Severely and moderately malnourished and adequately nourished Indian preschool children living in a homogeneous community were identified using weight for height as the criterion index. With the aid of a biographical inventory, developmental and health-related data were elicited from their mothers. The children in the three nutritional status groups did not differ as regards any of the variables studied, except for the type of officer in charge of delivering them. It is suggested that analyses of other variables may yield areas of difference between the nutritional status groups.
