place just two years later, when the children were seven.
There was llttle regional or social class varlatlon Intrace rates. Nevertheless, factors more directly related to theproblems of tracing and lntervlewlng cohort members, such asgeographical moblllty and family dlsruptlon, proved to be moreImportant considerations (Osborn, Butler & Morris, 1984). Higherproportions of children In the 1975 survey were llvlng with theirnatural parents.
Children of ethnic mlnorltlea were more dlfflcult totrace, especially If they had come Into Brltaln since the time oftheir birth. Intervlewlng dlfflcultles, especially where therewere language differences, further Increased the risk of bias Inthe study. The 1975 survey found 92.3% of the children were withparenta who were both of UK orlgln, I.e. not members of an ethnicmlnorlty, but In the 1977 study of children missed In 1975 thisfigure was down to 84%.
Famllles which are geographically mobile are expectedto be dlfflcult to trace and this factor could have been a maJorreason why some famllles were not traced In time for the 1975survey.
Even with this sizable difference between the childrenIn the two survey, however, the relatively large size of thesample Interviewed In 1975 compared with the 1977 sample meansthat any b~as resultlng from the loss of ch~ldren In mobilefamllles w1ll be trlvlal for analyses Involvlng the whole 1975survey sample. Analysls carried out on a sub-sample of highlymobile children (I.e. those who moved more than twice In fiveyears), however, would be very prone to error because over afifth (22.9%) of this group were untraced for the 1975 survey.Comparisons were made In terms of overcrowding (persons per roomratio), and avallablllty of four basic household amenltles(kitchen, bathroom, Indoor lavatory and hot water supply). Theobserved differences were so small that statistical slgnlflcancewas achieved for only two of the five housing Indicators -crowding and avallablllty of a kitchen. These items suggestedthat the 1975 sample had a sllght excess of children In poorhousing cond~tlons. The differences, however, were notsufficient to create a bias In the 1975 sample.
The likelihood of bias resultlng from mlsslng data 1sdiscussed in more detail In Osborn, Butler & Morris (1984).

D124 Maternal attitudes
The 43 five-point Llkert Items describe attitudes towardsthe role of women In society and various child-rearing Issues.These Items were subJect to factor analysls to determine theunderlying structure of attitudes and eight dimensions wereIdentlfled. The Items which comprised each dlmenalon were thenscored by means of separate prlnclpal components analyses. Thistwo-stage method of Item analysls and scoring provided scoregwhich could correlate to some degree between attitude dlmenslona.This was preferred to ualng factor scores from the analysls ofall 43 Items which would have produced orthogonal dimensionswhich, we suggest, Imposes an artlflclal constraint on the data.For example, authoritarian world view and child-rearing attitudeswould be expected to correlate to some degree.

