QUESTION TEXT:
What is {your/{NAME}'s} relationship to {CHILD}?
{CODE RELATIONSHIP OF NEW HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS ONLY.}
HELP TEXT:
Mother/Female Guardian: The female primarily responsible for the child. Includes birth or biological mothers,
adoptive, step, foster, and other mothers, as well as legal female guardians.
Father/Male Guardian: The male primarily responsible for the child. Includes birth or biological fathers,
adoptive, step, foster, and other fathers, as well as legal male guardians.
Sister: Include biological (full, half), adoptive, step, and foster sisters.
Brother: Include biological (full, half), adoptive, step, and foster brothers.
Girlfriend or Female Partner of CHILD's Parent/Guardian: The female who has a "partner-like" relationship
with one of the child's parents or guardians. "Living as married" is another way of describing the relationship.
Boyfriend or Male Partner of CHILD's Parent/Guardian: The male who has a "partner-like" relationship with
one of the child's parents or guardians. "Living as married" is another way of describing the relationship.
Grandmother: The female parent of the child's biological or adoptive mother or father. In the case of a stepgrandmother, code the relationship as you would a grandmother (code 7). For this survey, we code that
person as a grandparent because we don’t distinguish between biological, adoptive, or step grandparents.

4th grade cognitive labs parent interview: ECLS-K:2011 :: FSQ

2014-01-31 09:49

Grandfather: The male parent of the child's biological or adoptive mother or father.
In the case of a step-grandfather, code the relationship as you would a grandfather (code 8). For this survey,
we code that person as a grandparent because we don’t distinguish between biological, adoptive, or step
grandparents.
Aunt: The sister of the child's biological or adoptive mother or father or the wife of the child's uncle.
Uncle: The brother of the child's biological or adoptive mother or father or the husband of the child's aunt.
Cousin: A child of the focal child's uncle, aunt, or cousin.
Other Relative: Refers to relationships that aren't specifically listed, such as great grandmother, great
grandfather, niece, or nephew. In the case of a step-grandparent, code the relationship as you would a
grandparent (code 7 for grandmother, code 8 for grandfather).
Other Non-relative: Refers to the relationship between two people when there is no family relationship
through blood, marriage, adoption, or partnership (i.e., living together as married). It also refers to more
ambiguous relationships that exist where there are two people living together as married and they have
children. For example, the child's father and the father's girlfriend (who is not the child's mother) live
together as married and the girlfriend's daughter lives with them. The relationship of the girlfriend's
daughter to the child would be siblings if they were married, but since the father and the girlfriend are not
married, the daughter is an "other non-relative." If the "other non-relative" is coded, you will receive a list of
other codes to use if they are more descriptive than "other non-relative."

