From Technology at ICPSR - Google and Facebook join MyData as one of the ways to login to ICPSR

After an unexpected delay we finally rolled out two new ways to authenticate to the ICPSR web site. In addition to using the original ICPSR MyData account, web site visitors may now use either their Facebook account or Google ID to login to the ICPSR web site.

We wanted to make this type of service available because it is clear that most of our web site visitors who download data use it just once, or only infrequently. And so for every researcher or scholar that uses ICPSR on a regular basis, there are two casual users who just want to download a dataset as quickly and easily as possible.

For this latter audience MyData doesn't make sense. Why create a new account with a new password for something that may never be used again?

Now, people who would like to use their Facebook account or Google ID to identify themselves may do so. And, better still, if the person is already logged into either service, they do not have to login again to ICPSR. (This is often called SSO for Single Sign-On.)

We also looked at supporting the OpenID service, but our experience was that OpenIDs were a little too confusing for people. The idea that one's identity is a URL rather than an email address is less common, and it felt too foreign to most people.

We hope the new login options are useful, and make it even easier to use ICPSR.

From IES Newsflash - NCES is sponsoring a three-day seminar on the use of the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten Class of 1998-99 (ECLS-K) database

Using the ECLS-K Database for Research and Policy Discussion (ECLS-K Database Training)

The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) is sponsoring a three-day advanced studies seminar on the use of the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten Class of 1998–99 (ECLS-K) database on June 7-9, 2011. The ECLS-K allows researchers to examine the relationships among a wide range of child, family, teacher, classroom, and school variables and children’s development and performance in elementary and middle school. The training this year will focus on the ECLS-K restricted data (e.g., special education teacher data, geocode information, etc.). Applicants must demonstrate that their specific research interests are related to information that can only be found in the restricted data files.

Advanced graduate students and faculty members from colleges and universities nationwide, and researchers, education practitioners, and policy analysts from federal, state, and local education, human services agencies, and professional associations are invited to apply.

There is no fee to attend this seminar. NCES will provide training materials as well as computers for hands-on practice. For out-of-town participants, NCES also will pay for transportation, hotel accommodations, and a fixed per diem for meals and incidental expenses during the training seminar.

Deadline for applications: May 6, 2011

From ICPSR News - Add Health Wave IV public data available

The Data Sharing for Demographic Research project at ICPSR is proud to announce the release of the Add Health Wave IV public data.

Wave IV consists of data from the most recent of four in-home interviews which have followed a nationally representative sample of adolescents since they were in grades 7-12 during the 1994-195 school year. The Wave IV interviews were completed in 2008, when the sample was aged 24-32. The study combines longitudinal survey data on respondents' social, economic, psychological, and physical well-being with data on the family, neighborhood, community, school, friendships, peer groups, and romantic relationships.

Add Health has been one of the most downloaded datasets from ICPSR.

The Wave IV public data is available for download under Study #21600.

From ICPSR News - ICPSR releases data on NCAA graduation rates

ICPSR is pleased to announce the release of the NCAA Division I and II Graduation Success Rate, 1995-2002 dataset.

The release is the second from ICPSR’s NCAA Student-Athlete Experiences Data Archive, established in 2010 to make data available to the public that has been collected by the National Collegiate Athletic Association. The NCAA’s goal in providing the data is to help answer research questions posed by college presidents, athletics personnel, faculty, student-athlete groups, the media, and others in the higher-education community.

Traditionally, data on graduation rates and academic achievement for student-athletes have been released each year. Packaging several years of data together helps foster multiple types of analysis that were previously more difficult.

The newly released dataset contains measurements of federally defined graduation rates; Division I Graduation Success Rates (GSR) for student-athletes who transfer in to a given institution, discounting those who separate from that institution who would have been academically ineligible if they had returned; and Division II Academic Success Rates (ASR), which is identical to GSR except that it also includes freshmen who did not receive athletic aid but participated in athletics.

The federal and NCAA measures of academic success for student-athletes are presented side-by-side with similar data for the student body as a whole to aid in analytic comparisons within and across each population.

The first dataset released by the Student-Athlete Experiences Data Archive was the NCAA Division I Academic Progress Rate, 2009.

The NCAA expects to release more data through the ICPSR archive in the near future.

From ICPSR - NAHDAP disseminating restricted-use data on acquisition and transmission of HIV

The National Addiction & HIV Data Archive Program is pleased to announce the release of its first restricted-use dataset on HIV, the Sexual Acquisition and Transmission of HIV Cooperative Agreement Program (SATHCAP), 2006-2008.

SATHCAP is a multisite study designed to assess the role of drug use in the sexual transmission of HIV from high-risk groups, such as gay men and drug users, to lower-risks groups, such as non-drug-using sexual partners.

The dataset is the second restricted-use release by NAHDAP, which archives and disseminates data from research funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA).

To access the data, users must first set up a MyData account, and then fill out a Restricted Use Contract Data application.

Please contact Sabrina Bauroth at savripas@umich.edu or 734-615-7827 if you have any questions about the SATHCAP Restricted Use Contract application.

From ICPSR News - NCRP Data - Restricted Access

The National Corrections Reporting Program (NCRP) data are currently available only as Restricted-Use Data through the National Archive of Criminal Justice Data (NACJD). The reason for removing the NCRP data from the direct public access has to do with BJS' response to new requirements pertaining to protecting the confidentiality of persons in statistical data collections. BJS and NACJD are undertaking a data disclosure review of the NCRP data. This process will identify whether some details should be made available only through restricted access. If any details are identified, a new public version of NCRP data will be made available on the NACJD Web site, and users needing more detail will be able to request the restricted data files. Please contact nacjd@icpsr.umich.edu with any questions or concerns.

The restricted data contain the same variables that have previously been publicly available through NACJD. Users interested in obtaining these data must complete a Restricted Data Use Agreement form and specify the reasons for the request. A copy of the Restricted Data Use Agreement form can be downloaded at: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/NACJD/private/, or requested by calling 800-999-0960. Completed forms should be returned to:

Director, National Archive of Criminal Justice Data
Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research
Institute for Social Research
P.O. Box 1248
University of Michigan
Ann Arbor, MI 48106-1248
or by fax: 734-647-8200

Upon submission and approval of the restricted access application, NCRP data, with the level of detail traditionally made available, will be sent to the user.

