FASD survey

First, i realize this is an older post. i don't normally comment on surveys, but yours is all over the place. there is no doubt that all of these experiences will have an impact on our kids in a myriad of ways. there are many questions on the survey that many of us have no way of answering. some of our kids came from families who refused any medical information. i didn't even know what city my children were born in let alone how many months gestation they achieved. i have no info other than anecdotal through DFPS records or the things my kids remember about violence in the home that my kids witnessed. who are you really wanting to target with this survey--kids from international adoptions from war torn countries? kids from domestic infant adoptions? those from foster-adopt situations? different life experiences will have different impact upon kids with different personalities. ever hear of the quality of resilience? some kids have it, some don't. that, too, affects the outcome. i think, perhaps, that to get the answers you seek, you might want to tighten up your questioning and narrow your focus. obviously most domestic infant adoption in the United States will not have seen the trauma-inducing events. should they continue the survey? will they negate your results? i don't know, but you probably know what you're looking for. i'd suggest taking the survey questions and talking them over with your advisor--i am, of course, assuming that this survey is part of an action study project for some type of degree. you're going to have a whale of a time disaggregating your data considering how broad the reach of the study is currently finally, this is virtually the same survey that you posted for RAD/PTSD last year. why the change in title?
