National Study of Continuous Quality Improvement to Inform the 21st Century Community Learning Centers Program
Parent/Guardian Questionnaire
DRAFT April 2021
This questionnaire is part of the National Study of Continuous Quality Improvement to Inform the 21st Century Community Learning Centers Program, a national evaluation being conducted for the U.S. Department of Education by Mathematica. The questionnaire asks about your child’s behavior as well as their afterschool enrollment history and future plans for enrollment. If you have any questions about the study or your afterschool center’s participation, email us at [STUDY EMAIL]@mathematica-mpr.com.
We would like you to know that:
The survey takes about 10 minutes to complete.
Your answers will be kept private; no information that identifies you, your child, the afterschool center, or your child’s school will be reported. Your responses are protected by the Education Sciences Reform Act of 2002, Title I, Part E, Section 183. We will not provide information that identifies you, your child, the afterschool center, or your child’s school to anyone outside the study team except if required by law. The reports prepared for this study will not provide information about a specific district, school, afterschool center, or person.
This survey is voluntary. That means you can choose whether or not to take it, and you can stop taking the survey at any time. You may skip any questions you do not wish to answer; however, we hope that you answer as many questions as you can. Your answers to questions will not affect your child’s enrollment in the afterschool center now or in the future and will only be shared with the study team (they will not be shared with anyone from the afterschool center).
There is no risk to completing the parent/guardian questionnaire. All members of the study team sign a pledge to keep your information private. All staff with access to study data have received clearance from the U.S. Department of Education and are subject to severe legal punishment if study information is not kept private. Any data that identifies you will be destroyed at the end of the study. If you have any questions about your rights as a research volunteer, contact HML IRB toll free at 1-202-753-5040 and reference IRB number 844MATH21.

A. Your child’s behavior
The following question asks about your child’s behavior.
A1. Thinking about your child’s behavior during the past month, how often did your child…
If you did not see your child in a situation listed below, take your best guess about how your child would behave in that situation.
SSIS Social and Emotional Learning Brief Scales (SSIS SELb; Elliott et al. 2020; 20 items)
This question will have 20 additional items. These items will consist of all 20 items in the SSIS SELb—Parent K-12 assessment. The items will ask parents or guardians to report behaviors of their child that reflect the child’s social and emotional skills. For each item, they will select how often their child displays each behavior (never, seldom, often, or almost always). The SSIS SELb is proprietary.