IV THE QUESTIONNAIRE

PART I . REASONS FOR THE 5-YEAR SURVEY
The purpose of the 5-vear survey waa to review andevaluate pre-school health, care and education servicesthroughout Brltaln as experienced by the cohort of child’renborn during the week 5-11 April 1970.
The main flndlngs from the survey are publ~shed Intwo reports covering the social (Osborn, Butler and Morris,19841 and health (Butler and Goldlng with Hewlett, 1986}aspects of the children’s llves. The followlng notes on thesurvey methods are extracted from the report bv Osborn,Butler and Morris (19841 trom which further details can be
obtained.
Traclnx the children
The children in England and Wales were tracedthrotigh the cooperation of the reglstrat~on dlvlslon of theRegistrar General’s OffIce IRGO), the National Health ServiceCentral Register INHSCR) and Famllv Practltloner Committees(FPCS ). The RGO produced a computer llstlng of every childwhose date of birth was re~lstered as occurrlnq during theweek 5-11 April 1970. Using the details provided by the RGOthe NHSCR was then able to ldentlfy the Area Health Authority(AHAI In which each child was last registered with a NHSgeneral practitioner. The NHSCR could also sav If a childhad gone abroad, was registered with a Service Medlczial
Of’~lcer, I.e. lf the father was a member of the HU Forces, orhad died, In which case a copy ot the death certificate wassupplled. Using the NHS number provided bv the NHSCR, FamllvPractltloner Committees could plnpolnt the home address oichildren who had not emigrated or died. This Information waspassed to the communltv nursing service of the AHA In whichthe FPC was located, and the local health vlsltorspersonally approached the tamllles In question, Invltlng themto participate In the studv. This procedure ensured thatIntormatlon contldentlal to the health authorities such asthe home address ot the studv child was not disclosed to theresearch team unless the parents had agreed to take part.
A s~mllar procedure was adopted In Scotland, butbecause the admlnlstratlve structure was sllghtlv different,the Scottish NHSCR was provided with the names of thechildren who had taken part In the Brltlsh Births (1970)study . They added the child’s NHS number and located theHealth Board in which the child was last registered with aNHS general practitioner. Admlnlstrators of Primary Care Ineach Health Board used this Intormatlon to ldentlfy eachchild’s home address which was communicated to the healthvlsltors who then Invited the parents’ partlclpatlon.
The whereabouts of children of servicemen who wereregistered with a Service Medical Officer were determinedwith the help of the Service Children’s Education Authority.This group Included 64 children of service tamllles who wereInterviewed bv nurses ot the Soldlers, Sailors and AirmenFamllles Assoclatlon (SSAFAI In West Germany, Malta,
11
Gibraltar and Singapore. These children were Included In thesurvey because they were members of the Brltlah Births cohortand although they were overseas In 1975 were llkely to returnto Brltaln and be Included In future follow-ups of thecohort.
These methods ot tracing depended entirely on theavallabllltv of Information obtained at the time of thechildren’s birth. Thus children who were born outside GreatBritain but were resident here In 1975 could not be traced Inthis way. Health Vlsltors located some of these children byscanning child health records for children born during thestudy week, but lmm~grant children were Inevitably under-represented In the sample. The NHSCR could provide noInformation about children who were adopted for reasona ofconfldentlallty. Some adopted children were located fromchild health records, but information obtained on thesechildren at age i’lve could not be llnked with that obtainedat birth because of the lack of necessary informationconcernln% their orlglns.
The cohort size in 1975 was estimated to be 16,284children. Of these 13,135 (80,7%) were successfully tracedand interviewed on or shortly after their fifth birthdays InApril 1975. This was considered to be a reasonable responserate considering the difficulty of tracing children In thepreschool period.
Data collection
Four research documents were used in the ilve-yearsurvey. These were.
1. Maternal Self-completion Questlonnalre2. Home Interview Quest.lonnalre3. Test Booklet4. Developmental History Schedule
These documents were designed to obtain differenttypes of information.
1. The Maternal Self-completion Questlonnalre iMSQ) wasdesigned for completion bv the mother herself, This was donemainly to reduce the etiect of interviewer bias In completingthe attitudinal data. However, this also served to reducethe duration ot the home Interview. More than half themothers (56.4%) completed the MSQ out of the presence of thehealth vlsltor and a further 28.1% completed It unaidedduring the health vlsltor’s vlslt. The health vlsltor’s helpwas needed bv onlv 15.5% of the mothers, some ot whom haddifficulty In reading or required an Interpreter. The MSQcontained questions concerning the child’s behavlour at homeand maternal depression. These were based on the Rutter AScale of behavloural, deviance and the Malalse InventorylRutter et al., 1970). There were also forty-threeattitudinal Items designed to ellclt attitudes towards childrearing, maternal employment. television vlewlnq and hospitalv~sltlng.

2. The Home Interview Questlonnalre (HIQ) was administeredby health vlsltors who carried out the Interviews In thechildren’s own homes. Usually the interviewee was the mother(92.3%). Relatively few fathers were present at interviews(7%). Fewer than 1% of the Interviews were carried out withpersons other than the child’s parents. Many questions Inthe HIQ had preceded response categories where a flnltenumber of responses could be anticipated. Other queatlonswere of the open-ended type which requ~red responses to bewritten down. This approach was used where the potentialrange of responses was unknown In advance. Replles to open-ended questions were coded according to schemes devised bvscrutlnlslng a thousand randomly selected questionnaires.
3. Test Booklet [TB) was administered bv the health vlsltorduring her vlslt to the child at home.
4. The Developmental History Schedule (DHS) was dealgned toobtain Information from child health records. Details ofdevelopmental screening throughout the preschool period wereobtained by reference to child health cllnlc and healthvlsltor records where these were available. The number ofmlsslng records, however, make these data of llmlted use, andthev are not deposited In the ESRC archives.
Admlnlstratlon
To achieve a reasonable degree of consistency Inthe manner In which ~ntervlew and tests were carried outnationally, a comprehensive set of explanatory notes wasprepared for the health vlsltor Interviewers. In addltlon,brleflng meetings were held at regional centres throughoutBrltaln. Crltlclsm of the deployment of health vlsltors assurvey Interviewers (Newson, 1970, P.19) IS totally misplacedIn studies of’ this tvpe (Douglas, 1976, PP.11-13). Nearlyhalf the famllles In this study were known to the healthvlsltor Interviewers through previous professional contact.
.— Health v~sltors are seen by the mothers as medical workerswith a legitimate Interest In all aspects of the children’shealth, development, social and family circumstances. Healthvls~tors also had access to child health records whichprovided an Important additional source of Information on theearlv health surveillance ot these children as well as themeans of tracing additional children born In the study week.
The main period of data collection took place overSIX months In 1975, during which time information waaobtained on 95% of the traced sample (Figure 1). Thus ,inferences can be made about children aged between five andfive and a half years. The same statistical considerationsaPPIV to this sample as to that ot the National ChildDevelopment Studv. David et al., 1972, p 216 and Prlngel etal. , 1966, P 10, concisely summarise these considerations.

