This chapter provides an overview of the diverse ways in which the various dimensions and aspects of child health are now measured, and the sources of those measurements. Since indicators of child health depend on physical and physiological maturation of children as well as age-graded developmental trajectories, the chapter distinguishes measures that are appropriate for children during the prenatal period and the first year of life, for children of preschool ages 1-4, and young school-age children ages 5-11.
