Treatment Process: A Problem at Three Levels, 1988

Investigators: Gerald R. Patterson and Patricia Chamberlain

This study investigates the process of therapeutic intervention in the treatment of oppositional children and their parents. As part of an ongoing program of empirical investigation of treatment process variables, Patterson and Chamberlain employ nonreactive observational measures of behavior to assess the effects of family management training on the behavior of extremely antisocial, preadolescent children. This dataset is comprised of two separate raw data files generated from this research. The first includes therapist-client verbal interaction codes for 73 families participating in the Parent Training treatment program conducted at the Oregon Social Learning Center (OSLC). Three phases of treatment were videotaped. Verbal interactions were coded with the Therapy Process Coding System developed at OSLC. The second dataset includes demographic data gathered during the treatment intake interview.

The U.S. Census County and City Databook, 1983, encompasses descriptive data ascertained from various U.S. census reports. Topics discussed range from basic demographic percentages such as number of whites or blacks in the population or number of females in the workforce to the payroll of retail markets or types of heating used in homes. This Data Set provides city-level profiles. A related Data Set (DAAPPP Data Set No. A9) provides state-level profiles.Note for users of DAAPPP Data Sets #01-B1DAAPPP 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.

U.S. Current Population Survey: Selected Variables-Children, 1980

Investigators: U.S. Census Bureau

The Current Population Survey (CPS) is a monthly household sample survey of individuals living in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Conducted by the Bureau of the Census, this survey is intended to provide a basis for estimates of employment, unemployment, and other characteristics of the general labor force, of the U.S. population as a whole, and of various subgroups of the population. In this survey data on demographic characteristics and employment experiences, for the week preceding the survey, are obtained for household members aged 14 or over. Data are obtained through interviews with a single responsible member of the household. Beginning in 1971, at the request of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, a special supplementary survey was conducted in selected years, in conjunction with the June CPS, to obtain data on individuals' marital and fertility histories and on their birth expectations. Data were also obtained on children residing in the household. The file described here (DAAPPP Data Set No. 13) contains data for 37,970 children aged 13 and under residing in households surveyed in the June 1980 CPS. This file is intended as a supplement to the files for women and men included in the June 1980 CPS (DAAPPP Data Set Nos. 11 and 12, respectively). It provides information on the age, sex, race, ethnic background, and relationship to household head for all children in the participating households.

This file, containing variables on the age, race, sex, and relationship of the respondent to the head of the household, was prepared primarily as a supplement to DAAPPP Data Set No. 14. The data concerns 34,036 children age 13 or under who were living in households surveyed by the CPS.Note for users of DAAPPP Data Sets #01-B1DAAPPP data sets 01 through B1 are comprised of a User's Guide, SPSS syntax files (*.SPS or *.SPX) and raw data files only.

U.S. Current Population Survey: Selected Variables-Females, 1977

Investigators: U.S. Census Bureau

The Current Population Survey (CPS), which is conducted monthly by the Bureau of the Census, provides estimates of employment, unemployment, and other demographic statistics. The June 1977 CPS contained supplementary questions, asked of women only. These questions obtained information about their marital and fertility histories, including total number of liveborn children, birth dates of youngest and oldest children, and details of child-care arrangements for those who worked. The study contains information for 61,847 women from the 50 states and the District of Columbia, from households selected to be representative of the U.S. as a whole. The microcomputer version of the raw data is an extract of 1,013 cases.Note for users of DAAPPP Data Sets #01-B1DAAPPP data sets 01 through B1 are comprised of a User's Guide, SPSS syntax files (*.SPS or *.SPX) and raw data files only.

(Data on the men and children included in that survey are contained in DAAPPP Data Sets No. 12 and No. 13, respectively. These data sets may be used to supplement the information available in the women's records, if desired. However, as noted below, information on selected characteristics of the spouses as well as number, sex, and birthdates of children is already available on the women's file.)

Investigators: U.S. Census Bureau

The June 1982 supplementary survey on marital and fertility history and child-care practices conducted in conjunction with the Current Population Survey (CPS) collected information from a sample of 64,842 women, representative of the U.S. as a whole, from the 50 states and the District of Columbia. The CPS, which is conducted monthly by the Bureau of the Census, provides estimates of employment, unemployment, and other demographic statistics. In the supplement, women 18-59 who had ever been married were asked questions concerning the total number of their liveborn children, the birth dates of the oldest and youngest children, and the date of their first marriage. Women 18-34 were also asked about birth expectations for the future. Information about arrangements for child-care for children under the age of 5 was obtained from women who were currently employed, and education and employment information for current spouses was also obtained. The microcomputer version of the raw data is an extract of 1,013 cases.
