- catalog abstract "The Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN) was designed to understand how families, schools, and neighborhoods affect child and adolescent development, with a special focus on the causes and the pathways of juvenile delinquency, adult crime, substance abuse, and violence. Long-term objectives were to create knowledge that would inform violence prevention strategies and help develop better approaches to the promotion of social competence in children from infancy to young adulthood. The Project combined two studies into one comprehensive design. The first study was an intensive study of Chicago's neighborhoods including their social, economic, organizational, political, and cultural structures, an the changes that take place within these structures. This was achieved through data collection efforts at the community level, including a community survey of Chicago residents, interviews with neighborhood experts, systematic videotaped observations of city blocks, and analyses of school, police, court and other agency records. The second study used a longitudinal cohort study of seven randomly selected cohorts of children, adolescents, and young adults to look at the changing circumstances of their lives and the personal characteristics that may lead them towards or away from a variety of antisocial behaviors. PHDCN is organized as five components: 1) Longitudinal study with an embedded intensive study of infants; 2) Community survey; 3) an Observational study of neighborhoods; 4) a Neighborhood expert survey; and 5) Administrative data. Neighborhoods were operationally defined as 343 clusters of city blocks from Chicago's 847 populated census tracts. The purpose of the Infant Assessment Unit wave of data collection was to include the youngest Project cohort by examining the "effects of prenatal and early postnatal risk conditions on health and cognitive functioning in the first year of life," and to "establish links between early developmental processes and the onset of antisocial behavior in the preschool period or in the earliest years of regular school and to measures the strength of this developmental pathway." Infants received an additional assessment at 6 months. Measures assessed visual recognition and memory, physical health and birth complications, temperament, and family environment. Videotaped records were used to record the response of the infant to different types of stimulation, as well as to capture interactions between the parent and infant to determine empathic responsiveness of the parent, encouragement and guidance, and overall psychopathology. The Murray Center holds machine-readable and videotape data for this wave of data collection.".
