National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth, 1994-1995 [Canada]: Cycle 1, Release 2, Secondary File

The National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth (NLSCY) is a long-term survey designed to measure child development and well-being. The first cycle of the survey was conducted by Statistics Canada in 1994-1995 on behalf of Human Resources Development Canada. The survey looked at households containing children 0 to 11 years of age. It will follow these children over time, collecting information on the children and their families, education, health, development, behaviour, friends, activities, etc. The data collected has been released in two cycles of the NLSCY. The amount of information collected was so extensive a decision was made to have two releases rather than waiting for all of the data to be processed. Release 1 contains information on medical/biological childbirth information, motor and social development, parenting, child care, behaviour, etc.. Release 2 contains information on health, activities, literacy, family and custody history, parent health, neighbourhood safety, puberty, drinking and drugs. A complete list of the sections included in the first and second release can be found in the General Contents files.加拿大全国儿童与青年纵向调查（National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth, NLSCY）是一项旨在衡量儿童发展与福祉的长期追踪调查。该调查的首个周期由加拿大统计局（Statistics Canada）于1994至1995年代表加拿大人力资源发展部（Human Resources Development Canada）执行。调查覆盖所有居住有0至11岁儿童的家庭，并将对这些儿童开展长期追踪，持续收集儿童及其家庭、教育、健康、发展、行为、社交、朋友、活动等多维度信息。鉴于本次调查收集的信息量极其庞大，项目方最终决定分两批发布数据，而非等待全部数据处理完成后再统一公开。第一批发布数据涵盖儿童医学/生物学分娩信息、运动与社会发展能力、育儿模式、儿童照料、行为表现等内容；第二批发布数据则包含健康状况、日常活动、读写能力、家庭与监护权历史、父母健康情况、社区邻里安全、青春期发育、饮酒与药物使用等信息。首次与第二次发布所包含的完整板块清单，可在通用内容文件（General Contents files）中查阅。
