Abstract: Information collection for BabyFACES 2020 was approved in October 2019. During programming of the approved instruments, the study team found some typographical errors and places where instructions to respondents on web-based instruments were written using language appropriate for interviewer administered surveys. These types of issues occurred across all instruments. Additionally, the consent form omitted brackets to indicate language that would be present only on forms for families in the home-based option. We adjusted the instruments and consent form and have included these updated materials with this request. We believe that these changes are minor and non-substantive.
