Individual Histories as the Focus of Analysis in Longitudinal Surveys Journal of Economics and Business 32,2 (Winter 1980): 126-135 Cohort(s): Young Men Publisher: Temple University Press Keyword(s): Longitudinal Data Sets; Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID); Research Methodology The recent availability of large longitudinal data bases has drawn attention to the problems of analyzing such data. These important data sets provide a framework not present in cross-sectional samples for focusing on individual or household histories. Because most longitudinal data bases contain informational gaps, this study seeks not only to outline a strategy for quantitative exploration of the gap-free sections of individual histories but also to illustrate a method for testing data containing gaps for compatibility with particular stochastic process models. |
