About This Product

This study examined the consequences of adolescent childbearing for mothers and for their children. The study sample included 2,178 Philadelphia women, primarily black, who were age 25 or younger at the birth of their first child. Data were obtained through interviews and medical examinations, and cover the socioeconomic circumstances of the mother during pregnancy and seven years later, as well as the intellectual and behavioral status of the child at birth and at ages 8 months, 4 years, and 7 years. Note for users of DAAPPP Data Sets #01-B1DAAPPP data sets 01 through B1 are comprised of a User's Guide, SPSS syntax files (*.SPS or *.SPX) and raw data files only. Most of these datasets contain SPSS syntax files that use Job Control Language (JCL) from 1980s versions of SPSS-X. Because the syntax is old, the syntax files require editing to conform to the current syntax standards used by SPSS/Windows or SPSS/Unix. If you require technical assistance in using or editing these syntax files, please contact Sociometrics' Data Support Group at 800.846.3475 or socio@socio.com.
