| Summary: | Cebu Longitudinal Health and Nutrition Survey (CLHNS) is a
study of Filipino women who gave birth between May 1, 1983 and April
30, 1984. The CLHNS collects information on infant feeding patterns,
particularly the overall sequencing of feeding events (i.e., of both
milk and nonmilk items), the various factors affecting feeding
decisions at each point in time, and how different feeding patterns
affect the infant, mother, and household. The intent is to understand
how infant feeding decisions by the household interact with various
social, economic, and environmental factors to affect health,
nutitional, demographic, and economic outcomes. The Cebu cohort of
mothers, infants, and for many surveys their siblings, has been
followed for a number of economic, demographic and health related
follow-up surveys. The description of these follow-up surveys and
access to them is found on the Carolina Population Center Web site. |
