Description
A woman is asked about her general physical and mental health during the 3 months before and during her pregnancy. The five Likert-style administered questions are from the Early Life Exposure Assessment Tool (ELEAT).
Specific Instructions
The Early Life Exposure Assessment Tool (ELEAT) items would be applicable to all populations of pregnant populations, but may be less reliable for teen pregnancies.
Although the questions are about different time periods, they can all be asked at one time.
Questions may need to be modified depending on which group is being assessed, for example, if the questions are administered to refugees or widely disparate socioeconomic groups.

Personnel and Training Required
The interviewer must be trained to conduct personal interviews with individuals from the general population. The interviewer must be trained and found to be competent (i.e., tested by an expert) at the completion of personal interviews. The interviewer should be trained to prompt respondents further if a "don’t know" response is provided.
Equipment Needs
The PhenX Working Group acknowledges these questions can be administered in a computerized or non-computerized format (i.e., paper-and-pencil instrument). Computer software is necessary to develop computer-assisted instruments. The interviewer will require a laptop computer/handheld computer to administer a computer-assisted questionnaire.
Requirements
| Requirement Category | Required |
|---|---|
| Major equipment | No |
| Specialized training | No |
| Specialized requirements for biospecimen collection | No |
| Average time of greater than 15 minutes in an unaffected individual | No |
