Research Tools and Measurement Resources
CHR investigators develop practical, evidence-based tools that other researchers and practitioners can use to strengthen study design, measurement, behavioral coding, and intervention delivery. Below is a set of CHR-developed tools, coding schemes, questionnaires, and methodological resources, each with links to supporting materials and/or ways to access and use them.

Methods for Remote Observations
Guidance and recommendations for conducting remote observational research using virtual visits, with an emphasis on feasibility and data quality.
Maternal Distraction Questionnaire
A questionnaire developed by CHR investigators to assess caregiver distraction and technology use patterns relevant to health and behavior research.
Paced Bottle Feeding Resources
Evidence-informed materials designed to help caregivers and practitioners implement paced bottle-feeding strategies in real-world settings.
Paced Bottle Feeding Assessment
A assessment tool developed by CHR researchers to help practitioners and researchers assess caregivers' adherence to paced bottle-feeding during infant feeding.
