Dimensions of Early Stress & Child Welfare Involvement (DIMENSIONS)


Principal Investigator: Philip Fisher
Subcontract Principal Investigator: John Landsverk

Funding: OSLC sub from NIH/NICHD (06/01/05-05/31/10)

The goal of the research project is to examine the association between early neglect, multiple caregiver transitions, and outcomes in middle childhood, as a step towards establishing more adequate models of early adversity effects within high-risk populations. The investigation involves re-contacting a sample of families who participated in Healthy Families San Diego (HFSD) (N = 350), a longitudinal study that documented the prenatal experiences and first 3 years of life of a group of children at high risk for CWS involvement.
