    Abstract: The ECLS-B is part of a longitudinal studies program. The 
ECLS-B is designed to follow a national representative sample of 
children born in 2001 from nine months of age through kindergarten. The 
cohort has already been seen at nine months and at two years. The 
current effort is directed towards seeing them in their kindergarten 
year. The children turned five in 2006, and while the majority of these 
children were in kindergarten year in 2006, some of them are repeating 
kindergarten and some were delayed entering kindergarten. It is these 
children, who either are repeating kindergarten or were delayed 
entering kindergarten, who are being contacted in this data collection.
