The genealogical sample design of the PSID means that the parents, grandparents, and siblings of respondents are respondents themselves in some waves of the data. This feature supports unique analyses of the inter- and intra-generational connections and relationships within families. To facilitate creation of data extracts that include information on parents, grandparents, and siblings of respondents, we have designed the tool on this web page.

To understand how the tool works, review the User Help examples.