From ICPSR News - ICPSR offers guidelines on data management plans

As one of the leaders in data archiving for nearly 50 years, ICPSR is in a unique position to assist researchers with the data management plans increasingly being required by federal funding agencies such as NIH and NSF. Therefore, we are pleased to offer a new set of guidelines for preparing data management plans. We hope these resources can assist researchers in all disciplines meet these new requirements, and better understand how to preserve and disseminate their research data.

Our guidelines provide a detailed list of the elements of a data management plan, developed through a gap analysis of existing recommendations for such plans. We also list existing examples of data management plans, as well as other resources available on the Web.

Depositing data with ICPSR can be an integral part of a data management plan. In fact, the NSF's Directorate for Social, Behavioral & Economic Sciences recently named ICPSR as an archive that would help grant applicants meet its requirement for data storage. Our data management plan guidelines also provide information on how to deposit data with ICPSR.

We plan to update our guidelines regularly, and welcome any suggestions via email at web-support@icpsr.umich.edu.

ICPSR is also hosting a Webinar on data management plans as part of our Social Science Data Fair scheduled for November 8-11. Enrollment is currently open for all sessions.

From ICPSR News: National Longitudinal Mortality Study

The National Longitudinal Mortality Study (NLMS) consists of a database developed for the purpose of studying the effects of demographic and socio-economic characteristics on differentials in U.S. mortality rates. The NLMS is a unique research database in that it is based on a multistage stratified sample of the non-institutionalized population of the United States. It consists of U.S. Census Bureau data from Current Population Surveys, Annual Social and Economic Supplements and a subset of the 1980 Census, combined with death certificate information to identify mortality status and cause of death. The study currently consists of approximately 3.0 million records with over 250,000 identified mortality cases. The content of the socio-economic variables available offers researchers the potential to answer questions on mortality differentials for a variety of important socio-economic and demographic subgroups not covered as extensively in other databases.

From ICPSR - 2011 ICPSR and RCMD Research Paper Competitions

The Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research and the Research Center for Minority Data are pleased to announce our 2011 Research Paper Competitions. This year, ICPSR and RCMD are holding three competitions – two for undergraduates and one for master’s students.

The purpose of these competitions is to highlight student research papers using RCMD or ICPSR data. The objective is to encourage students to explore the social sciences by means of critical analysis of a topic supported by quantitative analysis of a dataset(s) held within ICPSR or the RCMD archive and presented in written form. Entries to the either undergraduates or master’s competition could be papers written for a capstone course, a senior seminar, or any writing intensive course for which the student uses quantitative data analysis to support or refute a hypothesis. A master’s thesis could be appropriate provided that the terms above are met.

One of the undergraduate competitions is for papers using data in the RCMD archive; the other can use dataset(s) from any ICPSR archive. The master’s competition can use data from any ICPSR archive.

Competitions awards are $1,000 for first place and $750 for second place. The deadline for submission is January 31, 2011. For more information, submission guidelines, and promotional posters, please visit the competition Web site <http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/prize/index.jsp> . Please share this exciting opportunity with your faculty and students!

From ICPSR: Release of Integrated Fertility Survey Series (IFSS) Website

ICPSR is pleased to announce the launch of the Integrated Fertility Survey Series (IFSS) project website, which is located at: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/IFSS/

With funding from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute for Child Health and Human Development, the Integrated Fertility Survey Series project seeks to produce a harmonized dataset of U.S. family and fertility surveys spanning the 1955-2002 period, including the 1955 and 1960 Growth of American Families (GAF); the 1965 and 1970 National Fertility Surveys (NFS); and the 1973, 1976, 1982, 1988, 1995, and 2002 National Surveys of Family Growth (NSFG). The Integrated Fertility Survey Series (IFSS) and its associated data products will facilitate analyses across time, yielding new insights into changes in fertility and the family.

The accompanying IFSS website enables users to access standardized data files and documentation, use Survey Documentation Analysis (SDA), and browse related publications for each of the ten component surveys. Future tools will permit users to navigate harmonized data files, evaluate variable comparability across time, and conduct analyses with ease.

From ICPSR: Announcement of 2009 ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research

The Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) is pleased to announce the 2009 Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research.

As many subscribers to this list already know, the main component of the ICPSR Summer Program is held on the campus of the University of Michigan, in Ann Arbor. Lectures and workshops on a wide variety of topics in research design, quantitative reasoning, statistical methods, and data processing are presented in two four-week sessions. The first session runs from June 22, 2009 until July 17, 2009. The second session runs from July 20, 2009 until August 14, 2009. The contents of the two sessions are largely independent of each other, although some second-session workshops do assume that participants are familiar with material from first-session courses.

The 2009 ICPSR Summer Program will also offer a number of three- to five-day workshops on both statistical and substantive topics throughout the summer. These shorter workshops are held in a variety of locations: Amherst, MA; Ann Arbor, MI; Bloomington, IN; Chapel Hill, NC; and New Haven, CT.

We are currently accepting applications for all of our courses. The application form, registration instructions, fee structure, and further information about the ICPSR Summer Program are all available on our web site:

http://icpsr.umich.edu/sumprog/

Please feel free to e-mail us with any further questions at: sumprog@icpsr.umich.edu

The complete course list for the 2009 ICPSR Summer Program is provided below. We would like to draw your attention to several new and revised features in this year’s Program. First, we would like to mention several new statistical courses: A five-day workshop on “Empirical Models for Time-Series Cross-Section Data,” another five-day workshop on “Multilevel Models for Longitudinal Data using SAS,” a workshop during the first four-week session on “Introduction to Programming with R,” and workshops during the second-four week session on “Complex Systems Models in the Social Sciences,” “Causal Inference for the Social Sciences,” and “Longitudinal Analysis of Historical Demographic Data.” Second, we have expanded our offerings in the field of network analysis. There are two introductory workshops (a three-day course held in Amherst, MA and a five-day course in Chapel Hill, NC), a five-day workshop on theory and methods of network analysis (held in Bloomington, IN), and two more advanced workshops (“Network Analysis: An Accelerated Introduction” and “Network Analysis: A Second Course”). Third, we are offering two sections of the popular workshop, “Hierarchical Linear Models I: Introduction.” One will be held in Amherst, MA and and the other will be in Bloomington, IN. Finally, there are several innovations in the Hubert M. Blalock Lecture Series in Advanced Methods of Social Research, such as an expanded, two-week, series of lectures on “Data Mining” and a series of three lectures on “New Strategies for Regression Anaysis: Dimension Reduction and Inverse Regression.” By introducing these new courses, we are responding to the expressed interests of the social scientific research community, and providing coverage of statistical procedures that are receiving increasing attention within methodological circles.

