Version 01 Codebook ------------------- CODEBOOK VARIABLE DOCUMENTATION 1994 POST-ELECTION STUDY (1994.TN) 1994 NES VARIABLE ENTRIES This file should be opened in fixed font, 10 pitch or smaller. Codebook introductory material and appendix material are in separate files. ---------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE ON VARIABLE NAMING: The variable name references used in NES Study codebooks do not include the "V" prefix found in all variable names used within the released SAS and SPSS data definition files (.sas and .sps files). For example, "VAR 920001" and "VAR VERSION" in Study codebooks refer to V920001 and VVERSION in the study data definition files. VARIABLE 'NUMBERING': 'Numbered' variables in NES timeseries datasets and in Pilot datasets (except the 1998 Pilot) comply with the following format: 2-digit year prefix + 4 digits + [opt] 1-char suffix. Examples: 1978 Post variable V780002; 1983 Pilot variable V832101. Note that for datasets including data from multiple studies, the 2-digit year prefix corresponds to the appropriate study year to which the variable is associated; for example, the 1983 Pilot dataset also includes 1982 timeseries variables, for which the 2-digit prefix is 82. Non-time-series studies other than Pilots use 2-character mnemonic prefixes, for example variable VPS0048 in the 1988-1990-1992 Pooled Senate Study dataset. SPECIAL NOTE ON COLUMN LOCATIONS: Some numeric variables use coding schemes that allow for code values having a varying number of digits. In such instances, the number of columns corresponding to the variable in the data file [.dat file] and in the column specifications will be the width of the maximum value occurring in the actual data, rather than the maximum width allowable by the coding scheme. For example, if codes 01-12 are allowed for a numeric variable but all values in the data are less than 10, then the number of columns corresponding to the variable within the ASCII data file will be 1. ============================== VAR VERSION NAME-NES VERSION NUMBER COLUMNS 1 - 2 NUMERIC NO MISSING DATA CODES NES VERSION NUMBER .................. ============================== VAR DSETNO NAME-NES DATASET NUMBER COLUMNS 3 - 9 CHARACTER NO MISSING DATA CODES NES DATASET NUMBER ..................

It is post-stratified to the July 1993 Census population projections for 24 age, by sex by Census region categories (Current Population Reports, P25-1111, Table 4). This is a 6 digit variable with a coded decimal point and 4 actual This weight is particularly appropriate for descriptive statistics. See also the "Construction of Analysis Weights" in the Sample Design section of the Appendix to the codebook for the 1994 Post-election Survey. ============================== VAR 940005 94PO: PANEL ONLY WEIGHT COLUMNS 26 - 31 NUMERIC DEC 4 NOMISSING DATA CODES PANEL ONLY WEIGHT ----------------- This weight is to be used for analyses which use only the 759 panel cases; the cross-section cases have a value of "0" in this field. The weight compensates for the unequal probabilities of selection for respondents in different size households, and for differential nonresponse across geographic sample design categories. It is post-stratified to the July 1993 Census population projections for 24 age, by sex by Census region categories (Current Population Reports, P25-1111, Table 4). This weight is centered with a mean of 1.0. This is a 6 digit variable with a coded decimal point and 4 actual ============================== VAR 940006 94PO: TIME SERIES WEIGHT COLUMNS 32 - 37 NUMERIC DEC 4 NOMISSING DATA CODES TIME SERIES WEIGHT ------------------ This weight should be used in analyses in which the 1994 Panel is compared to earlier unweighted National Election Studies data collections. Variable 6 corrects for panel attrition and for the aging of the panel respondents. Details on the construction of this variable are provided in the Sample Design section of the Appendix to the codebook for the 1994 Post-election Survey. This weight is centered with a mean of 1.0. This is a 6 digit variable with a coded decimal point and 4 actual in this variable. ============================== VAR 940006A 94PO: TIME SERIES WEIGHT COLUMNS 38 - 43 NUMERIC DEC 4 NOMISSING DATA CODES ADDITONAL TIME SERIES WEIGHT - POST-STRATIFIED ---------------------------------------------- This weight was created because V940006 did not correct for an underrepresentation in study data of younger and less-educated respondents. V960006A is constructed to post-stratify the NES data to match the Current Population Study (CPS) estimate of the distribution of age group by education level. See "NEW WEIGHTS FOR THE 1996 STUDY" in the introductory portion of this codebook and Appendix document "Post-Stratified Cross-Sectional Analysis Weights the 1992, 1994 and 1996 NES data." This weight should be used in analyses in which the 1994 Panel is compared to earlier unweighted National Election Studies data collections. This weight is centered with a mean of 1.0. This is a 6- digit variable with a coded decimal point and 4 actual ============================== VAR 940007 94PO: FORM YELLOW/BLUE COLUMNS 44 - 44 NUMERIC NOMISSING DATA CODES FORM ---- The original form assignment is recorded here. The only function of this variable is to assign cases to the ballot card experiment. In 1994 respondents were presented alternative versions of the ballot card identical in content, but different in design. Please see Appendix V, Note 4 for sample ballots of each design. Users wishing to employ Form in their analysis should use V611 as a filter to eliminate either cases administered over the phone or cases where it is unclear which form was used. 890 1. YELLOW 905 2.

