National Survey of Family Growth, Cycle V, 1995
  • National Survey of Family Growth, Cycle V, 1995

    Investigators: National Center for Health Statistics

    This is the fifth in a series of periodic surveys of women 15-44 years of age. Previous surveys were conducted in 1973, 1976, 1982, and 1988 with a telephone reinterview of the 1988 respondents in 1990. Topics covered in previous interviews included the month and year of first intercourse; pregnancy, contraceptive, marital, and cohabitation histories, employment and occupation, child care, fecundity and sterility, prenatal medical care, family planning services, birth expectations, ethnicity, education, religion, and income. For Cycle 5, event histories of education, living arrangements during childhood, and work have been added, along with complete marital and cohabitation histories, and sexual partner histories for 5 years prior to the interview. The survey also included, for the first time in 1995, characteristics of male partners, new items on consistency of contraceptive use, new questions on pregnancy wantedness, and a computer-assisted selfadministered section containing questions on sensitive topics such as abortion and forced intercourse. The overall objective of the NSFG is to supplement the vital statistics of fertility and of family formation and dissolution, with more detailed data on the "intermediate variables" which shape these trends and on the health and socioeconomic contexts in which they occur. The uses of the data gathered in the NSFG are broad, though mostly in the health and demographic fields. The 1995 NSFG obtained detailed information on factors affecting childbearing from a national probability sample of women 15 to 44 years of age. The purpose of the survey is to produce national estimates and an information base on factors affecting pregnancy including sexual activity, contraceptive use, infertility, and sources of family planning services and the health of women and infants. For Cycle 5, interviewing and data processing were conducted by the Research Triangle Institute, under a contract with NCHS.

National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) 2015
  • National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) 2015

    Investigators: Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA)

    The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) series (formerly titled National Household Survey on Drug Abuse) primarily measures the prevalence and correlates of drug use in the United States. The surveys are designed to provide quarterly, as well as annual estimates. Information is provided on the use of illicit drugs, alcohol, and tobacco among members of United States households aged 12 and older. Questions included age at first use as well as lifetime, annual, and past-month usage for the following drug classes: marijuana, cocaine (and crack), hallucinogens, heroin, inhalants, alcohol, tobacco, and nonmedical use of prescription drugs, including pain relievers, tranquilizers, stimulants, and sedatives. The survey covered substance abuse treatment history and perceived need for treatment, and included questions from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) of Mental Disorders that allow diagnostic criteria to be applied. The survey included questions concerning treatment for both substance abuse and mental health-related disorders. Respondents were also asked about personal and family income sources and amounts, health care access and coverage, illegal activities and arrest record, problems resulting from the use of drugs, and needle-sharing. Questions introduced in previous administrations were retained in the 2015 survey, including questions asked only of respondents aged 12 to 17. These "youth experiences" items covered a variety of topics, such as neighborhood environment, illegal activities, drug use by friends, social support, extracurricular activities, exposure to substance abuse prevention and education programs, and perceived adult attitudes toward drug use and activities such as school work. Several measures focused on prevention-related themes in this section. Also retained were questions on mental health and access to care, perceived risk of using drugs, perceived availability of drugs, driving and personal behavior, and cigar smoking. Questions on the tobacco brand used most often were introduced with the 1999 survey. For the 2008 survey, adult mental health questions were added to measure symptoms of psychological distress in the worst period of distress that a person experienced in the past 30 days and suicidal ideation. In 2008, a split-sample design also was included to administer separate sets of questions (WHODAS vs. SDS) to assess impairment due to mental health problems. Beginning with the 2009 NSDUH, however, all of the adults in the sample received only the WHODAS questions. Background information includes gender, race, age, ethnicity, marital status, educational level, job status, veteran status, and current household composition.

National Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) 2011
  • National Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) 2011

    Investigators: Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

    The Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (YRBSS) is an epidemiologic surveillance system established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to monitor the prevalence of youth behaviors that most influence health. The 2005 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) is one component of the YRBS. The 2011 National Youth Behavior Risk Survey (YRBS) is a school-based survey that provides data representative of 9th through 12th grade students in public and private schools in the United States. Since 1991, the YRBS has been conducted every two years by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The national YRBS is one component of a larger surveillance system called the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (YRBSS) that monitors six priority health-risk behaviors that contribute markedly to the leading causes of death, disability, and social problems among youth and adults in the United States. The 2011 National YRBS data set contains 207 variables administered to 15,425 respondents. Data were collected on the following priority risk behaviors among youth including: sexual behaviors that contribute to unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV infection; behaviors that contribute to unintentional injuries and violence; alcohol and other drug use; tobacco use; unhealthy dietary behaviors; and inadequate physical activity. The YRBS also measures the prevalence of obesity and asthma among youth and young adults.

National Youth Risk Behavior Survey, 1993
  • National Youth Risk Behavior Survey, 1993

    Investigators:

    The school-based 1993 National Youth Risk Behavior Survey (1993 National YRBS) was conducted by the Division of Adolescent and School Health, National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The National YRBS is one component of the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (YRBSS), an epidemiological surveillance system that was established by (CDC) to monitor the prevalence of major risk behaviors among American youth. The 1993 National YRBS focuses on priority health-risk behaviors established during youth that result in the most significant mortality, morbidity, disability, and social problems during both youth and adulthood. These include: behaviors that result in unintentional and intentional injuries; tobacco use; alcohol and other drug use; sexual behaviors that result in HIV infection, other sexually-transmitted diseases (STDs) and unintended pregnancies; dietary behaviors; and physical activity. This data set contains information on 91 variables from a nationwide sample of 16,296 students in grades 9-12, who were surveyed during February through May 1993. Results from the 1993 National YRBS will be used by CDC to: (1) monitor how priority health-risk behaviors among high school students (grades 9-12) increase, decrease, or remain the same over time; (2) evaluate the impact of broad national, state, and local efforts to prevent priority health-risk behaviors; and (3) monitor progress in achieving relevant national health objectives for the year 2000. Results also will be used to help focus programs and policies for comprehensive school health education on the behaviors that contribute most to the leading causes of mortality and morbidity.

National Youth Victimization Prevention Survey, 1992-1994
  • National Youth Victimization Prevention Survey, 1992-1994

    Investigators: David Finkelhor

    There were two primary goals of the National Youth Victimization Prevention Survey. The first was to derive estimates of various forms of victimization among youths. The second was to obtain childrenís assessments of the victimization prevention programs which many schools have begun offering over the past decade. Data were collected by telephone survey from 2000 randomly sampled children between the ages of 10 and 16 and their caretakers. Children were interviewed at two time points, the initial survey time and a 15 month follow-up. In addition to collecting basic demographic information, the survey asked children to recall details of victimizations personally experienced, respond to a test of knowledge about sexual victimization, recall the content of prevention programs to which they were exposed, render judgments regarding the usefulness of these programs, report on behavioral, social and psychological troubles (including offense behavior and substance abuse), and express opinions on a range of topics including the level of crime in their schools and in their neighborhoods, and the survey itself. The data consists of two files, one for each wave of data collection. The wave one file includes 2000 observations and 727 variables. The file contains all of the information obtained from the parent and child interviews administered in wave one as well as the case weights, derived variables and constructed variables. The wave two file includes 1457 observations and 897 variables. The file contains all of the information obtained from the parent and child interviews administered in wave two as well as the case weights, estimate weights, and derived and constructed variables.

New York City Study of the Social and Demographic Consequences of Teenage Childbearing, 1973-1976
  • New York City Study of the Social and Demographic Consequences of Teenage Childbearing, 1973-1976

    Investigators: Harriet B. Presser

    This study may be described as a follow-back survey of three first-parity cohorts of New York City women: 310 women aged 15-29 who had their first birth in July of 1970, 1971 or 1972. It investigates the relationship between women's roles and fertility, focusing on the age at which women had their first child. In particular, it seeks to determine some of the distinctive role-related aspects of teenage childbearing and childrearing relative to those who postpone motherhood until their twenties. Data for the analysis is a longitudinal study (1973-1976) in three boroughs of New York City, conducted in three waves of interviews. Although the longitudinal period between interviews is only three years, retrospective and prospective questions asked during the interviews permit analysis of the span from early childhood to middle age. 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. 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.