Non-resuonse
There are basically two types ot non-responge whichhave been termed speclflc and gross non-response. Speclflc nOn-response occurs where respondents cooperate In the study but fallto complete everv part of It and results In some questions havinga PrOPOrtlOn of ‘not stated’ responses. Some questions In the-present study were atfected more by speclflc non-response thanothers. For example, Intormatlon about the parental sltuatlonwas obtained on everv child, but Information about the father’sexperience of any unemployment wss not available for over 30% ofthe children. The maJorlty of variables, however, had a speclflcnon-response rate of under 5%.
Gross non-response was due to cohort members beingcompletely m~sslng from the survev. The two main causes of grossnon-response were failure to trace children born In the studvweek and unwillingness on the part of some famllles to cooperate~n the study. The total gross non-response rate was only a fifth(19.3%J of the estimated sample size despite the difficulty oftracing the children before thev bad all entered Infant school.Assessment of bias was tackled In two ways” firstly, comparisonof birth characteristics of’ those followed up with those who werenot . revealed no soc~al class dlfterences, and no sex
v
differences. Children born to teenage mothers, those of highpar~ty, those who were heavy smokers were somewhat less llkely tobe contacted. This difference was relatively small. Thestrongest bias, however, concerned a failure to trace thechildren of mothers who were single, separated, widowed ordivorced at the time of birth [Butler & Goldlng 1986). Secondly,It was decided to trace and obtain llmlted ~nformatxon about thechildren who were missed in the 1975 study In order to checkwhether these differed In any Important respects from those whowere successfully traced and interviewed. This add~tlonal surveytook place Just two years later, when the children were seven.
There was llttle regional or social class varlatloh Intrace rates. Nevertheless, factors more directly related to theproblems of tracing and lntervlewlng cohort members, such asgeographical moblllty and family dlsruptlon, proved to be moreImportant considerations (Osborn, Butler & Morris, 1984). Higherproportions of children In the 1975 survey were llvlng with theirnatural parents.
Children of ethnic mlnorltles were more dlfflcult totrace, especlallv If thev had come Into Brltaln since the time oftheir birth. Intervlewlng dlfflcultles, especially where therewere language differences, further Increased the rlak of bias Inthe study. The 1975 survey found 92.3% of the children were w~thparents who were both of UK orlgln, I.e. not members of an ethnicmlnorlty, but In the 1977 study of children missed In 1975 thisfigure was down to 84%.
Famllles which are geograpblcally mobile are expectedto be dlff~cult to trace and this factor could have been a majorreason why some famllles were not traced in time for the 1975survev.
Even with this .sIzable difference between the ch~ldrenIn the two survev, however, the relatively large size of thesample Interviewed In 1975 compared with the 1977 sample means
.— that any bias resultlng from the loss of ch~ldren In mobilefamllles w~ll be trlv~al for analyses Involvlng the whole 1975survey sample. Analysls carried out on a sub-sample of highlymobile children (I.e. those who moved more than twice In fiveyears) , however, would be very prone to error because over afifth (22.9%) of this group were untraced for the 1975 survey.Comparisons were made In terms of overcrowding [persons per roomratio) , and avallablllty of four basic household amenltles(kitchen, bathroom, Indoor lavatory and hot water supply). Theobserved differences were so small that statistical slgnlflcancewas achieved for onlv two of the five housing indicators -crowding and avallablllty of a kitchen. These ltema suggestedthat the 1975 sample had a sllght excess of children In poorhousing conditions. The differences, however, were notsufficient to create a bias In the 1975 sample.
The llkel~hood of bias resultlng from mlsslng data ISdiscussed In more detail In Osborn, Butler & Morris (1984).

—~.QuestIon B.7 on the Home Interview Questlonnalre haa been used torecord details of ‘motherless’ periods followlng divorce,separation or death of the mother. There 1s no eaay way oflsolatzng these ‘permanent’ mother-child separations from the‘temporary’ separations as there 1s often considerable overlapbetween these two types of situations.
It 1s recommended, however, that analyses concerned with mother-chlld separations be llmlted to children llvlng with both nat uralparents, at the time of the survey. This w1ll help to reduceconfusion between ‘separation effects’ and ‘marital breakdown ordeath of parents effects’.

1. The basis for the Census (1971) calculation of persons/roomratio 1s the number of rooms wholly available to the household orshared with other households. If a room 1s shared It 1s countedaa a fraction according to the number of households sharing It.CHES data provide information about sharing for kitchens only(kitchens under 6ft wide, bathrooms and hallways are excludedfrom the calculation) and It has been decided to count sharedkitchens aa half a room. The CHES persons per room ratio w1lltend to reduce sllghtly the proportion of children l~vlng In‘overcrowded’ conditions.
2. The Table below gives the contribution of the kitchen to thetotal number of rooms In the accommodation. Number In cells hasbeen added to number of rooms (E228A).

