National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health

The National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) is a long-term research project that tracks the health, social, and behavioral development of a large group of U.S. adolescents from their teenage years into adulthood. By collecting data over several years through surveys and interviews, it aims to understand how factors like relationships, environment, and lifestyle influence health and well-being over time. This comprehensive study helps inform policies and programs aimed at improving health outcomes across different populations.
