The dataset contains information on cognitive scores, home observation scores, sociodemographic information, illness history, and nutritional status of 163 5-year-old children who participated in the home-observation sub-study of the Entebbe Mother and Baby Study (EMABS). The purpose of the sub-study was to investigate the role of the home environment on neurocognitive function of children in a low income setting.
