1981-1982 Evaluation of OAPP Adolescent Pregnancy Programs: Individual Level Data I
Investigators: Martha Burt

The Department of Health and Human Services funds service projects for pregnant and parenting teens, teens at risk of pregnancy, and their families and male partners. This study was designed to evaluate project implementation and the impact of project participation on clients. The data in this file and DAAPPP Data Set No. 34 come from projects' use of a voluntary case management system developed by the Urban Institute. The original data came in 20 separate files, each representing a different project. Each file differed in the number of records used for each case. To facilitate use, DAAPPP merged these files and created a large rectangular file, where each case had the same number of records. DAAPPP Data Set No. 33 contains the information from the one project (198 clients) that had up to 28 records of information per case. The data include information on client entry characteristics, pregnancy outcomes, mother and infant follow-ups, and types of services delivered. This file and the following file (DAAPPP Data Set No. 34) are individual- level data files that can be used in conjunction with DAAPPP Data Set No. 10, which contains program-level information on OAPP adolescent pregnancy programs.

Note for users of DAAPPP Data Sets #01-B1
DAAPPP data sets 01 through B1 are comprised of a User's Guide, SPSS syntax files (*.SPS or *.SPX) and raw data files only. Most of these datasets contain SPSS syntax files that use Job Control Language (JCL) from 1980s versions of SPSS-X. Because the syntax is old, the syntax files require editing to conform to the current syntax standards used by SPSS/Windows or SPSS/Unix. If you require technical assistance in using or editing these syntax files, please contact Sociometrics' Data Support Group at 800.846.3475 or socio@socio.com.