Reminder: ICPSR Undergraduate Internship Application Deadline is Approaching!

Application Deadline is February 2, 2009!

The ICPSR Internship is a 10-week program designed to familiarize students with social science research, data preparation, and analysis. Interns work in the UNIX and Windows environments and gain experience using statistical programs such as SAS, SPSS, and Stata to check data. Data processing skills will be applied to prepare social science data for permanent archiving and distribution for secondary analysis; preserving respondent anonymity; and composing descriptions of data collections. These positions are supervised by an experienced Research Associate.

Interns attend courses in the ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research. Interns will be required to attend a weekly Lunch and Lecture series that will expose them to various aspects and departments of ICPSR and Institute for Social Research (ISR). There may be additional social and work-related functions involving other ICPSR staff and interns from other ISR units and summer programs.

This is a paid internship.

As the academic terms draws to a close and help resources diminish for the next few weeks, we thought this an appropriate time to remind you of ICPSR’s Data User Help Center. The posted tutorials can resolve many common questions related to reading data into statistical software as well as resolving some frequent problems in getting set-up files to run in Windows and questions on establishing MyData accounts.

This online resource provides a variety of tutorials designed to help data users with using ICPSR data and related resources. Its overall goal is to provide data users with comprehensive answers, 24 hours a day/7days a week, to the most common problems they experience.

Moreover, the help center provides several media options to accommodate different learning styles including those who learn best by using video, audio, or print-out instructions. In addition, PowerPoint presentations of the tutorials are available for individuals who find it necessary to take groups through the tutorials.

ICPSR Online Learning Center - Opening Doors to Quantitative Literacy!

ICPSR is pleased to announce the official launch of the Online Learning Center (OLC). The site is located at: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/OLC/ and can be found under the Courses & Learning Tools tab on the ICPSR front page.

ICPSR’s Online Learning Center (OLC) supports quantitative literacy in the social sciences by providing an effective and reliable means of bringing data into the classroom. OLC tools were designed, built, and tested by teaching faculty.

Currently numbering 30 (with more added continually), our Data-Driven Learning Guides are designed for in-class presentation or as supplemental activities for students demonstrating a variety of types of data analysis and substantive concepts. Available on-demand 24/7, DDLGs:

* Demonstrate core concepts using prepared data with missing data and weights accommodated.
* Avoid the hassles of software licensing, setup, and instruction.
* Are easily customized to your teaching approach and syllabus.
* Are appropriate as supplemental exercises or for in-class demonstrations.

Please share this with your teaching community. We look forward to your feedback and suggestions via email, the OLC Blog, or the OLC listserv all available through the OLC website.

Need materials to publicize the OLC resource? ICPSR has a promotional packet ready for mailed distribution to our members. Please email us with the number of copies desired and the preferred mailing address.

Best wishes for the academic season!

ICPSR Internship Program

The Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR), the world’s largest archive of digital social science data, is now accepting applications for its annual summer undergraduate internship program which will take place June 8 through August 14, 2009. Summer Interns will work in a UNIX environment and gain experience using statistical programs to check data for content and accuracy; prepare data for permanent archiving and distribution for secondary analysis; preserve respondent anonymity; and compose descriptions of data collections. These positions require a strong interest in social science research. Applicants should have successfully completed their undergraduate sophomore year in a social science major and possess strong analytical, research, and written and verbal communication skills. Knowledge of statistical software packages (i.e., SPSS, SAS, Stata), demonstrated leadership skills, and the ability to prioritize multiple tasks are also essential.

From ICPSR: Space Available in ICPSR Summer Program Courses

Greetings from the ICPSR Summer Program! We want to announce that there are a few spaces still available in several of our five-day statistical workshops. This is your opportunity to take an intensive course covering a salient topic in quantitative social research methodology.

The ICPSR Summer Program faculty and staff provide an excellent classroom experience. Our instructors are all well-known social scientists. In many cases, they have literally "written the book" on their respective topics. Workshop participants find that they are not only exposed to the relevant material, but are also able to apply the concepts and methods to their own research projects immediately after finishing the course.

The following workshops still have openings for interested participants:

Categorical Data Analysis

From IES Newsflash: New IES report from the National Center for Education Statistics

The National Center for Education Statistics within the Institute of Education Sciences has released the report "Teacher Career Choices: Timing of Teacher Careers Among 1992-93 Bachelor's Degree Recipients (NCES 2008-153)."

This report uses longitudinal data from the 1992-93 Baccalaureate and Beyond Study (B&B:93/03) to analyze the teaching career choices of 1992-93 bachelor's degree recipients. As of 2003, some 87 percent of graduates reported not teaching in 1994, 1997, and 2003 (nonteachers). Of the 13 percent of graduates who were teaching at one or more of the three follow-up interviews, 31 percent taught consistently, 41 percent were late starters, 16 percent were leavers, and 12 percent were other teachers. The report also provides an in-depth look at the teacher career choices of those graduates with various demographic characteristics, academic backgrounds, teaching assignments, and salaries. Among those who taught, graduates with dependents in each year (1993, 1997, and 2003) taught consistently at higher rates than graduates without dependents. Most graduates who taught consistently had majored in education for their bachelor's degree (77 percent). On the other hand, 40 percent of edu
cation majors were not teaching at the elementary/secondary level in 1994, 1997, or 2003. Many of the 1992-93 graduates who became teachers had earned a master's degree or higher by 2003 and had done so at higher rates than graduates who did not teach: 39 percent of graduates who taught had attained a master's degree or higher by 2003, compared with about one-quarter of those who did not teach. The results in this report may inform research on teacher supply and demand, teacher attrition, and teacher retention.

