Patterns of Child Rearing and Subsequent Follow-ups , 1951-1988

This study consists of data collected from the children whose mothers participated in the 1951-1952 Sears, Maccoby, and Levin Patterns of Child Rearing study. This follow-up focused on the child-rearing antecedents of psychopathology in later life. It was decided that it would be helpful to have the data and the supplemental materials organized in two ways: each follow-up as a complete and separate study, and a combined file containing all waves of data. Below is listed all studies which have be conducted to date and the variables in each of them: Sears, R. Maccoby, E., and Levin, H. Patterns of Child Rearing, 1951-1952, 1958 Nowlis, D.
