The Annual Social and Economic Supplement (ASEC) is the most widely used type of Current Population Survey (CPS) data, but it is cumbersome to use the ASEC as part of a longitudinal CPS panel, especially linking to non-March months. In this paper, we detail the challenges associated with linking the ASEC to monthly CPS data, outline the creation of an identifier that links the ASEC and the March Basic Monthly data from 1989 through 2017, and provide substantive examples that illustrate the value of combining the ASEC with monthly data. The variable, MARBASECID, which we created to link ASEC and March monthly CPS data, represents a significant contribution to social and economic data infrastructure, saving individual researchers from having to duplicate the effort required to create linkages between ASEC and monthly CPS data.

年度社会和经济补编(ASEC)是当前人口调查(CPS)数据中使用最广泛的类型,但将 ASEC 作为纵向 CPS 面板的一部分使用非常麻烦,尤其是与非 3 月月份的链接。在本文中,我们将详细介绍将 ASEC 与 CPS 月度数据联系起来所面临的挑战,概述如何创建一个标识符,将 ASEC 与 1989 年至 2017 年的三月基本月度数据联系起来,并提供实例说明将 ASEC 与月度数据结合起来的价值。我们创建的 MARBASECID 变量可将 ASEC 与 3 月份的 CPS 月度数据联系起来,它是对社会和经济数据基础设施的重大贡献,使研究人员不必重复创建 ASEC 与 CPS 月度数据之间的联系。

Imputing consumption from Norwegian income and wealth registry data 根据挪威收入和财富登记数据推算消费
Q3 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2017-01-01 DOI: 10.3233/JEM-170438

Data on consumption expenditure of the household is essential in a wide array of economic research. This includes both topics in micro as well as macroeconomics. However, obtaining a consistent and precise measure of household consumption has proven notoriously difficult. This paper documents a method for computing a longitudinal consumption measure for Norwegian households from administrative records of income and wealth. Expenditure surveys tend to suffer from limited sample sizes and underrepresentation of high-income households. Administrative data does not have such limitations and offers a much larger sample with better coverage of all household types. This is particularly useful for improving the measurement of heterogeneity in consumption behavior.
关于家庭消费支出的数据在广泛的经济研究中是必不可少的。这包括微观和宏观经济学的主题。然而,获得一致而精确的家庭消费数据是出了名的困难。本文记录了一种从收入和财富的行政记录中计算挪威家庭纵向消费度量的方法。支出调查往往受到样本量有限和高收入家庭代表性不足的影响。行政数据没有这种限制,提供的样本大得多,更好地覆盖了所有家庭类型。这对于改进对消费行为异质性的测量尤其有用。

In demographic datasets, researchers frequently want to identify how members of a household are related. In this paper, we develop a new method of estimating parental and spousal relationships using data on fertility patterns and family interrelationships. The improved method includes cohabiting and same-sex couples and is comparable across all modern US IPUMS data projects. A detailed variable indicates how the relationship was inferred and the level of ambiguity around that inference. The new IPUMS family interrelationship variables are very accurate, matching self-reported spouse/partner for 99.99% and parent for over 99.00% of respondents. Among those identified as same-sex couples, we match self-reported spouse/partner for 100% of respondents, 87.57% of whom self-identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual. We further demonstrate that the new family interrelationship variables closely track temporal variation in teenage fertility.

在人口统计数据集中,研究人员经常想要确定家庭成员之间的关系。本文提出了一种利用生育模式和家庭相互关系的数据来估计父母和配偶关系的新方法。改进后的方法包括同居和同性伴侣,并且在所有现代美国IPUMS数据项目中具有可比性。一个详细的变量表明关系是如何推断的,以及围绕该推断的模糊程度。新的IPUMS家庭相互关系变量非常准确,99.99%的受访者与自我报告的配偶/伴侣相匹配,99.00%以上的受访者与父母相匹配。在那些被认定为同性伴侣的受访者中,我们为100%的受访者匹配了自我报告的配偶/伴侣,其中87.57%的受访者自我认定为女同性恋、男同性恋或双性恋。我们进一步证明,新的家庭相互关系变量密切跟踪青少年生育的时间变化。

This study leverages a randomized experimental design of a mixed-mode mail- and web-based survey to examine mode effects separately from sample selectivity issues. Using data from the Cognitive Economics Study, which contains some sensitive financial questions, we analyze two sets of questions: fixed-choice questions posed nearly identically across mode, and dollar-value questions that exploit features available only on web mode. Focusing on differences in item nonresponse and response distributions, our results indicate that, in contrast to mail mode, web mode surveys display lower item nonresponse for all questions. While respondents appear to prefer providing financial information in ranges, use of reminder screens on the web version yields greater use of exact values without large sacrifices in item response. Still, response distributions for all questions are similar across mode, suggesting that data on sensitive financial questions collected from the two modes can be pooled.