From ICPSR: New Resource Supports FCD's PK-3 Initiative

ICPSR is pleased to announce a new Web site in support of FCD's PK-3 Initiative

* A PK-3 DATA RESOURCE CENTER: THE FIRST SIX YEARS OF SCHOOLING AND BEYOND
* NEW FUNDING OPPORTUNITY

The PK-3 Data Resource Center (http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/PK3/) provides access to four longitudinal datasets selected for their potential to inform PK-3 policy and practice. Resource guides assist researchers in creating extract data files. Links to PK-3 publications provide more information about PK-3.

The datasets are:

* Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten Cohort (ECLS-K)
* National Head Start/Public School Early Childhood Transition Demonstration Study
* National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY), Child Surveys * Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID), Child Development Supplement

Research on how well integrated children's learning experiences are across the years from PK through Third Grade, and its impact on children's educational achievement and well-being is needed. PK-3 is the first part of a P-16 education system--from birth through postsecondary education. A PK-3 approach integrates and coordinates learning experiences across the first six years of schooling, PK through Third Grade.

The Foundation for Child Development (FCD) (http://www.fcd-us.org/) announces a small grants program
(http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/PK3/spotlight/rfp.html) to be funded through its PK-3 Research and Evaluation Forum. A maximum of four awards of up to $50,000 each will be awarded to researchers proposing to use one or more datasets from the PK-3 Data Resource Center.

For questions about the RFP contact research@fcd-us.org.

For questions about the PK-3 Data Resource Center pk3@icpsr.umich.edu.

This Web site is hosted by ICPSR with support from the Foundation for Child Development.

From ICPSR Official Reps list: Multiple Versions of TIGER/Line Files Available at ICPSR

1990-2006 versions of TIGER/Line Files are now available for download. The new Web site, TIGER/Line Files@ICPSR offers data no longer available online from the US Census Bureau. TIGER is an acronym for Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing and provides users with the appropriate data to prepare maps through geographic information system (GIS) software packages.

As the Census Bureau states, "The TIGER/Line files are a digital database of geographic features, such as roads, railroads, rivers, lakes, legal boundaries, census statistical boundaries, etc., covering the entire United States. The database contains information about these features such as their location in latitude and longitude, the name, the type of feature, address ranges for most streets, the geographic relationship to other features, and other related information."

The cartographic information in these files reports on all counties and statistically equivalent entities in the United States as well as files for Puerto Rico and the Island Areas. Since its inception in 1988, the TIGER Line Files have been continually improved with updated address and more precise geographic data.

Researchers use TIGER data to build shapefiles that contain geographic attributes for points, lines, or polygons and are used in a variety of mapping applications. Once the shapefiles are loaded into GIS software packages, researchers can input subject matter data, such as Census population and housing information, as overlays on the maps.

ICPSR has the 1990 version of these files available as well as several versions based on Census 2000 information, including the most recent second edition files from 2006. Data for individual counties can be downloaded from special map or table interfaces on the Web site. Data for entire states may also be downloaded.

2008 ICPSR Summer Program

Greetings from the ICPSR Summer Program! This message is to let you know that the web site for the 2008 Summer Program is now online at:

www.icpsr.umich.edu/sumprog/

We are currently accepting applications for all of our courses.

* Note that the competitive workshops have application deadlines, which are listed in their course descriptions.

* The statistical three- and five-day workshops have enrollment caps (usually, 20 participants); any applications received after the maximum is reached for a course will be added to a waiting list.

* There is no application deadline for the four-week lectures and workshops. However, note that enrollment fees for Program Scholars are slightly higher for applications received after April 30, 2008.

Noteworthy and new courses in the 2008 Summer Program curriculum include:

* Quantitative Research on Race and Ethnicity
* Analyzing Multilevel and Mixed Models Using Stata
* Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods
* Introduction to Applied Bayesian Modeling
* Advanced Bayesian Models
* Integrating Biomarkers into Population-Based Research
* Panel Data Analysis Using Stata
* Confidentiality and Disclosure Issues in Data Collection
* Collaborative Psychiatric Epidemiology Surveys
* Welfare, Children, and Families: A Three-City Study
* Using Secondary Data for Analysis of Marriage and the Family

In the preceding list, we would like to particularly draw your attention to several of the statistical workshops: The new courses on "Analyzing Multilevel and Mixed Models in Stata" and "Panel Data Analysis Using Stata" will cover important methodological approaches using a very popular statistical software package. The two workshops, "Introduction to Applied Bayesian Modeling" and "Advanced Bayesian Models" comprise a two-course sequence that provides broad coverage of Bayesian statistical methods. We are also offering a five-day workshop on the same general topic, "Introduction to Applied Bayesian Statistics for Social Scientists," in Chapel Hill, NC. By offering these new courses, we are responding to the expressed interests of the social scientific research community, and providing coverage of a statistical paradigm that is receiving increasing attention within methodological circles.

We hope that you, and prospective participants from your institution, find the 2008 ICPSR Summer Program to be interesting and useful for your interests and methodological training needs!

Director, ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research, University of Michigan

ICPSR Announces: Launch of the Online Learning Center - Teaching Resources!

ICPSR is pleased to announce the beta launch of the Online Learning Center (OLC). The site is located at: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/OLC/ and can be found under the Courses & Learning Tools tab on the ICPSR main page.

The OLC is the result of discussions with teaching faculty about using data in their classrooms and the challenges such undertakings can entail. Instructors directed ICPSR to develop tools that would: 1) quickly locate relevant data that are easy to work with and that nicely demonstrate the concept(s), and 2) enable the instructor to customize the materials to their own teaching approach and syllabus.

