- catalog abstract "The National Longitudinal Study is an ongoing study of the persons who were high school seniors in 1972. Initial interviews were conducted with persons selected from a stratified sample of all private, public, and parochial high schools. Schools in low income areas and those with high black enrollments were oversampled. A total of 1,318 schools were selected, and eighteen students within each school were chosen. Over 22,000 seniors participated in the first wave. Four follow-up waves have been conducted: 1973, 1974, 1976, and 1979. These follow-ups were conducted using a combination of mail surveys and personal and telephone interviews. Intensive tracing activities have yielded high response rates: 83 percent of the 1972 sample and 85 percent of the first follow-up sample participated in the 1979 wave. A fifth follow-up is planned for 1985. The purpose of the study is to follow the educational and occupational careers of young people in relation to high school and family backgrounds. The files include data on each student covering ability, socioeconomic status, home background, community environment, ethnicity, significant others, current activity at time of survey, educational attainment, school experiences, school performance, work status, work performance and satisfaction, goal orientatons, marriage and the family, and military experience. Seven files are available. The data from all five of the student questionnaires are available in a single file. The school file contains information obtained from the respondent's high schools and high school counselors. The 1972 school questionnaire gathered information on school organization and enrollment, course offerings, special services and programs, library and other resources, time scheduling, and grading systems. A short counselor questionnaire gathered data on work loads, counseling practices and facilities, experience with student financial aid programs, age, ethnicity, training and experience. There are five supplementary files. A student codebook file is essentially a variable list with tape locations that can be used to prepare control cards. A similar school codebook is available. The School District Census file contains 1970 census data tabulated by school district boundaries. A FICE code file and a CEEB Institutional Data Base file can be used together with the student file to supply contextual information about respondents' colleges. The latter file contains 84 variables taken from four sources: the 1973-1974 Higher Education Directory, the 1973-1974 Tripartite Application Data File, the 1972-1973 HEGIS Financy survey and the 1972 ACE Institutional Characteristics file. These data can be linked to the student file using the FICE codes. Complete documentation for all files is available on microfiche.".