E247 Ethnic group of home
Preliminary examination of the data on ethnlcity revealed thatmany children whose natural parents were both given as, say, WestIndian, were nevertheless recorded as European (UK), based on thechild’s natlonaltly rather than hls or her ethnic orlgln. Tocounter this a special variable was devised based on the ethnicgroup of both present parents. According to this classification92.3% of the children In the sample were with parents of Brltlshdescent. The larger ethnic mlnorlty group were the West Indian(1.3%) and AsIan 2.0%) famines. These groupa were likely to beunder-represented, however,. because of tracing difficulties.Where Interest centres on one or other parent rather than thechild, that parent’s ethnic group can be used.
To provide classlflcatlon of famllles In terms of the ethnicgroup of the parent(s), E246A and E246B have been used to derivethe followlng:
Not statedNot knownChild In residential careEuropean - UKEuropean - otherParents West IndianParents AsIan (Includes Indian,

Notes1. S~ngle parents are classified In categories 1 to 5according to the ethnic group of the parent.2. The ethnic group of the “present parents” was requested butIt 1s possible In some cases that the ethn~c group of a (absent)natural parent was given. There 1s no Information about theextent of this possible Inconsistency.3. The proportions of non-UK parents should be treated strictlyas a mlnlmal eatlmate for two reasons:
(a) Non-UK famllles were dlfflcult to trace and lntervlew,(b) Immigrant famllles might have cited their UKnationality to protect their posltlon in this country.
112
4. Irish famllles, both Northern and Southern, could have beenIncluded In either “European-UK” or “European-other”. Famlllesfrom Elre might constitute the maJorlty of the “European-other”category. There 1s no way of ascertaining the extent of this.For purposes of classlflcatlon parents recorded as “European-other” are regarded as white.

A simple classlflcatlon of nelghbourhoods was achieved by askingthe health vlsltors to aay which of four brief descriptions bestcharacterised the dlstrlct in which the study child llved (aceQuestIon H.2 In the Home Interview Questlonnalre). Theclass~flcatlon contains three urban categories (labelled Poor,Average and Well-to-do). In addltlon, a fourth ‘rural’ categorywas provided mainly to overcome the difficulty of rating a smallcommunity where well-to-do and poorer famllles llve fairly closetogether. Where the health vlsltor felt she was unable to assigna ne~ghbourhood to one of these four categories, she was asked todescribe the nelghbourhood In her own words. This occurred In11.2% of the sample and these were aaslgned to the four basiccategories by coding staff on the basis of given crlterla.
One difficulty associated with subjective ratings 1s the risk oflow Inter-rater rellablllty; to check this a study was designedand carried out In the county of Avon (Osborn and Carpenter,1980). Two Independent ratings were obtained on each of the 322nelghbourhoods selected at random from a street gazeteer of Avon.The Kendall’s Tau B rank correlation between the two seta ofresults was .70 (P<.001) which IS a satlafactory level ofagreement for a rating of this type. One of the prlnclpalsources of disagreement between ratings concerned the Well-to-doand Rural categories, wzth some health vlsltors clearly ratingrelatlvley well-off famllles llvlng In the country as ‘Well-to-do’ and others recording this as a ‘Rural’ sltuatlon.
QuestIon H.2 In order to get some Impression of the kind ofdistrict N llves In, please ring which one of thefollowlng descriptions best characterises thedistrict.
10 In this dlstrlct, houses are closely packed together andmany are In poor state of repair. Multl occupation 1s a commonfeature, and most famllles have low incomes.
2. The dlstrlct conslsta largely of council houses and flata orless expensive privately owned houses, for example, olderterraced houses. Multl-occupation 1s unusual and famllles haveaverage Incomes. Include ‘new towns’ here.
*\
121
3. In this dlstrlct houses are well spaced and the maJority arewell maintained. Multl-occupation 1s rare and most famines havehigher than average Incomes.
4. This district 1s part of a small market town, ruralcommunity or village. Some famllles may lack basic amenltles butothers may be fairly well-to-do. It 1s mainly characterised bythe fact that well-to-do and poorer famllles llve fairly closetogether In the community.
5. If none of these descriptions seem to characterlae thedlstrlct N llves m, please describe in your own works what It 1sllke.

