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 Exposure to Violence (ETV), administered to the primary caregiver (PC) of subjects belonging to Cohorts 3 to 15. It assessed the PC's perception of the subject's experience of exposure to different types of violent acts, as well as how exposure to violence my have affected the PC, his or her family, and friends. 2007-09-27 survey data 13588 10.3886/ICPSR13588.v2 Chicago Illinois United States 1994--1997 ICPSR metadata records are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial 3.0 United States License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/us/).
