Abstract: This OMB package requests clearance for data collection instruments to be used in the Study of the Program for Infant Toddler Care (PITC). This study is one of the rigorous research studies of REL West (the Regional Educational Laboratory - West) and will measure the impact of the PITC on child care quality and children’s development. The evaluation will be conducted by Berkeley Policy Associates in partnership with the University of Texas at Austin and SRM Boulder. Evaluation measures include baseline and follow-up questionnaires for parents, programs, and caregivers; baseline and follow-up program observations; and two rounds of child observations/interviews to measure children’s language, social and cognitive development.
