2021  Child Development Supplement Release 1 An early release of the 2021 PSID Child Development Supplement (CDS-2021) is now available. The release includes selected information collected from questionnaires administered to the primary caregivers of eligible children aged 0-17 years who resided in PSID family units at the time of the 2021 Core interview, as well as selected information from the questionnaire administered to eligible children aged 12-17. CDS-2021 main data collection occurred between October 2021 and June 2022. The ZIP file contains 4 SAS datasets and related PDF documents. The CDS-2021 questionnaires are available in the Documentation section of the PSID website. The data files include information on 2592 children and 1578 caregivers. Other data, including additional constructed scales, CDS-2021 sampling weights, remaining questionnaire content areas and time diaries will be available in a future release along with full documentation of the study. This project was supported by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. ZIP FILE    4.83 MB 08/15/22 2021  Transition into Adulthood Supplement Release 2 The TAS-2021 Early Release ZIP file contains a single SAS data set and a copy of the box-and-arrow questionnaire. The SAS file includes all public release data collected except for data about employment. These files are *preliminary* and observations and values may change before final and complete files are released later. The TAS-2021 Early Release records can be merged with data from prior waves of CDS, TAS, and Core PSID using variables describing the family ID, ID68, and person number, PN; these variables are available as TAS21ID68 and TAS21PN in TAS-2021. These TAS-2021 records can be merged with Core 2019 PSID using TAS21YRID19 and TAS21SN19. The project is sponsored by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver  National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. ZIP FILE    4.90 MB 12/12/22 1968-2017  Family Composition File Release 1 The Family Composition File treats children as the unit of analysis. The file describes the relatedness and coresidence status of a child's biological, adoptive, step- and social parents and siblings at every wave from first observation (usually soon after birth) until a child is approximately age 18. The file is intended to describe family structure stability and change over the early life course from the perspective of minor children. The stacked file includes observations on sample children (i.e., those related by birth or adoption to original PSID householders) from all PSID years (1968-2017). This project is sponsored by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. ZIP FILE    14.1 MB 01/22/20 2014  Child Development Supplement - Polygenic Score Files Release 1 Three CDS-2014 early release data files contains 27 polygenic scores separately for three ancestry groups: African, European, and other. Each file also includes three global genetic principal components, an indicator of the assigned ancestry group derived from the genetic principal components, and a race/ethnicity variable constructed using the PSID survey data. The files include a pair of ID variables that identifies CDS-2014 households and each individual’s roster position within their CDS-2014 household. These variables allow users to merge polygenic scores with data from CDS-2014 and PSID using the procedures described in the CDS-2014 User Guide to Genomic Data. The CDS-2014 polygenic files include a total of 2,513 observations. For more information about the CDS-2014 genomic data, please see the User Guide to Genomic Data.
