Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Children between the ages of 6 months-4 years old at baseline, who are currently attending government-run childcare centers in El Salvador, will be eligible for enrollment in this study. One parent/guardian and center caregiver for an enrolled child will also complete assessments.
- In the comparison group, for every 5th center-attending child enrolled, the nearest neighboring child between the ages of 6 months and 4 years at enrollment, and who does not attend the center, will be eligible for enrollment. One parent/guardian of the comparison child will also complete assessments.
You may not qualify if:
- Children with known disabilities, who are unlikely to show developmental changes over time, may be excluded from the study.
