Dataset for: The effect of cumulative early life adversities, and their differential mediation through hair cortisol levels, on childhood growth and cognition: Three-year follow-up of a birth cohort in rural India

Hair cortisol concentration was assessed in 845 of them at this time. As part of the REACH follow-up study, 1124 children (of the 1304 with adversity assessments) were followed-up at three years of age to assess height, weight and cognition using the Developmental Assessment on an E-Platform (DEEP) tool. 607 children had hair cortisol assessments available in this subset.

The anonymised dataset contains information on 1124 children at three years of age that were collected as part of the REACH follow-up study. This includes cluster codes, trial arm allocation, height, weight, cognition and other scores assigned to each child.