(An eligible adult is a U.S. citizen who is 18 years of age or older by Election Day.) The Selection Table appears on the Coversheet below the Household Listing. After a complete listing of the HH is taken, each eligible adult is assigned a "Number" based on the criteria of gender and age [beginning with the oldest male as number 1, males are numbered by increments of 1 according to descending age; females are numbered by descending age starting with the number one higher than that assigned to the youngest male]. The interviewer then uses the Selection Table to determine the "Number" of the eligible adult to be interviewed. The Selection Table itself consists of 2 parallel columns. In the first column the interviewer circles the total number of eligible adults in the household; in the second column (same row) is identified the "Number" of the person who will be the respondent. There are 8 different Selection Tables used and they are randomly assigned. [Note that although only 8 tables are used, there are 12 codes in this variable because the 8 tables are used in cycles of 12; this procedure is used to equalize the probability of selection for each eligible adult].

Coded according to the 1990 Census. The major objective of the Census Bureau in delineating urbanized areas is to provide a better separation of urban and rural population in the vicinity of large cities. An urbanized area consists of a central city or cities, and surrounding closely settled territory ("urban fringe"). Size of Place codes 21 and 41 include areas that are in the "urban fringe" but are not Census Places. Again, it should be noted that Panel respondents may have moved from place of first interview.

In these cases, the Size of Place Code for any SSUs (segments) within such areas are coded in the "40s" rather than in the "50s" as shown below. This occurred in El Dorado county, CA (the major part of the El Dorado/Alpine Co, CA PSU #82) which is now a part of the Sacramento, CA, MSA, and also for one SSU (segment) in the Gardner, MA (PSU #64) which is now a part of the Worcester, MA, MSA. ============================== VAR 940062 94PO: TRACT ED INDICATOR COLUMNS 157 - 157 NUMERIC NOMISSING DATA CODES 1980 CENSUS TRACT/ED FLAG ------------------------- For Panel respondents who moved since the 1992 Pre-election study, the data corresponding to their original sampling address was coded here. 1504 1.

These SMSA codes were obtained from the Federal Information Processing Standard Publication, U.S. Department of Commerce, National Bureau of Standards. The 1980 SMSA Codes have for the most part been carried over by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to the 1990 Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA's). However, some MSA names and definitions have been modified by OMB to reflect shifts in population and changes in characteristics of areas. In the 1994 NES data, the 1980 SMSA codes have been retained for all parts of the MSA primary sampling units (PSU's). It should be remembered that, particularly in the case of PMSAs (which are part of consolidated areas (or CMSAs) some counties or county parts may in 1990 be defined by OMB as part of a different PMSA (a good example is Chicago, IL). It was felt that for NES analysis, to retain the older SMSA codes, which correspond to the 1980 sampling frame used for this sample, was most appropriate for all MSA or PMSA areas. In those areas designated "Non-SMSA" in our sample frame ("Non-MSA" on most of our documentation for 1992 NES), there are two PSUs (#464, Gardner, MA, and #482, El Dorado/Alpine, CA) in which some of the 1980 rural area has in 1990 met the requirements for inclusion in an MSA; in these cases the size of place code was modified to reflect this and the 1990 MSA number is indicated for the affected segments (segment 009 in Gardner, MA, used in both the 1994 cross-section and the 1994 panel, where Barre town--not associated with any SMSA in 1980--is now a part of the 1990 Worcester, MA, MSA, and all of the 1994 NES segments in El Dorado/Alpine, CA,-- i.e., cross-section segments 002, 004, 005, 007, 009 and 012 and panel segment 007 -- all in El Dorado county which is part of the 1990 Sacramento, CA, MSA.) 19 0360.
