NLSY79 Child and Young Adult

Appendix E. Sample SPSSx Program for Merging NLSY79 Child/YA & Mother Files

/*********************************************************************

* Sample SPSSx program reads a child-based file extracted from the NLSY79 Child & 

   Young Adult Data.
   It then reads a main Youth file extracted from the NLSY79 main Youth data set. 
* The two files are sorted by case ID and merged to create a child-based file with 

   additional mother  characteristics attached to each child case ID.
* NOTE: Users who start with data in a system file format can skip the steps that 

   read the ASCII files.

Note 1.1: Questions 27 through 30 in the BPI section are not part of the Behavior Problem scale. They were added by CHRR to tap dimensions that are particularly relevant for older children. Items 27-30 were not asked in 1986. In 1988, the order of the final 6 items differs from subsequent survey rounds.
Note 1.2: See Important information below for how to identify individual BPI items for survey years 1986-1998.

Important information: Identifying individual BPI items

One method to quickly identify individual BPI items for 1986-1998 is to perform the following search in the NLS Investigator:

Choose NLSY79 Child/Young Adults as the study
Click on the Variable Search tab
In the Create search criteria section, enter:
- Category = Word in Title (enter search term
- Logical Operator = contains
- Search Term = BEHAVIOR PROBLEMS INDEX
Click the Add button. In the next criteria row enter:
- Category = Word in Title (enter search term)
- Logical Operator = doesn't contain
- Search Term = SCORE
Note: Include only intersecting (AND) should be selected by default.
Click Display Variables

Note: The items in the sociability subscale are administered in the Child Supplement. For survey years 1986-1992, the item names follow this pattern: CS+YR+deck and column # in the paper questionnaire. The "CSYY" string in the Q names for 1994-1998 refers to the Child Supplement, 2-digit Year of Survey.

Appendix A: HOME-SF Scales (NLSY79 Child)

The HOME-SF is divided into four parts:

children under age three;
children between the ages of three and five;
children ages six through nine;
and starting with the 1988 survey round, children ten and over.

The number of individual items varies according to the age of the child. Prior to constructing an overall score and the two subscores for the HOME-SF, all of the individual items are translated into dichotomous zero-one variables and then appropriately summed. More information about the HOME-SF assessment can be found in the Topical Guide.

A complete listing of the HOME-SF items, organized by age and type of report, is provided below in Appendix A-1. For each age group, the (questionnaire item) components of the total scale, as well as the cognitive stimulation and emotional support subscales, are documented, along with the procedure used to recode non-dichotomous responses into dichotomous responses, in Appendices A-2a to A-2d.

Question names for HOME-SF items are provided for the 2002 survey round to the present round. HOME-SF items for prior rounds can be located by searching for "Word in Title (enter search term)" contains HOME PART in the NLS Investigator.

Note for Appendices A-2a to A-2d: All HOME interviewer observation items (CSOB) are not read to the mother but are completed by the interviewer at the conclusion of the Child Supplement.
