TWIN}'s} school and home experiences. The information I collect in this interview is extremely valuable
in understanding the development of young children and how their school experiences can be improved.

What is {your/{NAME}'s} relationship to {CHILD}?
CODE RELATIONSHIP OF HOUSEHOLD MEMBER.

HELP TEXT:
Mother/Female Guardian: The female primarily responsible for the child. Includes birth or biological
mothers, adoptive, step, and foster mothers, as well as, legal female guardians.
Father/Male Guardian: The male primarily responsible for the child. Includes birth or biological fathers,
adoptive, step, and foster 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 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 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.
Grandfather: The male parent of the child's biological or adoptive mother or father.
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, niece,
or nephew.
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, she 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."

NOTE: THE ADDITION OF DYSCALCULIA TO CATEGORY 6 OF CHQ.060 IS NEW IN ROUND 8. IT IS NOT A NEW
CATEGORY BUT A NEW NAME OF A DISABILITY IN THE CATEGORY WITH DYSLEXIA.
CHQ.060

What was the diagnosis?
PROBE: What was the primary diagnosis?
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), developmental aphasia, minimal brain dysfunction, and brain injury. The term does not
include learning problems that are primarily the result of problems with seeing, hearing, or walking,
mental retardation, emotional disturbance, or environmental, cultural, or economic disadvantage. A
commonly used acronym is "LD."
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.

ROUND 8 Parent – CHQ-55

Developmental delay: A condition in which a young child falls significantly behind his/her age-mates in
physical, mental, social/emotional, or speech development. It does not simply mean that the child talked
somewhat later than some children talked or was smaller than average. 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 is a pervasive lack of responsiveness to other people that has its onset before 30 months of age.
Other defining characteristics are that the impaired social development and delayed or deviant language
development are not merely predictable from the child's cognitive retardation. Some autistic children are
actually advanced in their reading skills, memory skills, or musical abilities. There is also an insistence
on sameness, as shown by stereotyped play, abnormal preoccupations, or resistance to change.
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 selfmutilation. This condition generally does not involve delusions, hallucinations, incoherence, or bizarre
associations.
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.
Mental Retardation: The child's mental and/or social/emotional development is significantly and
noticeably behind what would ordinarily be expected for a child of his or her age. This is a more
significant delay than a developmental delay.

What was the diagnosis?
PROBE: What was the primary diagnosis?
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, developmental
aphasia, minimal brain dysfunction, and brain injury. The term does not include learning problems that
are primarily the result of problems with seeing, hearing, or walking, mental retardation, emotional
disturbance, or environmental, cultural, or economic disadvantage. A commonly used acronym is "LD."
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.
Hyperactivity: Having behavior characterized by constant overactivity.
ROUND 8 Parent – CHQ-66

Mental Retardation: The child's mental and/or social/emotional development is significantly and
noticeably behind what would ordinarily be expected for a child of his or her age. This is a more
significant delay than a developmental delay.
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.

What was the diagnosis?
PROBE: What was the primary diagnosis?
HELP TEXT:
Panic Disorder: A disorder in which there is the sudden onset of several different physical signs, such
as rapid heartrate, 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.
Agoraphobia: This is anxiety about being in places or situations from which escape might be difficult or
embarrassing or in which help might not be available in the event of having an unexpected panic attack.
Children usually avoid the situations or else they are endured with distress or anxiety about having a
panic attack. This disorder is not due to any social phobia such as obsessive-compulsive disorder, or
separation anxiety.
ROUND 8 Parent – CHQ-68

Social Phobia: A marked and persistent fear of social or performance situations in which the child is
exposed to unfamiliar people or possible scrutiny. These situations provoke anxiety, which can take the
form of panic, crying, and tantrums, freezing or shrinking from the situation. The avoidance or anxious
anticipation and distress caused by these situations interfere significantly with the child’s routine,
academic functioning or social activities.
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. [CODE AS OTHER ANXIETY DISORDER]
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.
Dysthymia: Dysthymia is a milder form of depression than clinical depression. Symptoms of dysthymia
are similar to those for depression and include problems with school work, withdrawal from other
children, shyness, irritability, problems with relationships, and sleep difficulties.
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, severe
worthlessness, hallucinations or strange beliefs about the past.

HELP TEXT:
Overweight/Obese: If a child is overweight or obese, his or her weight is greater than what is
considered healthy for his or her height. A child who is overweight is defined as having a “body mass
index” or BMI that is equal to or above the 95th percentile. The 95th percentile means that compared to
children of the same gender and age, 95 percent have a lower BMI.
Underweight: If a child is underweight, his or her weight is less than what is considered healthy for his
or her height. A child who is underweight is defined as having a “body mass index” or BMI that is less
than the 5th percentile. The 5th percentile means that compared to children of the same gender and age,
5 percent have a lower BMI.
Anorexia: A person with anorexia, or anorexia nervosa, has an eating disorder characterized by not
eating enough food, having a distorted image of his or her body, refusing to maintain a normal body
weight, and being afraid to gain weight even though he or she is very underweight.
Bulemia: A person with bulimia, or bulimia nervosa, has an eating disorder often characterized by
eating a large amount of food in a short time and then purging it by vomiting, exercising too much, or
using medications such as laxatives or diuretics. Persons with bulimia may be of average weight, but
often obsess about their body shape and size.

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.

ROUND 8 Parent – PEQ-86

High school diploma/equivalent: A certificate that verifies that a person has successfully completed the
required courses of a high school curriculum. Includes either actually graduating from high school or having 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).
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.
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, but 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, university, or vocational/technical 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."
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