To that end, Data-driven Learning Guides, a core element of the OLC, were created for the express purpose of making ICPSR data more user-friendly for classroom exercises. The guides are designed for faculty to use for in-class demonstrations or to assign as supplemental activities for giving students greater exposure to concepts.

Note: This launch is a beta launch of the OLC. More topics, guides, and tools will continue to be added over the coming weeks and months. The purpose of the beta launch is to go live and allow instructors to use the site while encouraging their feedback and watching for any potential bugs in the site's use. A more widely-publicized full launch is expected in Summer 2008.

ICPSR Announces Launch of QualAnon

DSDR (Data Sharing for Demographic Rsearch) announces the availability of a new Web based tool to assist in the anonymization of qualitative data. In collaboration with Susan Watkins at the University of Pennsylvania and ICPSR CNS programmer Peggy Overcashier, we have developed a Web based program that streamlines the process of removing or changing identifiers in qualitative data.

The program, QualAnon, takes a user-generated name key to replace identified names with pseudonyms. It has several options, including the option to have an annotated document created that identifies where specific changes have been made in the document. The program also creates a summary report that specifies the number of times a specific name has been replaced. In addition, QualAnon has a "batch" option that allows the users to anonymize several documents at once by uploading multiple documents as a Zip file using one corresponding name key.

Access QualAnon

QualAnon is a tool to assist in the removal of identifiers in qualitative research. It is not intended to replace the researcher's role in reducing disclosure risk and minimizing breach of respondent confidentiality.

ICPSR Undergraduate Research Paper Competitions - Papers Due Jan 31!

ICPSR is sponsoring two undergraduate research paper competitions for the 2007/2008 academic year. The first competition, sponsored by the general archive at ICPSR, requires a research paper supported by quantitative analysis of any dataset(s) held within the ICPSR archive or any of its special topic archives.

The second competition is sponsored by the Minority Data Resource Center (MDRC). The paper must address issues relevant to underrepresented minorities in the United States including immigrants, and data must be drawn from the MDRC. A separate committee will be formed to judge this competition.

With the exception of the dataset and topic requirements, the competitions are identical in awards, eligibility, and preparation requirements.

The purpose of these competitions is to highlight the best undergraduate student research papers using quantitative data. The objective is to encourage undergraduates to explore the social sciences by means of critical analysis of a topic supported by quantitative analysis of a dataset(s) held within the ICPSR archives and presented in written form.

· Up to three cash prizes will be awarded for each competition. The winner will receive a monetary award of $1,000. Second place receives $750 and third place $500.

· Deadline for submission is January 31, 2008.

More details can be found at: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/prize/.

ICPSR Data User Help Center Launched!

ICPSR is pleased to announce the beta launch of the ICPSR Data User Help Center! - http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/ICPSR/help/datausers/

This online resource provides a variety of tutorials designed to help data users with using ICPSR data and related resources. Its overall goal is to provide data users with comprehensive answers, 24 hours a day/7 days a week, to the most common problems they experience.

Moreover, the help center provides several media options to accommodate different learning styles including those who learn best by using video, audio, or print-out instructions. In addition, PowerPoint presentations of the tutorials are available for individuals who find it necessary to take groups through the tutorials.

Links to the Data User Help Center can be found under the Help tab and the Data tab on the ICPSR Web site - http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/ICPSR/

While help center is still under construction and will undergo continuous updating and populating, it currently contains tutorials on reading data (ASCII files) into statistical programs including SPSS, SAS, and Stata, as well as a few other tutorials. These tutorials were prioritized for development since they are the most frequent problems supported by the ICPSR User Support group.

A special thanks to Sue Hodge, ICPSR User Support, for developing and narrating the tutorials!

As the academic terms draws to a close and help resources for your data users may be scarce for the next few weeks, we thought this an appropriate time to draw your attention to this new and growing resource.

Happy Holidays!

From ICPSR: ICPSR Undergraduate Research Paper Competitions - Papers Due Jan 31!

Dear Colleagues:

I am writing to remind you about the ICPSR Undergraduate Research Paper Competitions - and to remind you that ICPSR is sponsoring two undergraduate research paper competitions for the 2007/2008 academic year. The first competition, sponsored by the general archive at ICPSR, requires a research paper supported by quantitative analysis of any dataset(s) held within the ICPSR archive or any of its special topic archives.

The second competition is sponsored by the Minority Data Resource Center (MDRC). The paper must address issues relevant to underrepresented minorities in the United States including immigrants, and data must be drawn from the MDRC. A separate committee will be formed to judge this competition.

With the exception of the dataset and topic requirements, the competitions are identical in awards, eligibility, and preparation requirements.

The purpose of these competitions is to highlight the best undergraduate student research papers using quantitative data. The objective is to encourage undergraduates to explore the social sciences by means of critical analysis of a topic supported by quantitative analysis of a dataset(s) held within the ICPSR archives and presented in written form.

· Up to three cash prizes will be awarded for each competition. The winner will receive a monetary award of $1,000. Second place receives $750 and third place $500.

· Deadline for submission is January 31, 2008.

Flyers appropriate for sharing with students and faculty as a means to promote the competition and recruit student authors are available on the website. More details can be found at: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/prize/.

What better way than to spend the upcoming holiday break preparing the research paper for submission - please remind your undergraduate students!

New Tools & Resources at ICPSR

ICPSR Authentication – from Anywhere!

Users at your institutions who travel frequently, telecommute or desire to download and work with ICPSR data at the local coffee shop will be delighted! The new ICPSR authentication, launched on July 1, 2007, enables users from member institutions using ICPSR Direct to download ICPSR members-only data from anywhere provided they have validated their MyData accounts recently while on campus.

Minority Data Resource Center

The purpose of the MDRC is to provide data resources for the comparative analysis of issues affecting racial and ethnic minority populations in the United States. We offer streamlined access to existing ICPSR data and to newly acquired studies that are relevant to the study of immigration, place of origin, ancestry, ethnicity, and race in the United States.
http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/MDRC/

Terrorism & Preparedness Data Resource Center

TPDRC archives and distributes data collected by government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and researchers about the nature of intra- (domestic) and international terrorism incidents, organizations, perpetrators, and victims; governmental and nongovernmental responses to terror; and citizens' attitudes towards terrorism.
http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/TPDRC/

International Data Resource Center – Just launched!!