CHILD HAS AN ADDITIONAL LEARNING DISABILITY THAT IS SEPARATE FROM OR IN ADDITION TO DYSLEXIA
(CODE 6) OR DYSCALCULIA (CODE 7).
IF BOTH ADD (CODE 2) AND ADHD (CODE 3) ARE MENTIONED, CODE AS “3” FOR ADHD.
HELP TEXT:
Learning disability: This is a disorder in one or more of the basic psychological processes involved in
understanding or in using language, spoken or written, which shows up as difficulty to listen, think, speak,
read, write, spell, or do mathematical calculations. In some cases the child can perform at grade level, but
only with special help. Some names of learning disabilities are dyslexia (CODE UNDER DYSLEXIA), dyscalculia
(CODE UNDER DYSCALCULIA), developmental aphasia, minimal brain dysfunction, brain injury, and perceptual
disabilities. The term does not include learning problems that are primarily the result of problems with
seeing, hearing, or walking (or visual, hearing or motor disabilities); intellectual or severe cognitive
disability/mental retardation; emotional disturbance; or environmental, cultural, or economic disadvantage. A
commonly used acronym is "LD." "Specific learning disorder" should be coded here.
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD): A childhood syndrome characterized by short attention span that is
inappropriate for his/her age group.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): The child displays signs of inattention, impulsivity, and
hyperactivity that are inappropriate for his or her mental and chronological age. Adults in the child’s
environment, such as parents and teachers must report the signs. Inattention means difficulty concentrating,
easily distracted, and not finishing things started. Impulsivity means often acts before thinking, shifts
excessively from one activity to another, needs a lot of supervision. Hyperactivity means runs about or climbs
on things excessively, has difficulty staying seated, always on the go, as if driven by a motor. Onset is typically
before age seven and condition lasts at least six months.
Developmental delay: A condition in which a young child falls significantly behind his/her age-mates in
physical, mental (cognitive), speech (communication), social/emotional, adaptive (behavioral) development.
It does not simply mean that the child talked somewhat later than some children talked or was smaller than
average. It is not to be confused with autism or pervasive developmental delay. If the child's social behavior
and relationships with other people are generally consistent with his or her delayed cognitive development,
then the classification of the condition as developmental delay is probably appropriate. If this is not the case,
see the definitions of autism and pervasive developmental disorder or delay.
Autism: A developmental disability significantly affecting verbal and nonverbal communication as well as
social interaction, generally evident before age three. Other characteristics often associated with autism are
a pervasive lack of responsiveness to other people, and engagement in repetitive activities and stereotyped
movements (such as hand-flapping or rocking). There is also often an insistence on sameness, as shown by
stereotyped play, abnormal preoccupations, or resistance to change. With autism, the impaired social
development and delayed or deviant language development are not merely predictable from the child's
cognitive retardation. Some children with autism are actually advanced in their reading skills, memory skills,
or musical abilities. The term autism does not apply if the child’s educational performance is negatively
affected primarily because the child has an emotional disturbance. Asperger's Disorder, Pervasive
Developmental Disorder (PDD), or any other autism spectrum disorder may be coded here; the subtype will
be captured in the next question. Pervasive developmental disorder or delay is also characterized by gross
and sustained impairment in social relationships, but typically has an onset after 30 months of age. Other
characteristics are sudden excessive anxiety, inappropriate affect or emotions, resistance to change in the
environment, oddities of motor movement, abnormalities of speech, hypersensitivity to sensory stimuli, and
self-mutilation. This condition generally does not involve delusions, hallucinations, incoherence, or bizarre
associations. "Austism spectrum disorder (ASD)" should be coded here.
Dyslexia: A learning disability (see above definition) marked by impairment of the ability to recognize and
comprehend the written word.
Dyscalculia: A learning disability (see above definition) marked by impairment in the ability to perform and
remember calculations in mathematics.
Intellectual disability/Severe cognitive disability/Mental retardation: The child's mental development is
significantly and noticeably behind what would ordinarily be expected for a child of his or her age. This

significantly below average general intellectual functioning exists at the same time as problems in adaptive
behavior, and negatively affects the child’s educational performance. "Intellectual developmental disorder"
should be coded here.
Orthopedic impairment: A bodily (or physical) impairment that is severe enough to negatively affect a child’s
educational performance. Disabling physical problems such as those resulting from poliomyelitis (often called
polio or infantile paralysis), bone tuberculosis, cerebral palsy, amputations, and fractures or contractures
(shortening of tissue) from burns would be considered as orthopedic impairments.
Serious Emotional Disturbance or SED: A condition that has one or more of the following characteristics over
a long period of time that negatively affect a child's educational performance: (a) an inability to learn that
cannot be explained by other factors; (b) an inability to build or maintain satisfactory interpersonal
relationships with peers and teachers; (c) inappropriate behavior or feelings; d) a general mood of
unhappiness or depression; or (e) a tendency to develop physical symptoms or fears associated with personal
or school problems. The term includes schizophrenia but does not apply to children who are socially
maladjusted, unless it is determined that they have a serious emotional disturbance.
Traumatic Brain Injury: An acquired injury to the brain caused by an external force, resulting in total or partial
functional disability or psychosocial impairment, or both, that adversely affects a child's educational
performance. The term applies to open or closed head injuries resulting in impairments in one or more areas,
such as cognition; language; memory; attention; reasoning; abstract thinking; judgment; problem-solving;
sensory, perceptual, and motor abilities; psycho-social behavior; physical functions; information processing;
and speech. The term does not apply to brain injuries that are congenital (there at birth) or degenerative
(problem that grows worse over time), or to brain injuries brought on by birth trauma (injuries during birth).
The term is used when an external force has caused the injury.
Panic Disorder: A disorder in which there is the sudden onset of several different physical signs, such as rapid
heart rate, shaking, sweating, nausea, dizziness, and difficulty breathing. A panic disorder may make a child
think that something horrible is about to happen.
Separation Anxiety Disorder: This is the fear a child has of being separated from his/her parents which is far
more than would be expected for the child’s developmental stage.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: A child must have obsessions or compulsions or both to have this disorder,
and these obsessions and/or compulsions must be disabling to the child. Obsessions are thoughts that aren’t
visible to others but cause the child distress. The thoughts occur over and over and the child spends so much
time on them that they have a hard time taking care of themselves or relating to others. Compulsions are
mental acts that a child feels driven to perform in response to an obsession.
Generalized Anxiety Disorder: Children who have this disorder worry all the time over nothing, themselves,
other’s safety, their health, and/or the world to a far greater extent than average. They often have many
physical signs of anxiety such as headache, abdominal pain, cramps, diarrhea, vomiting, and dizziness.
Other Anxiety Disorder: An anxiety disorder that is not one of the specific disorders in this list.
Bipolar Disorder: A child with bipolar disorder displays signs of major mood changes, sometimes sad, as in
depression, or the opposite, mania. All bipolar disorders are a combination of mania with or without
depression. Some signs of mania include inflated self-esteem, decreased need for sleep, distractibility and
increased activity. Some signs of depression are sleeping too much, poor appetite, feelings of severe
worthlessness, hallucinations or strange beliefs about the past.
Depression: Some signs of depression are frequent sadness, loss of interest or enjoyment of activities, low
energy, isolation from friends, sleeping too much, poor appetite, a severe sense of worthlessness, problems
with concentration, frequent complaints of physical illnesses, and thoughts of suicide or destructive behavior.
Speech Problems (such as articulation problems; communication problems; phonological problems; voice
disorders; or stuttering): Speech problems include many types of issues a child may show when he or she
talks. The listener may not hear the child (his/her voice may be inaudible), the child may not speak clearly
(sounds are not crisp), or the child may use sounds or say words the listener is not familiar with. These
problems are common in very young children as they learn to speak. However, as children age they are
expected to speak with more clarity. Thus, a speech problem refers to speech that is not age appropriate.
Articulation problems refer to an inability to make certain sounds. The child may say “wock” instead of

