Study Design View help for Study Design
Men (G2 from the Oregon Youth Study) were asked regularly if they had fathered a child, and if so, the child and mother were invited by telephone to participate in the Three Generational Study when the child was aged 18 months to 2 years of age (Wave 1). Assessments involved two separate appointments at each wave (one for mother and child and one for father and child). Time 5 evaluates their offspring aged 9 to 10 years.