PART I . REASONS FOR THE 5-YEAR SURVEY
The purpose of the 5-year survey was to review andevaluate pre-school health, care and education servicesthroughout Brltaln as experienced by the cohort of childrenborn during the week 5-11 April 1970.
The main flndlngs from the survey are publlshed intwo reports covering the social (Osborn, Butler and Morris,1984) and health (Butler and Goldlng with Hewlett, 1986)aspects of the children’s llves. The followlng ,notes on thesurvey methods are extracted from the report by Osborn,Butler and Morris (1984) from which further details can beobtained.
Traclnz the children
The children In England and Wales were tracedthrough the cooperation of the registration dlvlslon of theRegistrar General’s OffIce (RGO), the National Health ServiceCentral Register (NHSCR) and Family Practltloner Committees(FPCS). The RGO produced a computer llstlng of every childwhose date of birth was registered as occurring during theweek 5-11 April 1970. Using the details provided by the RGOthe NHSCR was then able to ldentlfy the Area Health Autborlty(AHA) in which each child was last registered with a NHSgeneral practitioner. The NHSCR could also say If a childhad gone abroad, was reg~stered with a Service MedicalOfficer, I.e. If the father was a member of the armed forces,or had died, In which case a copy of the death certificatewas supplled. Using the NHS number provided by the NHSCR,Family Practltloner Committees could plnpolnt the homeaddress of children who had not emigrated or died. Thisinformation was passed to the community nursing service ofthe AHA In which the FPC was located, and the local healthvlsltors personally approached the famllles In question,Invltlng them to participate In the study. This procedureensured that lnformat~on confidential to the healthauthorities such as the home address of the study child waanot disclosed to the research team unless the parenta hadagreed to take part.
A slmllar procedure was adopted In Scotland, butbecause the admlnlstratlve structure was sl~ghtly different,the Scottish NHSCR was provided with the names of thechildren who had taken part In the Brltlsh Births (1970)study . They added the child’s NHS number and located theHealth Board In which the ch~ld was last reglatered with aNHS general practitioner. Admlnlstratora of Primary Care Ineach Health Board used this Information to ldentlfy eachch~ld’s home address which was communicated to the healthvlsltors who then Invited the parents’ partlclpatlon.
The whereabouts of children of servicemen who wereregistered with a Service Medical Officer were determinedwith the help of tbe Service Children’s Education Authority.This group Included 64 children of service famlllea who wereInterviewed by nurses of the Soldlers, Sailors and Airmen
11
Famllles Assoclatlon (SSAFA) In West Germany, Malta,Gzbraltar and Singapore. These children were included In thesurvey because they were members of the Brltlsh Births cohortand although they were overseas In 1975 were llkely to returnto Brltaln and be Included In future follow-ups of thecohort.
These methods of tracing depended entirely on theava~lablllty of Information obtained at the time of thechildren’s birth. Thus children who were born outside GreatBrltaln but were resident here In 1975 could not be traced inth~s way. Health vlsltors located some of these children byscanning child health records for children born during thestudy week, but lmmlgrant children were Inevitably under-represented In the sample. The NHSCR could provide noInformation about children who were adopted for reasons ofconfldentlallty. Some adopted children were located fromchild health records, but information obtained on thesechildren at age five could not be llnked with that obta~nedat birth because of the lack of necessary informationconcerning their orlglns.
The cohort size in 1975 was estimated to be 16,284children. Of these 13,135 (80.7%) were successfully tracedand interviewed on or shortly after their fifth birthdays InApril 1975. This was considered to be a reasonable responserate considering the difficulty of tracing children In thepreschool period.
Data collection
Four research documents were used In the five-yearsurvey. These were:
1. Maternal Self-completion Questlonnalre2. Home Interview Questlonnalre3. Test Booklet4. Developmental History Schedule
These documents were designed to obtain differenttypes of Information.
1. The Maternal Self-completion Questlonnalre (MSQ) wasdesigned for completion by the mother herself. This was donemainly to reduce the effect of Interviewer bias in completingthe attitudinal data. However, this also served to reducethe duration of the home Interview. More than half themothers (56.4%) completed the MSQ out of the presence of thehealth vlsltor and a further 28.1% completed It unaidedduring the health vlsltor’s vlslt. The health vlsltor’s helpwas needed by only 15.5% of the mothers, some of whom haddifficulty In reading or required an Interpreter. The MSQcontained questions concerning the child’s behavlour at homeand maternal depression. These were based on the Rutter AScale of behavloural deviance and the Malalse Inventory(Rutter et al., 1970). There were also forty-threeattitudinal Items designed to ellclt attitudes towards childrearing, maternal employment, television vlewlng and hospital