“rock” or they may leave off a sound and say “tick or teat” instead of “trick or treat.” These problems occur
when the child changes a sound, leaves off a sound, or adds a sound to familiar words. If a child cannot make
particular sounds that children his/her age normally make, that may also be referred to as a Phonological
problem. Voice disorders refer to difficulty producing sound at all and is a problem with the vocal cords. A
Stuttering problem refers to difficulty producing fluent (flowing or effortless) speech. The child cannot speak
sentences or groups of words with ease. Instead, the child hesitates before saying some words. They may
seem as if they are mentally blocking on a word. This hesitation makes it hard for the listener to understand
what the child is trying to say.
Sensory Deficit Disorder (such as sensory deprivation problems, sensory processing problems; sensory
integration problems; or sensory organization problems): This should not be confused with attention deficit
disorder, vision problems, or hearing problems. Sensory deficit disorder, sensory processing disorder, and
sensory integration disorder are terms that refer to problems a child may have correctly organizing or
interpreting sensory information. The child reacts to sensory information (what is seen, heard, touched, etc.)
in an unexpected way. Some examples are strong reactions to smelling certain perfumes, oversensitivity to
the touch of certain fabrics or even to any fabric, or overreactions to loud noises. When the level of sensitivity
creates a problem with age-appropriate behavior or activities, or age-appropriate functioning at home or
school then it becomes a problem.
Oppositional Defiant Disorder (Oppositional Defiance Disorder; ODD): ODD refers to children whose
uncooperative, defiant, or hostile behavior disrupts daily life. All children show such behavior in particular
circumstances – such as when they are tired, not feeling well, or under unusual stress. However,
identification of ODD comes with such behavior that (1) occurs with unusual frequency, (2) occurs in more
than one setting - such as home, school, church, or supermarket, and (3) is not appropriate for the age.
Examples include the following: the child has frequent temper tantrums; argues excessively with adults;
challenges rules or authority; is defiant and refuses to comply with adult requests and rules; purposely tries to
annoy or upset people; blames others for his or her mistakes or misbehavior; is often touchy or easily
annoyed by others; has frequent anger and resentment; talks in a mean and hateful way when upset; or has a
spiteful attitude and seeks revenge.

