Response Rates in National Panel Surveys
It has been well documented that response rates to cross-sectional surveys have declined over the past few decades. It is less clear whether response rates to longitudinal surveys have experienced similar changes over time. This article examines trends in response rates in several major, national longitudinal surveys in the United States and abroad. The authors find that for most of these surveys, the wave-to-wave response rate has not declined. …
Measuring Time Use of Older Couples
Time diaries are a well-established method for providing population estimates of the amount of time and types of activities respondents carry out over the course of a full day. This article focuses on a computer-assisted telephone application developed to collect multiple, same-day 24-hour diaries from older couples who participated in the 2009 Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID). We present selected findings from developmental and field activi…

The Wage Effects of Personal Smoking History
This study explores determinants of the wage penalty borne by smokers. The authors reconstruct individual smoking histories by pooling PSID (Panel Study of Income Dynamics) data for 1986-2001. They find no wage gap between former smokers and those who had never smoked, but statistically significant wage gaps between smokers who would continue smoking and three other groups: those who would later quit smoking, those who had quit smoking already, a…

The Decline in Household Saving and the Wealth Effect
Using a unique set of household level panel data, we estimate the effect of capital gains on saving by asset type, controlling for observable and unobservable household specific fixed effects. The results suggest that the decline in the personal saving rate since 1984 is largely due to the significant capital gains in corporate equities experienced over this period. Over five-year periods, the effect of capital gains in corporate equities on savi…
The Panel Study of Income Dynamics Online
This article discusses recent efforts by staff members associated with the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) to extend access to PSID files in the context of instruction using the World Wide Web and the role that PSID’s online Data Center and online tutorials can play in helping the economics discipline fulfill its educational objectives
An Assessment of Alternative Measures of Time Use
Although time use has received much attention by social scientists as an index of resource allocation and social relations across groups, only a few studies have carefully assessed the relative strengths and weaknesses of the existing methods of measuring time use: time diary (TD), stylized (S) respondent report, and experiential sampling method (ESM). We note the varying degree of biases that arise in part from the extent of detail in the inform…
Event History Calendars and Question List Surveys
The research reported in this article provides the first direct experimental comparison between Event History Calendar (EHC; N=309; 84.4 percent response rate) and standardized state-of-the-art question list (Q-list; N=307; 84.1 percent response rate) interviewing methodologies. Respondents and 20 interviewers were randomly assigned to EHC and Q-list interviews that were conducted via telephone in the spring of 1998. All interviews asked for retr…

On the Rate of Return to Schooling Quality
Empirical evaluation of the effect of school quality, or type and amount of resources per student, on adult earnings requires a conceptual framework. A model of the returns to schooling in a simple human capital growth context is extended to illustrate how factors such as consumption benefits of students, parental concern over equity between siblings, and use of schools to facilitate parental labor supply can alter the apparent return to school q…
Data Watch
By collecting annual economic and demographic information from a large and representative sample of U.S. households for over a quarter century, the Panel Study of Income Dynamics has compiled a remarkably useful set of microdata. This article describes the PSID and how its unique longitudinal and, in some cases, intergenerational features have been used for studies of intertemporal models of labor supply; wages, employment, and job tenure; consum…
Links between Early Childhood Programs and Maternal Employment in Three Countries
Early childhood programs are usually viewed as a service that promotes children's development. In addition, these programs often serve a broader purpose of enabling mothers with young children to join the paid labor force. Therefore, government policies relating to the provision and use of child care programs reflect such economic and social factors as the demand for women workers in the labor market; expectations of the relationship among govern…

The Cost of Financing Automobile Purchases
HE relationship of finance charges to T terms of consumer installment contracts (such as loan size and maturity) and to regional variables has been well established in the literature [8] [12]. Our study demonstrates the importance of the characteristics of the borrower, particularly his overall wealth position, in determining the cost of credit. Although this study examines the determinants of automobile finance rates, the general results should …

The Effects of Values on Pecuniary Behavior
This paper tests the hypothesis that attitudes toward work-namely professional and intellectual values-can be considered to measure compensation for monetary losses. Data on earnings, the Rosenberg attitudes toward work scale, and other conditions of employment for U. S. professional and technical workers in thirteen fields of specialization are used. Comparisons are made in terms of the expectation that, as a function of value patterns, academic…