vlsltlng.
2. The Home Interview Quee.tionnalre (HIQ) wasadministered by health vlsltors who carried out thelntervxews In the children’s own homes. Usually theinterviewee was the mother (92.3%), Relatively few fatherswere present at interviews (7%)0 Fewer than 1% of theinterviews were carried out with persons other than thechild’s parents. Many questions In the HIQ had precededresponse categories where a flnlte number of responses couldbe anticipated. Other questions were of the open-ended typewhich required responses to be written down. Th~s approachwas used where the potential range of responses was unknownIn advance. Replles to open-ended questions were codedaccording to schemes devised by scrutlnlslng a thousandrandomly selected questionnaires.
3. Test Booklet (TB) waa administered by the health vlsltorduring her vlslt to the child at home.
4. The Developmental History Schedule (DHS) was designed toobtain Information from child health records. Details ofdevelopmental screening throughout the preschool period wereobtained by reference to child health cllnlc and healthvlsltor records where these were available. The number ofmlsslng records, however, make these data of llmlted use, andthey are not deposited In the ESRC archives.
nistratlonAdml
To achieve a reasonable degree of consistency Inthe manner In which lntervlew and tests were carried outnationally, a comprehensive set of explanatory notes wasprepared for the health vlsltor Interviewers. In addltlon,brleflng meetings were held at regional centres throughoutBrltaln. Cr~tlclsm of the deployment of health vlsltors assurvey ~ntervlewers (Newson, 1970, P.19) 1s totally misplacedIn studies of this type (Douglas, 1976, PP.11-13). Nearlyhalf the famllles in this study were known to the healthv~sltor Interviewers through previous professional contact.Health vlsltors are seen by the mothers as medical workerswith a legitimate Interest In all aspects of the children’shealth, development, social and family circumstances. Healthvlsltors also had accesa to child health records whichprovided an Important additional source of mformatlon on theearly health surveillance of these children as well as themeans of tracing additional children born In the study week.
The ma~n period of data collection took place overSIX months In 1975, during which time Information wasobtained on 95% of the traced sample (Figure 1). Thus ,Inferences can be made about children aged between five andfive and a half years. The same statistical considerationsapply to this sample as to that of the National ChildDevelopment Study. David et al., 1972, p 216 and Prlngel etal. , 1966, p 10, concisely summarise these considerations.

Non-response
There are basically two types of non-response whichhave been termed speclflc and gross non-response. Speclflc nOn-response occurs where respondents cooperate In the study but fallto complete every part of It and results In some queatlons havinga PrOPOrtlOn of ‘not stated’ respon~e~. Some questions In thepresent study were affected more by speclflc non-response thanothers . For example, Information about the parental sltuatlonwas obtained on every child, but information about the father’sexperience of any unemployment waa not available for over 30% ofthe children. The maJorlty of variables, however, had a spec~flcnon-response rate of under 5X.
Gross non-response was due to cohort members beingcompletely mlsslng from the survey. The two main causes of grossnon-response were failure to trace children born In the studyweek and unwillingness on the part of some famllles to cooperateIn the study. The total gross non-response rate was only a fifth(19.3%) of the estimated sample size despite the difficulty oftracing the children before they had all entered Infant school.Assessment of bias was tackled In two ways: firstly, comparisonof birth characteristics of those followed up with those who werenot, revealed no social claas differences, and no sex
v
differences. Children born to teenage mothers, those of highparity, those who were heavy smokers were somewhat less likely tobe contacted. This difference waa relatively small. Thestrongest bxas, however, concerned a failure to trace thechildren of mothers who were single, separated, widowed or
divorced at the time of birth (Butler & Goldlng 1986). Secondly,It was decided to trace and obtain limlted Information about thechildren who were missed In the 1975 study In order to checkwhether these differed In any important respects from those whowere successfully traced and Interviewed. Thla additional surveytook place Just two years later, when the children were seven.
There was llttle regional or social claas varlatlon Intrace rates. Nevertheless, factors more directly related to theproblems of tracing and Intervlewlng cohort members, such asgeographical mobll~ty and family dlsruptlon, proved to be moreImportant conalderatlons (Osborn, Butler & Morris, 1984). Higherproportions of children In the 1975 survey were llv~ng with theirnatural parents.
Children of ethnic mlnorltles were more dlfflcult totrace, especially If they had come Into Brltaln since the time oftheir birth. Intervlewlng dlfflcultles, especially where therewere language differences, further increased the risk of bias Inthe study. The 1975 survey found 92.3% of the children were withparents who were both of UK orlgln, I.e. not members of an ethnicmlnorlty, but In the 1977 study of children missed ~n 1975 thisfigure was down to 84%.
Famllles which are geographically mobile are expectedto be dlfflcult to trace and this factor could have been a maJorreason why some famllles were not traced In t~me for the 1975survey.
Even with this sizable difference between the childrenIn the two surveys, however, the relatively large size of thesample Interviewed in 1975 compared with the 1977 sample meansthat any bias resultlng from the loss of children In mobilefamllles w1ll be trlvlal for analyses Involvlng the whole 1975survey sample. Analys~s carried out on a sub-sample of highlymobile children (I.e. those who moved more than twice In fiveyears), however, would be very prone to error because over afifth (22.9%) of this group were untraced for the 19’75 survey.Comparisons were made In terms of overcrowding (persons per roomratio), and avallablllty of four basic household amenltles(kitchen, bathroom, Indoor lavatory and hot water supply). Theobserved differences were so small that statistical significancewas achieved for only two of the five housing Indicators -crowding and avallablllty of a kitchen. These Items suggestedthat the 1975 sample had a sllght excess of children In poorhousing conditions. The differences, however, were notsufficient to create a bias In the 1975 sample.
The likelihood of bias resultlng from mlsslng data 1sdiscussed in more detail In Osborn, Butler & Morrla (1984).

