family relationship through blood, marriage, adoption, or partnership (that is, living together as married). It
also refers to relationships that exist where there are two people living together as married and they have
children who are not related to one of them. 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, she is an "other nonrelative." If the "other nonrelative" is checked,
you will receive a list of categories that are more descriptive than "other nonrelative" to choose from.

Section SSQ Social Skills, Problem Behaviors and Approaches Toward Learning
Thirty-four items ask parents to rate their child on social-emotional skills including ability to exercise selfcontrol (for example, fighting, arguing, anger); ability to interact with others (for example, playing, making
friends); being sad or lonely (for example, depression, low self-esteem); being impulsive or overactive;
positive behaviors (for example, listening, cooperating); problem behaviors (worrying); and approaches to
learning (for example, selfdirection, organization, eagerness to learn). The social skills and behavior items
are adapted from the Social Skills Rating Scale (SSRS) and the Social Skills Improvement System (SSIS) by
Gresham and Elliot (1990, 2008) published by NCS Pearson. These items (a-i, k, l, n, p, q, s, t, u, w, y, z1, z2,
z3, z4, z5, z6, z7, z8, z9) are copyright protected and are not listed (they are submitted directly to OMB for
review). The approaches to learning items were created for the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study,
Kindergarten Class of 1998-99 (ECLS-K) by Atkins-Burnett. They are not copyright protected and,
therefore, are listed below.

syndrome/autism/pervasive developmental disorder (PDD)/Other autism spectrum disorder", "Intellectual or
cognitive disability", "Orthopedic impairment", "Emotional disturbance", "Traumatic brain Injury", AND
“Speech impairment.”
HELP FOR CODE 1: Learning disability: A disorder in one or more psychological processes for understanding or
using language, which shows up as difficulty learning to listen, think, speak, read, write, spell, or do
mathematical calculations. Some names of learning disabilities are dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia,
developmental aphasia, minimal brain dysfunction, brain injury, and perceptual disabilities. A commonly used
acronym is "LD." Children with "specific learning disorder" are included here.
HELP FOR CODE 2: Attention deficit disorder (ADD) / Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): A
childhood syndrome characterized by short attention span that is inappropriate for his/her age group, with
or without hyperactivity. 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.
HELP FOR CODE 3: Developmental delay: A condition in which a young child falls significantly behind children
of the same age in physical, mental, speech, social/emotional, and/or adaptive development. It does not
simply mean that the child talked somewhat later than some children or was smaller than average. 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.
HELP FOR CODE 4: Asperger’s syndrome/Autism/Pervasive developmental disorder (PDD)/Other autism
spectrum disorder: Asperger’s is a developmental disability with symptoms that are less severe than autism
but include similar characteristics. Autism refers to developmental disabilities that significantly affecting
verbal and nonverbal communication as well as social interaction. There is often an insistence on sameness,
as shown by stereotyped play, abnormal preoccupations, or resistance to change. 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). With autism, the impaired social
and language development are not caused by cognitive delay. Some children with autism are actually
advanced in selected areas. Pervasive developmental disorder may include excessive anxiety, inappropriate
affect or emotions, odd movement, speech abnormalities, hypersensitivity to sensory stimuli, and selfmutilation. Children with "autism spectrum disorder (ASD)" are included here.
HELP FOR CODE 5: Intellectual or cognitive disability: 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" and mental
retardation would also be included here.
HELP FOR CODE 6: Orthopedic impairment: A physical impairment that is severe enough to negatively affect
a child’s educational performance. Disabling physical problems such as those resulting from polio, cerebral
palsy, amputations, and fractures or contractures from burns would be considered as orthopedic
impairments.
HELP FOR CODE 7: Emotional disturbance: A condition with 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; © inappropriate behavior or feelings; (d) a general mood of unhappiness or depression; or € a
tendency to develop physical symptoms or fears associated with personal or school problems. Examples
include panic disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, other anxiety disorders (for example, separation
anxiety disorder or generalized anxiety disorder), bipolar disorder, depression, oppositional defiance disorder
(ODD), eating disorders, and schizophrenia. Sensory deficit disorders (such as sensory deprivation problems,
sensory processing problems, sensory integration problems, or sensory organization problems) would also
be included.
HELP FOR CODE 8: 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. It may result in impairments in cognition; language; memory; attention;
reasoning; abstract thinking; judgment; problem-solving; sensory, perceptual, and motor abilities; psychosocial 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.
HELP FOR CODE 9: Speech impairment (such as problems with articulation or communication, voice
disorders, or stuttering): Speech problems include many issues a child may show when he or she talks. The
listener may not be able to hear the child, the child may not speak clearly, or the child may use sounds or say
words the listener is not familiar with.

HELP FOR CODE 3: Pervasive development disorder (PDD): Pervasive developmental disorder may include
excessive anxiety, inappropriate affect or emotions, odd movement, speech abnormalities, hypersensitivity
to sensory stimuli, and self-mutilation.
HELP FOR CODE 4: Rett syndrome: Rett syndrome is a genetic neurological disorder that affects the way the
brain develops and impairs individuals’ ability to speak, walk, eat and breathe easily. This disorder primarily
affects girls. Over time, children with Rett syndrome have increasing problems with the use of muscles that
control movement, coordination and communication. Rett syndrome can also cause seizures and intellectual
disability. Abnormal hand movements, such as repetitive rubbing or clapping, often replace purposeful hand
use.
HELP FOR CODE 5: Childhood disintegrative disorder (CDD): Childhood disintegrative disorder, also known as
Heller's syndrome and disintegrative psychosis, is a rare condition characterized by late onset (>3 years of
age) of developmental delays in language, social function, and motor skills. Children with CDD may lose social
skills (for example, making eye contact); lose bowel and bladder control; lose the ability to understand what
others are saying; lose motor skills; exhibit odd body movements, such as walking on tiptoe, flicking fingers
for long periods, or banging their head; lose the ability to speak; or be unable to start a conversation or keep

PROGRAMMER INSTRUCTIONS:

BOLD, IN HELP TEXT ON FIRST INSTANCE ONLY: "Panic disorder", “Separation anxiety disorder”, “Obsessive
compulsive disorder”, “Generalized anxiety disorder”, “Other anxiety disorder”, “Bipolar disorder”,
“Depression”, “Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD)”, “Eating disorder”, “Sensory deficit disorder” AND
“Schizophrenia.”
HELP FOR CODE 1: 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.
HELP FOR CODE 2: 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.
HELP FOR CODE 3: 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.
HELP FOR CODE 4: 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

Page 269 of 405

dizziness.
HELP FOR CODE 5: Other anxiety disorders: An anxiety disorder that is not one of the specific disorders in this
list.
HELP FOR CODE 6: 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.
HELP FOR CODE 7: 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.
HELP FOR CODE 8: Oppositional defiant 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 FOR CODE 9: Eating disorders: Eating disorders are severe disturbances in eating behaviors and related
thoughts and emotions. They include, for example, anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder,
pica, rumination, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorders.
HELP FOR CODE 10: Sensory deficit disorders (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 ageappropriate functioning at home or school then it becomes a problem.
HELP FOR CODE 11: Schizophrenia: This is severe mental disorder characterized by incoherent or illogical
thoughts. Children with schizophrenia may have hallucinations (for example, hear voices), delusions, and
thinking or behavior that interferes with their ability to function.
