- catalog abstract "The Center's data holdings include studies with both female and male subjects from a wide range of ages and several racial, ethnic, and socio-economic class groups. These data were collected using a variety of methods, including longitudinal, cross-sectional, survey, case study, and experimental designs. The studies originate in many academic disciplines: psychology, psychiatry, sociology, education, political science, anthropology, and economics. Topics of special concern to women are centrally represented in the Center's collecting priorities. These topics include various aspects of work and careers, education, physical and mental health, political participation, family life, widowhood, and aging.