TEST BOOKLET
Tests and assessments of the children’s ability wereneeded In this study to provide a meana of comparing theslgnlflcance of different types of social and emotxonalexperience for the cogn~tlve development of young children,
The choice of tests waa llmited by the fact that therewere few standardised testa for five-year-olds that couldreasonably be carried out In the children’s own homes.Psychological assessment 1s not among the many skills acquiredduring health vlsltor tralnlng and, as the survey was beingcarried out by more than 6000 health vlaltors, on the spotassessment of children’s test performance would have been subJectto considerable varlatlon between health visitors. Thus teatswere selected which could be performed by young children at home,required no assessment of the child’s competence by the testerand which could be scored at the survey headquartera by tra~nedcoders. The tests selected Included the Human Figure DrawingTest, a Copying Designs Test and the Engllsh Picture VocabularyTest ,
Scoring the tests
Five coders were trained to score the test ualng thefirst 1000 Test Booklets for this purpose. Inter-scorerrellablllty (i.e. between scorers) waa checked on 273 randomlyselected Test Booklets and was found to be .94 for Human FigureDrawing which compares favorably with other studies reported byScott (Psychological Bulletln 1981; 89(3): p.489), .7 for CopyingDesigns and ,96 for EPVT, Intrascorer reliability (I.e. for aperson scoring the same test on separate occasions) was .9 ormore for all three tests. Having established that the teats werebeing scored rellably, coding proceeded on the whole set of TeatBooklets. The first 1000 were recoded again at the end toellmlnate the posslblllty of errors being attributed to scoringduring the tralnlng period. Although 5 coders were trained, thebulk of Teat Booklets (94.6%) were scored by only 3 coders, theother two having left after completing only 707 Test Booklets.
The scoring of two of the tests, i.e. Human FigureDrawing and Copying Designs, necessitated some degree ofsubjective Judgement In that coders had to decide whether thedrawings performed by these five-year-olds conformed with thestandards speclfled In the scoring Instruct Ions. Th~s wae notalways easy and the rellablllty checks carried out before scoringof the whole sample commenced could not lndlcate whether a coderwas consistently more len~ent or harah In scoring than the othercoders . Thla could only be observed at the end when the codingwas completed.
F
A comparison of the mean test scores for each of thethree tests as scored by the five Indlvldual coders suggestedthat the test which was most vulnerable to systematic varlatlonIn scoring was Human Figure Drawing. The mean Human FigureDrawing score In Test Booklets scored by one coder was 10.2(standard deviation 3.0) compared with a mean of 10.6 (SD 3.2) Inthose scored by one of the other coders. This difference was
2
statistically significant (P<O.001) but was equivalent to only.14 standard deviations of Human Figure Drawing score. Thed~fference between coders’ scoring of the Copying Dealgn Test waavery small (maximum difference between means was .05 SD, P<O.05).The mean EPVT scores showed no such difference between the coderswhich clearly reflected the fact that subjective judgement wasnot required In scoring this test.
KEY VARIABLE
All mothers In the birth survey have a key number In the range000010 to 164112, If born In Great Brltaln, and In the range200000 to 206212 If born In Northern Ireland. Children who werenot ~n the Birth Survey but included In the 5 year survey havekey nos In range 300000 - 399999.

SECTION A: COPYING DESIGNS TEST
QuestIon A.1 Aak the child to copy the dealgns on the next twopages as carefully as possible.Fold the book back so that the child can see onlyone page at a time.Point to each design In turn and say “see If youcan make one Just llke thla - here” and Point to
the space beside the design.Two attempts should be made at each design.Do not give the child any more help than theseInstructIons allow.
Previous studies (Davle, et al., 1972; Rutter et al.,1970) have tested children’s ablllty to copy designs as a meansot assessing their visual-motor coordination. Children In oursample were asked to make two copies of each of the 8 designsshown In the Test Booklet (reproduced at the end of thisdocument). The followlng principles were followed when scoringthe drawings.
1. The drawing must have the right general shape and look llkewhat It 1s supposed to be.
,.~. It should be approximately symmetrical.

Angles should not be rounded.
The drawing should not be rotated, e.g. the pointtriangle should be uppermost.
Angles must be approximately opposite each otherthe triangle).

Lines should meet approximately but aa long aa othercrlterla are met small gaps at Junctions are acceptable.
Sllght crossing and overlapping of llnes 1s permitted.
Not all children completed two drawings of each design,therefore a score of one was given if at least one good copy waamade of a given design. The total score was the sum of thescores obtained on each design, thus glvlng a range of O to 8.Zero score was obtained when a child attempted to copy at leaatone design but all attempts were Judged to be poor copies. Ifthe test was not attempted at all, a code of -3 wam assigned.

