Abstract
This chapter describes the prenatal cohort and successive cohorts of 3- and 6-year-old children. These three cohorts, in combination, are designed to study constitutional, behavioral, and social risk factors and to test hypotheses about early experience, health, and temperament as causes of conduct disorder and delinquency.