HELP AVAILABLE

QUESTION TEXT:
{Now I have a few questions about education.} What is the highest grade or year of school that {you/{NAME}}
{have/has} completed?
HELP TEXT:
Highest Grade or Year of School Completed: For grades 1-11, enter the exact grade level. If the person you are
asking about completed elementary school, find out the last grade completed. If the respondent says the
person finished 12th grade, ask whether the person received a diploma or got the equivalent of a high school
diploma.
Completing a given grade in school should be counted as the number of years it normally takes to complete
that grade level of education, regardless of how many years it actually took the person to finish. This means
that for persons who skipped or repeated grades in elementary school, you will enter the highest grade
completed regardless of the number of years they were in school. This rule is true for elementary school
through high school and is especially relevant to college.
12th grade but no diploma: The person completed the 12th grade, but did not earn a high school diploma or
GED.
High school equivalent: This means that the person has a GED. The GED is an exam certified equivalent of a
high school diploma received when the person has not actually received a degree from attending high school,
but has acquired his/her GED (high school equivalency based on passing the GED exam).
High school diploma: A certificate that verifies that a person has successfully completed the required courses
of a high school curriculum and has actually graduated from high school rather than having a GED.
Vocational/technical program after high school but no voc/tech diploma: The person attended this type of
program, but did not earn a degree/diploma/certificate of successful completion of the program.

2014-01-15 10:25

Vocational/trade school after high school refers to work or trade-related education received after completing
high school, but does not include college. Examples include secretarial school, mechanical or computer
training school, etc. Some community colleges offer vocational training, but this would be considered "1-2
years of college" or "associate's degree" and not vocational or trade school.
Vocational/technical program after high school: The person attended this type of program and DID earn a
degree/diploma/certificate of successful completion of the program. Vocational/trade school after high school
refers to work or trade-related education received after completing high school, but does not include college.
Examples include secretarial school, mechanical or computer training school, etc. Some community colleges
offer vocational training, but this would be considered "1-2 years of college" or "associate's degree" and not
vocational or trade school.
Some college but no degree: The person does not have a 4-year college (bachelor's) degree but has
completed a class for credit at a college or university.
Associate's degree: A 2-year college degree typically earned at a community college (rather than a trade
school).
Bachelor's degree: A 4-year college degree earned at a university or 4-year college. It is sometimes called an
"undergraduate degree."
Graduate or professional school but no degree: The person attended a graduate or professional school that
advanced him/her toward a degree beyond a Bachelor's degree (for example, a Master's, Doctorate, or other
professional degree). However, the person did not complete the program or earn the degree.
Master's (MA, MS): Studies beyond a bachelor's degree, but not a Ph.D. or Ed.D.
Doctorate Degree (Ph.D., Ed.D.): Studies beyond a Master's degree that result in a doctorate degree.
Professional degree after bachelor's degree (Medicine/MD; Dentistry/DDS, Law/JD/LLB): Any other graduate
degrees earned with academic studies beyond the bachelor's.

QUESTION TEXT:
What type of school or job training {are you/Is {NAME}} currently in?
HELP TEXT:
Basic skills or high school/GED completion classes: These are classes taken to learn basic skills such as writing
or math. In some cases, they may be taken to complete high school or earn a high school equivalent or GED. A
GED is an exam certified equivalent of a high school diploma received when the person has not actually
received a degree from attending high school, but has acquired his/her GED (high school equivalency based
on passing the GED exam).
Vocational/technical program: Refers to work or trade-related education received after completing high
school, but does not include college. Examples include secretarial school, mechanical or computer training
school, etc. Some community colleges offer vocational training, but this would be considered "associate's
degree" and not vocational or trade school.
Associate's degree: A 2-year college degree typically earned at a community college (rather than a trade
school).
Bachelor's degree: A 4-year college degree earned at a university or 4-year college. It is sometimes called an
"undergraduate degree."
Master's (MA, MS): Studies beyond a bachelor's degree, but not a Ph.D. or Ed.D.
Doctorate Degree (Ph.D., EDD): Studies beyond a Master's degree that result in a doctorate degree.
Professional degree after bachelor's degree (Medicine/MD; Dentistry/DDS, Law/JD/LLB): Any other graduate
degrees earned with academic studies beyond the bachelor's.
On-the-job-training: On-the-job training includes activities at the work site to help the learner develop jobrelated skills while doing work at the same time. This also includes apprenticeships. Do not include high school
equivalency degrees (GED), 2-year colleges (A.A. degree), 4-year college degree (B.A.), master’s, doctorates,
or professional degree programs after a bachelor’s degree (MA, MS, PHD, EDD, MD, DDS, LAW/JD/LLB).
Job training: Job training includes activities that qualify someone to work in a particular occupation, such as a
carpenter, a cook, or an electrician. Do not include high school equivalency degrees (GED), 2-year colleges
(A.A. degree), 4-year college degree (B.A.), master’s, doctorates, or professional degree programs