As the international community is drawn closer together through the phenomenon of globalization, access to international data has become critical for scholars and researchers around the world. Finding reliable data sources that reflect international dimensions can be difficult. In an effort to meet the growing demands for international data, ICPSR has created the IDRC, which acts as a clearinghouse for international data housed at ICPSR. http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/IDRC/

ICPSR Announces the Launch of MyClass

ICPSR is pleased to announce the launch of MyClass – a mass registration process where faculty and librarians are able to reserve temporary user accounts for a class or training group who will be working with ICPSR data and resources.

Users of MyClass accounts can download and manipulate data without going through the process of establishing permanent MyData accounts. The benefit is that MyClass enables instructors to focus very little classroom time on the registration process and proceed directly to working with data.

Data access is available immediately after creation of MyClass accounts. After a period of time that instructors specify, the temporary accounts will cease to exist.

To create MyClass accounts, you must have a valid MyData account and your institution must be a member of ICPSR.

MyClass account creation can be found by following this link http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/cgi-bin/bob/myclass or by using the link found on the OR site under the Access section - http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/ICPSR/or/index.html. Additional links to the MyClass page are found on the ICPSR home page within Quick Links or under the Courses & Learning Tools tab within Instructional Resources.

This is the first phase of what is expected to be multiple phases of MyClass development. Future phases of MyClass might provide temporary collaboration space that enables instructors to place ICPSR resources materials and links into predefined folders, has import/export capabilities, and enables users to create, extract, and save online analysis code, variables, and output into the space. We encourage your input on its development.

Please forward this email to any in your campus community that may find this tool useful for their classroom or training purposes.

Enchanced ICPSR Authentication Allows Off-Campus Download

ICPSR is pleased to inform you that it has enhanced its authentication protocol to enable users at ICPSR Direct institutions to download data from off-campus without using a proxy server. Users can now download data from home and when traveling.

How does it work?

In order to download data from off-campus, all you need to do is log on to the ICPSR Web site from a campus computer. Do this once at the beginning of the semester, and your account is flagged for off-campus access for the next six months.

Every time you log on from a campus computer, it revalidates your account for off-campus downloading, so you really only need to visit your campus once a semester.

How do I start?

Just get on a campus workstation and log on to the ICPSR Web site. If you don't have a MyData account already, you'll need to create one. The rest happens automatically.

How do I validate for off-campus access if I'm already off-campus?

If for some reason you were unable to log on before leaving campus for an extended period of time, just contact ICPSR User Support at netmail@icpsr.umich.edu or contact your OR directly. Our staff will verify your status with your OR and flag your account so that you are validated for off-campus downloading.

NEW NCES REPORT! - FRSS 88: Public School Principals Report on Their School Facilities: Fall 2005 (NCES 2007-007)

This report provides information about principals' satisfaction with various environmental factors in their schools, and the extent to which they perceive those factors as interfering with the ability of the school to deliver instruction. The report also describes the extent of the match between the enrollment and the capacity of the school buildings, approaches for coping with overcrowding, the ways in which schools use portable (temporary) buildings and reasons for using them, and the availability of dedicated rooms or facilities for particular subjects (such as science labs or music rooms) and the extent to which these facilities are perceived to support instruction.

Major findings include:
More than half of the principals reported that their school had fewer students than the school’s design capacity: 21 percent said their school was underenrolled by more than 25 percent, and 38 percent said their school was underenrolled by between 6 and 25 percent. The remaining schools included those that had enrollments within 5 percent of their capacity (22 percent) and those that were overenrolled (10 percent were overenrolled by between 6 to 25 percent above their capacity, and 8 percent by more than 25 percent of their design capacity). Those schools that principals described as overcrowded used a variety of approaches to deal with the overcrowding: using portable classrooms (78 percent), converting non-classroom space into classrooms (53 percent), increasing class sizes (44 percent), building new permanent buildings or additions to existing buildings (35 percent), using off-site instructional facilities (5 percent), or other approaches (12 percent).

ICPSR Announces New Online Modules for Social Science Instruction

ICPSR is pleased to offer two new online instructional modules focusing on social science methods for introductory level undergraduate or graduate courses. These modules were authored by the 2006 ICPSR Official Representative Fellows: Lori M. Weber, California State University, Chico (Investigating Community and Social Capital) and Rachael Barlow, Trinity College, Hartford (Exploring Data Through Research Literature).

Investigating Community and Social Capital - http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/training/social-capital/

Investigating Community and Social Capital is an instructional module that teaches data analysis of social capital, as discussed in Robert D. Putnam's Bowling Alone. The site introduces students to quantitative social science research with a case study on social capital. Concepts illustrated include replication, unit of analysis, level of measurement, analysis over time versus cross-sectional analysis, crosstabulation, creating an index, and correlation. This resource is intended to enhance courses in disciplines such as political science, public administration and policy, and sociology.

Exploring Data Through Research Literature - http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/training/explore-lit/

Exploring Data Through Research Literature is an instructional module that uses ICPSR's Bibliography of Data-Related Literature to teach students how to conduct research in the social sciences. Each exercise requires students to locate academic journal articles and consider those articles within an encompassing disciplinary context. EDRL aims to support the traditional collaboration of faculty and librarians by illustrating how to effectively use new technological platforms to teach and conduct scholarship and research.

Announcing the Minority Data Resource Center at ICPSR

The Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) is pleased to announce the formal launch of the Minority Data Resource Center (MDRC) Web site: www.icpsr.umich.edu/MDRC.

The mission of MDRC is to provide data resources for the comparative analysis of issues affecting racial and ethnic minority populations in the United States. We offer streamlined access to existing ICPSR data and to newly acquired studies that are relevant to the study of immigration, place of origin, ancestry, ethnicity, and race in the United States. Access to MDRC data is available to anyone at an ICPSR member university or institution. Many of the studies that comprise the collection have the full product suite of setup and ready-to-files for SAS, SPSS, and Stata, as well as PDF documentation and online analysis capabilities.

