- catalog abstract "American Voting Behavior is an instructional package consisting of a student workbook, a teacher's manual, and four datasets. One dataset contains 80 variables from eight Center for Political Studies' presidential election studies from 1952 to 1972. A second consists of data on 68 variables from the Center for Political Studies' American National Election Study, 1980, the Pre- Post Election File. The third dataset has data for 46 variables from the 1976 cross-section, and the fourth has 78 variables from the 1972-1974-1976 American National Election Panel file. The datasets were designed to be both substantively and analytically interesting, students are forced continually to make choices and judgments about which variables to use and how to combine code categories. Beyond this, the exercises serve a more complex purpose: to help the student gain a better understanding of the existing scholarly literature by going through steps similar to those of the original analysts. In some instances, the students can readily appreciate how close their work is to the analysis in assigned reading. The success of this purpose depends on the instructor using exercises, the existing ones or revisions, that parallel the substantive focus of the reading and lectures. The student is taken no further than the analysis of straightforward variables in percentagized tables with and without controls, and is introduced to epsilon, the percentage difference measure based on 2 X 2 tables, but offered no elaborate discussion of measures of association.".

- catalog description "The student manual is available in two forms from ICPSR. Student copies may be ordered by bookstores or departments. An alternative form of the manual is an unbound, reproduceable copy which may be duplicated by an instructor for class use or serve as the basis for revision. Copyright restrictions have been waived for individuals at ICPSR institutions. The student manual offers six structured exercises to introduce the basic analytic techniques necessary for coping with survey data in the expectation that students will then move on to their own topics.".
