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 organize the data and supplemental materials in two ways: each follow-up as a complete, separate study, and a combined file containing all waves of data. Below is listed all studies which have been conducted to date and the variables in each of them: Related datasets: Sears (Deceased), Robert R.; Maccoby, Eleanor E.; Levin, Harry, 1980, "Patterns of Child Rearing, 1951-1958", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/CTETA1, Harvard Dataverse, V7, UNF:3:055LG8vxZCz1zQWkp3h2ew== [fileUNF] Sears (Deceased), Robert R., 1980, "Identification and Child Rearing, 1958", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/611N2L, Harvard Dataverse, V3, UNF:3:HWFo6qs9ag9mcOe37ZZhRg== [fileUNF] Nowlis, David, 2025, "Child Rearing Antecedents of Hypnotic Susceptibility, 1963-1964", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ND6P5U, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:n3EdCtvb2yjWeueduTZ3mg== [fileUNF] Edwards, Carl N., 1988, "Some Developmental Antecedents of Psychopathology, 1965", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/IYXBIE, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:L4jUR0ztK0AcLR6TA/dv7g== [fileUNF] Crowne, Douglas P.; Conn, Lance K.; Marlowe, David; Edwards, Carl N., 1988, "Some Developmental Antecedents of Level of Aspiration, 1964-1965", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/9TT1X6, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:hesU9yzJU5mR1EMfH6+sAA== [fileUNF] McClelland, David C., 1984, "Follow-Up of the Children of the Patterns of Child Rearing Subjects, 1977-1978", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/Z7E69N, Harvard Dataverse, V5, UNF:3:9M8uuMhUlK9OvhsIUBsQww== [fileUNF] McClelland, David C.; Franz, Carol, 1992, "Life Patterns Project: Follow-up of Patterns of Child-rearing, 1987-1988", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/AJHKU6, Harvard Dataverse, V8, UNF:3:m9aXJFiHOofwwj/K+YaR2A== [fileUNF] Study Variables by dataset: Sears, 1951-1952: VAR001 to VAR322 Sears (Deceased), Robert R.; Maccoby, Eleanor E.; Levin, Harry, 1958: VAR323 to VAR372 Nowlis, David, 1963-1964: VAR373 to VAR379 Edwards, Carl N., 1965: VAR380 to VAR438 Crowne, Douglas P.; Conn, Lance K.; Marlowe, David; Edwards, Carl N., 1964-1965: VAR439 to VAR513 McClelland, David C., 1977-1978: VAR514 to RESPON McClelland, David C.; Franz, Carol 1987-1988: MOWRK87 to AFFTR88 In addition to these variables, the combined data set (PATTERNS.POR) contains the following variables: SUBJID, SAMPLE58 (indicates who participated in 1958 follow-up), SAMPLE65 (indicates who participated in 1965 follow-up), SAMPLE68 (indicates who participated in 1968 follow-up), SAMPLE77 (indicates who participated in 1977-1978 follow-up), and SAMPLE88 (indicates who participated in 1987-1988 follow-up).
