... regulatory reforms in Washington, stagnant lending and revenue declines raised serious questions about how banks would earn money in the future once reductions in credit losses and expense ...cutbacks subside.

This paper describes the design of the interdisciplinary study of the growth and development of Dutch children currently in progress at the University of Nymegen, The Netherlands. The design, known ...as Schaie's 'most efficient' design, is based on a trifactorial developmental model which isolates the contributions to developmental data of the factors age, cohort and time of measurement. In addition, independently selected control groups are employed to assess the impact of testing effects on the children included in the study. The rationale behind the adoption of this design is discussed in the context of the limitations of other approaches to the study of psychological development, and a detailed description of the study plan is given.