MDRC is both a data archive, and a resource for instructors. ICPSR is in the process of developing teaching tools based on the data in the MDRC collection. Others are also invited to develop tools for studies in our collection. MDRC data collections with SDA online analysis are equipped with three additional analysis tools.:

* Sample Characteristics. This tool allows interested users to assess whether the sample population of a study has the desired demographic characteristics.

* Recode Syntax. This tool allows users to not only recode a variable, an option already available through online analysis, but also print out the syntax necessary for that recode so that syntax may be incorporated into users' own statistical syntax files.

* Subset. This tool allows users to create data subsets dynamically for selected subpopulations of the survey.

Feel free to try out these new tools in a sample MDRC study:

ICPSR Study 4404: Capital Punishment in the United States, 1973-2003 (http://webapp.icpsr.umich.edu/cocoon/MDRC-DAS/04404.xml)

ICPSR Summer Workshop on Child Development

2006_workshop_flyer.pdf

ICPSR and its Child Care and Early Education Research Connections project would like to announce a new workshop being offered as part of the 2006 Summer Program. The workshop will feature data that can be used to analyze the development of young children. There is no fee for the workshop and stipends are available to defray travel costs. Please share this course announcement with your campus community. In particular, faculty and graduate students in the following areas might find the course of particular interest: early education, child development, family studies, sociology, social work, psychology and pediatrics.

Understanding the Development of Young Children from an Ecological Perspective

The Child Care and Early Education Research Connections project (www.childcareresearch.org) is offering a four-day workshop, Understanding the Development of Young Children from an Ecological Perspective, to be held August 1-4, 2006 in Ann Arbor, MI as part of the ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research. This workshop is sponsored by Research Connections, with support from the Child Care Bureau, Administration for Children and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It is designed as an introduction to key datasets that can be used to analyze the development of young children in multiple contexts and to assess the impact of early experiences on child outcomes. The workshop will feature the following four datasets:

* Early Childhood Longitudinal Study Birth Cohort (ECLS-B)
* Early Head Start Research and Evaluation Project (EHSRE)
* Head Start Family and Child Experiences Survey (FACES)
* National Center for Educational Development and Learning Multi-State Study of Pre-Kindergarten, 2001-2003

Enrollment in this workshop is limited. Admitted graduate students, post-doctoral scholars, and junior faculty/researchers will also be considered for one of a limited number of monetary awards to help offset travel expenses. Applications are due by Wednesday, May 31, 2006. To learn more about the workshop, as well as to register, please visit: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/training/summer/courses/2006-03-47.html.

ICPSR: New SETUPS site features Instructional module on 2004 election data

A new Web site hosted by ICPSR and sponsored jointly by ICPSR and the American Political Science Association (APSA) has been launched. Voting Behavior: The 2004 Election is a new instructional module that is available at http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/SETUPS/. Authored by Charles Prysby and Carmine Scavo, the module offers students the opportunity to analyze an accessible dataset drawn from the 2004 National Election Study (NES) online. The site also offers a discussion of the background to the 2004 election and voting behavior in national elections, and exercises that explain how to analyze the data and understand the results.

Data on the site are accessible for free to APSA departmental members and ICPSR members. Please see the Web site for more details.

Announcement of ICPSR Prize Competition: Best Instructional Module in the Social Sciences

The Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) announces a prize competition for the best instructional module or instructional innovation in the social sciences and in social science history. The competition is open to faculty and academic staff at member institutions of ICPSR. The winner will receive a cash prize of $500; the winner's institution will receive a credit of $500 toward the next year's ICPSR membership dues; and the winner will be invited to present their work to the 2005 Official Representatives meeting of ICPSR, October 22, 2005.

FAQs about the ICPSR Prize Competition for Best Instructional Module in the Social Sciences:

Question: What is an "instructional module?"

o Answer: Teaching material, primarily for the undergraduate classroom, that has students working with ICPSR datasets, working with data analysis, statistics, and research design and methodology.

o For example, an instructor teaching a course on "Religion in Contemporary America" asks students to work with data from a subset of the General Social Survey (GSS) and construct an index of religiosity and then to the use the index to predict and analyze answers to other clusters of issue questions in the GSS. The instructional module includes the GSS subset data and the assignment sheet given to students.

o For example, an instructor teaching a course in "Political Parties, Elections, and Voting" asks students to work with data from a subset of the American National Election Series (ANES) to track the strength of party identification among women voters over time, by age cohort and by region. The instructional module includes a subset of the Cumulative ANES and the assignment sheet given to students.

o For example, an instructor teaching a survey level course on "U.S. History since 1865" asks students to work with data from the aggregate federal population census between 1870 and 1930 to track the origins, numbers, and proportions of immigrants in the population of selected counties and states. The instructional module includes a subset of ICPSR Study # 0003 and Study # 2896—the aggregate census—and the assignment sheet given to students.

o Additional examples of instructional modules archived at ICPSR's Site for Instructional Materials and Information are available at http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/SIMI/search.html

Question: Who is eligible?

o Answer: Faculty and academic staff at member institutions of ICPSR. A list of the more than 350 member institutions of ICPSR is available at
http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/membership/ors.html

Question: Who is not eligible?

o Answer: Members of the Advisory Committee to the ICPSR Site for Instructional Materials and Innovation (ICPSR-SIMI) and ICPSR Staff.

Question: How will the award be determined?

o Answer: The ICPSR Council has appointed a jury, consisting of Paula Lackie (Carleton College), co-chair, Jim Oberly (University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire), co-chair, Don Davison (Rollins College), Jan Reiff (UCLA), and Ed Nelson (California State University-Fresno) for this competition.

Question: What are the benefits to the winner?

o Answer: The winner will receive a cash award of $500 and an invitation to present the instructional module at the 2005 Official Representatives meeting in Ann Arbor, Michigan, October 22nd.