本研究利用邮寄和网络混合模式调查的随机实验设计,将模式效应与样本选择性问题分开进行研究。认知经济学研究包含一些敏感的金融问题,我们利用认知经济学研究的数据分析了两组问题:在不同模式下几乎相同的固定选择题,以及利用只有网络模式才有的功能的美元价值问题。我们将重点放在项目无响应和响应分布的差异上,结果表明,与邮寄模式相比,网络模式调查在所有问题上的项目无响应率都较低。虽然受访者似乎更喜欢以范围形式提供财务信息,但在网络版上使用提醒屏幕可以更多地使用精确值,而不会对项目响应造成很大影响。尽管如此,所有问题的回答分布在不同模式下都很相似,这表明从两种模式下收集到的敏感财务问题的数据可以进行汇总。

Combining survey and administrative data in Italian business surveys 结合意大利商业调查中的调查和行政数据
Q3 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2016-01-01 DOI: 10.3233/JEM-150420

The main Italian enterprise surveys are shifting from a simple traditional data collection approach to a more complex one. This new approach is based on survey database management involving the recasting of many data sources (including administrative data). The reasons for utilising administrative data are: improved timeliness, increased precision and a reduction in the statistical burden. In our paper we focus on the Italian SCI survey (Sistema dei Conti delle Imprese, i.e., Businesses accounts survey). A number of innovations have been introduced into this survey over the last few years and remain ongoing. Since 2005, final economic estimates are obtained combining various data sources, primarily administrative data. The integration procedure involves a number of methodological solutions. In this paper we deal with the problem of non-response, particularly unit non-response. At first methodological issues, research and applicative trends in the NSI (National Statistical Institute) are briefly reviewed. Afterwards alternative means of estimating business data using administrative records and integrating sources are applied to the SCI survey data. The integration procedure is presented and its impact on the improvement of final data quality is verified.
意大利主要的企业调查正在从简单的传统数据收集方式转向更为复杂的方式。这种新方法基于调查数据库管理,涉及许多数据源(包括管理数据)的重铸。利用行政数据的理由是:提高时效性、提高准确性和减少统计负担。在我们的论文中,我们关注意大利SCI调查(Sistema dei Conti delle impression,即企业账户调查)。在过去的几年里,许多创新被引入到这项调查中,并仍在进行中。自2005年以来,最终的经济估计是结合各种数据来源获得的,主要是行政数据。集成过程涉及许多方法上的解决方案。本文主要研究无响应问题,特别是单元无响应问题。首先简要回顾了国家统计研究所的方法问题、研究和应用趋势。随后,利用行政记录和综合资源估算商业数据的替代方法被应用于SCI调查数据。给出了集成过程,并验证了其对提高最终数据质量的影响。

Household wealth and its distribution are topics of broad public debate and increasing scholarly interest. We compare the relative strength of two of the main data sources used in research on the wealth holdings of U.S. households, the Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF) and the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID), by providing a description and explanation of differences in the level and distribution of wealth captured in these two surveys. We identify the factors that account for differences in average net worth but also show that estimates of net worth are similar throughout most of the distribution. Median net worth in the SCF is 6% higher than in the PSID and the largest differences between the two surveys are concentrated in the 1-2 percent wealthiest households, leading to a different view of wealth concentration at the very top but similar results for wealth inequality across most of the distribution.

家庭财富及其分配是公众广泛讨论的话题,也引起了越来越多的学术兴趣。我们比较了美国家庭财富持有研究中使用的两个主要数据来源的相对强度,消费者财务调查(SCF)和收入动态小组研究(PSID),通过描述和解释这两个调查中捕获的财富水平和分配的差异。我们确定了导致平均净资产差异的因素,但也表明,在大多数分布中,对净资产的估计是相似的。SCF的净资产中位数比PSID高6%,两项调查之间的最大差异集中在最富有的1- 2%的家庭中,这导致了对最顶层财富集中的不同看法,但对大多数分布的财富不平等的结果相似。

The linking of detailed information on health, medical care, and insurance to economic outcomes is a central feature of data collection efforts in the economics of aging. In this paper, I use newly available linked panel data from a unique supplement to the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) known as the Prescription Drug Study (PDS) to examine the impact of insurance coverage on prescription drug utilization for those 65 and older. Fixed-effect estimates suggest that gaining coverage resulted in a 15% increase in utilization. Gaining coverage also was associated with a 20-50% reduction in the incidence of cost-related non-adherence. However, even among the uninsured, only a relatively small proportion of drugs (12%) were associated with episodes of cost-related non-adherence.
将健康、医疗保健和保险的详细信息与经济结果联系起来,是老龄化经济学中数据收集工作的一个核心特征。在本文中,我使用来自健康与退休研究(HRS)的独特补充的最新可用链接面板数据,即处方药研究(PDS),以检查保险覆盖范围对65岁及以上老年人处方药使用的影响。固定效应估计表明,增加覆盖可使利用率提高15%。获得覆盖率还与降低20-50%与费用相关的不依从发生率相关。然而,即使在没有保险的人群中,也只有相对较小比例的药物(12%)与费用相关的不遵守事件有关。

Measuring poverty using the Supplemental Poverty Measure in the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, 1998 to 2010 1998年至2010年收入动态小组研究中使用补充贫困指标衡量贫困

The Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM) was recently introduced by the U.S. Census Bureau as an alternative measure of poverty that addresses many shortcomings of the official poverty measure (OPM) to better reflect the resources households have available to meet their basic needs. The Census SPM is available only in the Current Population Survey (CPS). This paper describes a method for constructing SPM poverty estimates in the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID), for the biennial years 1998 through 2010. A public-use dataset of individual-level SPM status produced in this analysis will be available for download on the PSID website. Annual SPM poverty estimates from the PSID are presented for the years 1998, 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2008, and 2010 and compared to SPM estimates for the same years derived from CPS data by the Census Bureau and independent researchers. We find that SPM poverty rates in the PSID are somewhat lower than those found in the CPS, though trends over time and impact of specific SPM components are similar across the two datasets.
美国人口普查局最近推出了补充贫困衡量标准(SPM),作为一种替代贫困衡量标准,它解决了官方贫困衡量标准(OPM)的许多缺陷,更好地反映了家庭满足基本需求的可用资源。人口普查SPM仅在当前人口调查(CPS)中可用。本文描述了一种在收入动态面板研究(PSID)中构建SPM贫困估计的方法,该方法适用于1998年至2010年的两年期。在此分析中产生的个人层面SPM状态的公共使用数据集将可在PSID网站上下载。PSID提供了1998年、2000年、2002年、2004年、2006年、2008年和2010年的年度SPM贫困估计,并与人口普查局和独立研究人员根据CPS数据得出的同年SPM估计进行了比较。我们发现PSID的SPM贫困率略低于CPS的贫困率,尽管两个数据集的特定SPM成分的趋势和影响相似。

Consumption inequality in the Great Recession 大衰退时期的消费不平等
Q3 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2016-01-01 DOI: 10.3233/JEM-160424
Hyojung Lee, Gary D. Painter
While the majority of inequality research focuses on income metrics to measure changes in inequality, a growing number of scholars argue that consumption is a better metric for measuring disparities in an individual's contemporaneous well-being. This study adds to a growing literature on consumption inequality by testing how consumption inequality varies across consumption categories and changes overtime. We find that overall consumption inequality declined since the mid-2000s before a recent uptick, which can be mostly explained by decreasing gaps in transportation expenditures on vehicle purchases. At the same time, the recent decline in overall consumption inequality disguises growing inequalities in health and education expenditures (human capital investments). The rising inequality in human capital investments is of particular concern as it can predict future increases in inequality.
虽然大多数不平等研究都集中在收入指标上,以衡量不平等的变化,但越来越多的学者认为,消费是衡量个人同期福祉差异的更好指标。这项研究通过测试消费不平等在不同消费类别之间的变化以及随时间的变化,为越来越多的关于消费不平等的文献增加了新的内容。我们发现,自2000年代中期以来,整体消费不平等程度有所下降,最近有所上升,这主要可以通过车辆购买的运输支出差距缩小来解释。与此同时,最近总体消费不平等的下降掩盖了卫生和教育支出(人力资本投资)方面日益严重的不平等。人力资本投资不平等的加剧尤其令人担忧,因为它可以预测未来不平等的加剧。

This study adds to a growing literature on consumption inequality by testing how consumption inequality varies across consumption categories and changes overtime. We find that overall consumption inequality declined since the mid-2000s before a recent uptick, which can be mostly explained by decreasing gaps in transportation expenditures on vehicle purchases. At the same time, the recent decline in overall consumption inequality disguises growing inequalities in health and education expenditures (human capital investments).

The U.S. Census Bureau and the Bureau of Labor Statistics recently developed a substantially improved measure of poverty, the Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM). The SPM has only been released since 2009, and prior efforts by researchers to construct a historical SPM time series have not taken into account an essential element of the new measure - geographical differences in the cost of living - which is necessary for accurately describing poverty trends in important demographic and regional subgroups. We build the first historical SPM time series from 1967-2014 that adjusts poverty thresholds for cost of living. We do so bringing together a constellation of data sources - the Current Population Survey, the Decennial Census, the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Fair Market Rents, and others. We find that geographically adjusting thresholds increases poverty rates in metro areas, the Western states, and among Latinos, but decreases poverty rates in non-metro areas and in the South. The geographic adjustment of poverty thresholds is an impactful component of the SPM.
美国人口普查局和劳工统计局最近制定了一项大幅度改进的贫困衡量标准,即补充贫困衡量标准(SPM)。SPM是2009年才发布的,之前研究人员构建历史SPM时间序列的努力没有考虑到新测量方法的一个基本要素——生活成本的地理差异——这对于准确描述重要人口和区域子群体的贫困趋势是必要的。我们建立了从1967年到2014年的第一个历史SPM时间序列,该序列根据生活成本调整了贫困线。我们汇集了大量的数据来源——当前人口调查、十年一次的人口普查、住房和城市发展部的公平市场租金等。我们发现,地理上调整阈值会增加都市区、西部各州和拉美裔的贫困率,但会降低非都市区和南部的贫困率。贫困线的地理调整是SPM的一个有影响力的组成部分。
