Lehigh Longitudinal Study

Project Description

This is a continuance of a longitudinal study examining the effects of family violence on children as they transition through adolescence and early adulthood. The study seeks to mark transitions and life successes in the lives of individuals exposed to violence at a young age. Funding adds an adult assessment to three earlier waves of data collected over a 15-year period. The project is funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) and the Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR), which will continue through January, 2011.
