- Summary:
-
The 1996 National Household Education Survey (NHES:96) was a random digit dial telephone survey of households developed by the National Center for Education Statistics and conducted by Westat, Inc. The NHES:96 included two topical survey components, "Parent and Family Involvement in Education," (PFI) which collected data about family involvement in children's schooling, and "Civic Involvement," (CI) which collected data about participation in civic activities and attitudes toward government. This manual provides documentation and guidance for users of the public release data file for the Parent and Family Involvement in Education and Civic Involvement (Parent PFI/CI) component of the NHES:96. This volume contains a description of the Parent PFI/CI file and a discussion of data considerations and anomalies. The file consists of data from all completed Parent PFI/CI interviews. There are 3 records for each interview, so the file contains 62,376 records for the 20,792 completed interviews. Data items are listed in the following order: (1) system variables; (2) household membership variables; (3) questionnaire item variables; (4) household characteristic variables; (5) derived variables; (6) weighting and variance estimation variables; and (7) imputation flag variables. Included as appendixes are the public file layout, the Statistical Analysis System code for creating derived variables, the codebook for the Parent PFI/CI public data file, and directions and sample code for linking NHES:96 files. This volume is meant to be read in conjunction with Volume I, an overview of survey methodology. (SLD)