SECTION B: HUMAN FIGURE DRAWING (DRAW-A-MAN ffEST)
Ques.tlon B.1 Ask the child to “make a picture of a man or lady”on the page opposite thla one. Terms such an“daddy”, “mummy”, “boy”, “girl”, etc. may be usedIn place of “man” or “lady” if the child respondmbetter to these,Ae.k him/her to make the beat picture he/she canand to draw .swhole Derhead,
sO~* not just a face or
When the child stops drawing ask if lt is finishedand allow him/her to make any addltlons he/shewants to. Be careful, however, not to ~additlona.When the drawing 1s flnlshed, ask the child whatlt 1s and note what he/she says at the bottom ofthe page,Then ask the child to make another picture on thenext page of a person of the oppoalte sex to thefirst. Note what the child says It is at thebottom.If It 1s not clear, ask the child to aay what thevarious parts of the drawing are and label them.Do this by asking “What’s this?” and pointing butdo not ask questlon s such a~ “Where’s hla arm?,legs?, eyes?, etc.Do not give the child any more help than theseInstructions allow.
The Human Figure Drawing Test used In the present studywas a modlf~ed version of the Draw-a-Man Test originally devlaedby Florence Goodenough (1926)* and later developed by Dale Harris[1963)*. The Harris-Goodenough test has heen subJected toextensive evaluation as a measure of IQ and correlations withconventional IQ tests (Blnet, Wechsler, etc. ) averaging between.4 and .5 have been reported (Scott, 1981)*. Harris himselfsuggested that the test 1s more lndlcatlve of ‘conceptualmaturity’ than IQ (op. clt, P.5). This shift In emphasis getssway from the notion of unitary lntelllgence, and permitsconsideration of children’s concepts of the human figure as anIndex or sample of their concepts generally.
The drawings produced by the CHES children at the ageof 5 were relatively simple and dld not warrant theimplementation of the full Harris-Goodenough scale of 73 Items.The CHES scoring scheme was based on 30 developmental itemssuggested by Ellzabeth Koppltz (1968)* but used the Harris pointsystem of scoring. One point was scored for each itemrepresented In the drawing glvlng a maximum possible score of 30.In fact the actual range achieved was 1 to 23.

The English Picture Vocabulary Teat (EPVT) 1s anadaptation by Brlmer and Dunn (1962)* of the American PeabodyPicture Vocabulary Test. It consists of a serlea of 56 sets offour different pictures with a particular word aaaocxated witheach set of four pictures. The child IS aaked to po~nt out theone picture which corresponds to the given word, and the testprcceeds vith ,~crds C? :=creasIRg difficulty ,Jnt~l he or she
makes five mistakes In a run of eight consecutive Items. Thefinal Item achieved 1s designated the celllng Item. The EPVT rawscore 1s the total number of correct Items occurr~ng before thecelllng Item. The resultlng dlstrlbutlon of raw EPVT scores was
skewed and so the scores were transformed to give a standardnormal dlstrlbutlon (mean of zero and standard devlatlon of one).

Purpose: To provide a total score baaed on a system of scoringsuggested by E.M. Koppltz, 1968, PsycbologlcalEvaluation of Children’s Human Figure Drawlnga, NewYork, Grure and Stratton.
Sueclficatl on: The dlstrlbutlona on the Indlvldual items of the.teat for both HFD(l) and HFD(2) were examined forthe 8,953 and 8,810 cases, respectively, whocompleted storable drawings wlthln a period of 32days. These conatltuted 71% of the sample whocompleted a drawing. Weights were aaalgned tovalues of Ltems depending on the frequency withwhich they appeared In the children’s drawings.
Items which appeared frequently in drawings were aa.s~gnednegative weights which were applled If children dld ~ producethem.
Items which appeared Infrequently In drawings were asalgnedposltlve weights which were applled If children d~d producethem.
These are the equivalent of the expected and unexpected Items asdescribed by Koppltz for this age group.

Pum ose: To obtain raw score baaed on scoring method prescr~bedby M.A. Brlmer and L.M. Dunn, 1962, Manual for thePicture Vocabulary Test, Bristol, Education EvaluationEnterprises, pp 9, 10,
Speclflcatlon: The EPVT raw score la the number of correctresponses which occurred between and Including the baseItem and the celllng Item.
Thus raw score = VAR F086 - VAR F085 - VAR F08’7 + 1.
A raw score could not be computed for any of thefollowlng cases:
VAR F085 = -3 (F117 = -3) Child dld not attempt thetest, Includlng If the whole Test Booklet was notcompleted.
VAR F085 . -2 (F117 . -2) Teat not storable becausecompleted Incorrectly by Interviewer.
VAR F085 = O (F117 . O) No baae item. The vocabularylevel Of these children was below the lower l~mlt ofthe test.
VAR F086 = 90 (F117 . -2) Test was Incorrectly stoppedbefore the child reached a celllng Item. This waausually because the tester stopped testing after thechild had made five mistakes altogether Instead of fiveerrors in a run of eight Items.
VAR F086 . 91 (F117 = 60) Celllng Item not reached,I.e. child continued to last Item without making fiveerrors In a run of eight Items.
