A little over a decade ago, the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Service at Tripler Army Medical Center opened the Child Study Group (CSG), a multidisciplinary diagnostic team clinic for preschool children. The methods and results of the clinic were reported previously (Lee, 1987). The current study is a comparison of the cohort of children seen from January through December 1984 with the parallel group seen from January through June 1994. The paper also presents a brief follow-up study of the children seen in 1994.

It was first reached by Polynesians about 500 A.D. It was discovered and named the Sandwich Islands in 1778 by Captain Cook. The islands were united under the rule of King Kamehameha 1795-1819 and requested annexation to the United States in 1893 when a provisional government was set up. Hawaii was established as a territory in 1900 and admitted as a state in 1959.