Question: What are the benefits to the winner's Official Representative to ICPSR?

o Answer: The OR's institution will receive a $500 credit on the next dues payment to ICPSR. The OR will also be honored at the 2005 Official Representatives meeting on October 22nd, along with the winner.

Questions: Deadlines? Notification Date?

o Answer: The competition is open to submissions between April 1, 2005 and August 31, 2005. The jury will convene after September 1, 2005 to review the submissions. The winner and the OR from the winner's institution will be notified by September 15, 2005.

Question: How to submit an instructional module to the competition?

o Answer: Send submissions to Dieter Burrell, ICPSR, P.O. Box 1248, Ann Arbor, MI 48106-1248. Tel: 734-647-5000. Email: dburrell@icpsr.umich.edu

The ICPSR Summer Program 2005

The ICPSR Summer Program web site containing the 2005 Program information/catalog, and application is up and running.

(information from the Summer Program web site)

The ICPSR Summer Program

Since its inception [in 1962], the Consortium has offered the ICPSR Summer Training Program as a complement to its data services. The Summer Program provides a comprehensive, integrated program of studies in research design, statistics, data analysis, and social science methodology. Its instructional environment stresses integration of methods of quantitative analysis within a broader context of substantive social research. Instruction is grounded in interactive, participatory data-analysis utilizing high-end, networked microcomputers. Because of the range of methodological instruction, the opportunity for intensive study, and the quality of instruction and supporting facilities, the Summer Program has become internationally recognized as a preeminent forum for basic and advanced training in the methodologies and technologies of social science research and instruction.

There are two four-week Summer Program sessions, with intensive seminars, special workshops that provide participants with opportunities to examine the impact of various methodologies on specific substantive issues, and workshops that address the practical objectives of providing technical support for computing specialists and data librarians. In addition, research scholars who have made important contributions to the development of social methodology present informal lectures focusing on their most recent research interests.

Participants in each year's Summer Program generally represent about 25 different departments and disciplines from over 200 colleges, universities, and organizations around the world. While sociology, psychology, and political science continue to be represented by the largest number of participants, the increasing number of individuals from across the social and behavioral sciences illustrates the breadth of interest in and impact of the Program.

The Mission of the Summer Program

• To offer instruction for the primary development and "upgrading" of quantitative skills by college and university faculty and by nonacademic research scholars

• To extend the scope and depth of analytic skills for graduate students, college and university faculty, and research scientists from the public sector

• To furnish training for those individuals who expect to become practicing social methodologists

• To provide opportunities for social scientists to study those methodologies that seem to have special bearing on specific substantive issues

• To create an environment that facilitates an exchange of ideas related to the development of methodologies on the frontier of social research

ICPSR acquires National Election Pool (NEP) General Election Exit Polls

ICPSR is pleased to announce the availability of the National Election Pool (NEP) General Election Exit Polls, 2004 (ICPSR 4181) and the National Election Pool Democratic Presidential Preference Primary Exit Polls, 2004 (ICPSR 4183) through FastTrack. The NEP replaced the Voter News Service (VNS) and appointed Edison Media Research and Mitofsky International as the sole provider of exit polls.

ICPSR Revises File Naming System

On January 10, 2005, ICPSR made major changes to the way it identifies data and documentation files. Users who download files should note the following changes:

* All files will include Windows-style suffixes
* Files will have simple text names, rather than acronyms or codes
* Files will include the study number and dataset number (where appropriate) in the file name
* Files will be bundled into study- and dataset-level folders
* File-level information is now recorded in a separate document called the file manifest, instead of within the Readme file.

Our goal is to make the file labels meaningful for our users, and to use a file naming system that does not force users to rename files in order to use them with their preferred statistical packages.

For example, with the old file naming system, if you downloaded datasets 1 and 2 for study 6849, the file names on your desktop looked like this:

+SESSIONID
|
|-- cb6849.all6m.pdf
|
|-- README.6849
|
|-- da6849.icsbkg
|
|-- sp6849.ics6m
|
|-- sa6849.icsbkg
|
|-- sa6849.ics6m
|
|-- ug6849.all.pdf
|
|-- sp6849.icsbkg
|
|-- da6849.ics6m
|
+-- cb6849.allbkg.pdf

With the new system, the file names look like this:

+SESSIONID
|
+-- ICPSR6849
|
|-- 06849-manifest.txt
|
|-- 06849-readme.txt
|
|-- DS0001_ICS_Background_Data
| |
| |-- 06849-0001-Data.txt
| |
| |-- 06849-0001-Codebook.pdf
| |
| |-- 06849-0001-User_guide.pdf
| |
| |-- 06849-0001-SAS_setup.sas
| |
| +-- 06849-0001-SPSS_setup.sps
|
+-- DS0002_ICS_6-Month_Review_Data
|
|-- 06849-0002-Data.txt
|
|-- 06849-0002-Codebook.pdf
|
|-- 06849-0002-User_guide.pdf
|
|-- 06849-0002-SAS_setup.sas
|
+-- 06849-0002-SPSS_setup.sps

As a side note, we are dropping the term "data definition statements" and using the term "setup files," which is more commonly used in the social science community.

For users who make use of our batch downloading function, you may wish to read over our notes on Winzip and "saved files" utility.

ICPSR MyData System

MyData includes a new user registration and authentication system for the ICPSR (Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research) Web site. The system will create a more secure environment for users and will also enable them to sign up for notification services that ICPSR is developing. MyData has features similar to many popular Internet Web sites:

• Uses an email address as a login ID
  
• Requires a password for Web site authentication
  
• Allows users to create an account and set preferences
  
• Allows registered users to reset a forgotten password
  
• Enables users to view prior download history
  

ICPSR has updated the "shopping cart" software that works with the new MyData system. Some of the enhancements you can expect as part of MyData include:

• Faster display of download pages
  
• Faster bundling/saving for later download
  
• Smoother operations for downloading large studies
  

When a user begins to download data via MyData, s/he will be prompted either to log in as a returning user or to create a new account. When a user creates a MyData account, s/he will be asked to complete a brief questionnaire about user preferences.

More information about MyData is on the ICPSR Web site.
