ABSTRACT

Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) 1987 Panel, Wave 1 Rectangular Core Microdata Fiie [machine-readable data file] / conducted by the U.S Bureau of the Census. -Washington: The Bureau [producer and distributor], 1989.

Type of File:

Microdata; unit of observation is an individual.

Universe Description:

The universe is the resident population of the United States, but excluding persons living in institutions and military barracks.

Subject-Matter Description:

The file contains basic demographic and social charactenstrcs data for each member of the household. These include age, sex, race (White: Black; American Indian. Eskrmo, and Aleut; Asian or Pacific Islander; and Other), ethnic origin (23 categories including 7 Spanish ongrn categories), marital status, household relationship. education, and veteran status. Limited data are provrded on housing unit characteristics such as units in structure, tenure, access, and complete kitchen facilities. Core questions, which are repeated at each interview, cover labor force activity, types and amounts of income, and participation in various cash and noncash benefit programs for each month of the four-month reference period. Data for employed persons include number of hours and weeks worked, earnings. and weeks without a job. Nonworkers are classified as unemployed or not in the labor force. In addition to income data associated with labor force activity, data include neatly 50 other types of income. Core data also cover post secondary school attendance, public or subsidized rental housing, low-income energy assistance, and school breakfast and lunch participation.

The sample consists of 4 rotation groups, each intervtewed In a drfferent month from February to May 1987 For each group the reference period for reporting labor force actlvlty and income is the four calendar months preceding the interview month.

SIPP is a longitudinal survey where each sampled household and each descendent household is reintervrewed at I-month intervals for 7 interviews or ‘waves.’ Ths file contains the results of the first interview. Unique codes are included on each record to allow IInkIng together the same persons with the

. preceding and subsequent waves.

Geographic Coverage:

United States. Codes are included for 41 individual States and the District of Columbia, although the sample was not designed to produce State estimates. Areas in the SIPP sample in nine other States are identified in three groups for confidentiality reasons. The file identifies a subsample of metropolitan residents, along with codes for selected metropolitan statrstical areas (MSA’s) and consolidated metropolitan statistical areas (CMSA’s).

FILE INFORMATION

Geographic Coverage

State codes are shown except for nine States which are identified in three groups. A subsample of metropolitan residents is identified along with codes for selected metropolitan statistical areas (MSA’s) and consolidated metropolitan statistical areas (CMSA’s). The sample was not designed to produce State or MSA/CMSA level estimates. State codes are primarily useful in relating a respondent’s recipiency of benefits to thresholds which may vary from State to State. MSA/CMSA codes may be used in relating respondent characteristics with contextual variables.

Identification Number System

The SIPP identification scheme is designed to uniquely identify individuals in each wave, provide a means of linking the same individuals over time, and group individuals into households and families over time. The various components of the identification scheme are listed below:

Sample Unit Identification Number Address ID Entry Address ID Person Number

The sample unit identification number was created by scrambling together the PSU, segment, and serial numbers used for Census Bureau administrative purposes. This identifier is constructed the same way on each wave regardless of moves, to enable matching from wave to wave.

The two-digit address ID code identifies each household associated with the same sample unit identification number. The first digit of the address ID code indicates the wave in which that address was first assigned for interview. The second digit sequentially numbers multiple households that have the same serial number. The Wave 1 address ID code is 11 for all sample addresses. As SIPP sample persons move to new addresses, new address ID codes are assigned. Any new address to which sample unit members moved during Wave 4 is numbered in the 40’s.

The person ID is a five-digit number consisting of the twodigit entry address ID and a three-digit person number. Person numbers 101, 102, etc., are assigned in Wave 1; 201, 202. etc., are assigned to persons added to the roster in Wave 2. and so forth. This five-digit number IS not changed or updated, regardless of moves.

The sampling unit serial number and address ID code uniquely identifies each household in any given * wave. The sampling unit serial number can link all households in subsequent waves back to the original

Wave 1 household.

Topcoding of income Variables

To protect against the possibility that a user might recognize the identity of a SIPP respondent with very high income, income from every source is “topcoded” so that no individual income amounts above $100.000 are revealed. While the data dictionary indicates a topcode of 83,332 for monthly income, this topcode will rarely be used. In most cases the monthly income is shown as an individual dollar amount of S8,333. with 93,333 actually representing “$8,333 or more.” (The SlOO,OOO annual income topcode is 88,333 multiplied by 12 months). Individual monthly amounts above 88,333 may occasionally be shown if the respondent’s income varied considerably from month to month, as long as the average does not exceed $8,333. For example, if a respondents’ income from a single job were concentrated in only one of the four reference months, a figure as high as S33,332 could be shown. (Income from interest or property have lower topcodes).

.-

SIPP 1987 WAVE 1 RECTANGULAR

Summary income figures on the person, family, and household records are simple sums of the components shown on the file after topcoding, and are not independently topcoded. Thus, a person with high income from several sources (jobs, businessesoroperty) could have aggregate monthly income well over the topcode for each source. Families and households with a number of high income members could theoretically have aggregate income shown well over $100,000. through well below the $1.5 million shown as the highest allowable value in the data dictionary.

The user is cautioned against trying lo make much use of the occasional monthly figures above 38.333, except in calculating aggregates or observing patterns across the 4-month period for a single Individual. family, or household. Those units with higher monthly amounts shown are a biased sample of high income units, more likely to include units wtih income from multiple sources than other units with equally high aggregate income which comes from a single source.

GLOSSARY OF SELECTED TERMS

Population coverage. The estimates are restricted to the civilian noninstitutional population of the 50 States and members of the Armed Forces living off post or with their families on post.

Farm-nonfarm residence. The farm population refers to rural residents living on farms. Under this definition a farm is any place in rural territory from which sales of crops, livestock, and other agricultural products amounted to $1,000 or more during the previous 12-month period.

Householder. Survey procedures call for listing first the person (or one of the persons) in whose name the home is owed or rented. If the house is owned jointly by a married couple, either the husband or the wife may be listed first, thereby becoming the reference person, or householder, to whom the relationship of the other household members is recorded. One person in each household is designated as the ‘householder.’ The number of householders, therefore, is equal to the number of households.

Household. A household consists of all persons who occupy a housing unit. A house, an apartment or other group of rooms, or a single room is regarded as a housing unit when it is occupied or intended for occupancy as separate living quarters; that is, when the occupants do not live and eat with any other persons in the structure and there is either (1) direct access from the outside or through a common hall or (2) a kitchen or cooking equipment for the exclusive use of the occupants.

A household includes the related family members and all the unrelated persons, if any, such as lodgers, foster children, wards, or employees who share the housing unit. A person living alone in a housing unit or a group of unrelated persons sharing a housing unit as partners is also counted as a household. The count of households excludes group quarters. Examples of group quarters include rooming and boarding houses, college dormitories, and convents and monasteries.

Family. A family is a group of two or more persons (one of whom is the householder) related by birth, marriage, or adoption and residing together; all such persons (including related subfamily members) are considered members of one family.

Family household. A family household is a household maintained by a family; any unrelated persons (unrelated subfamily members and/or secondary individuals) who may be residing there are included. The number of family households is equal to the number of families. The count of family household members differs from the count of family members, however, in that the family household members include all persons living in the household, whereas family members include only the householder and his/her relatives,

Nonfamily household. A nonfamily household is a household maintained by a person living alone or with nonrelatives only.

Race. The population is divided into groups on the basis of race: White; Black; American Indian, Eskimo, or Aleut; Asian or Pacific Islander; and ‘other races.’

Persons of Spanish origin. Persons of Spanish origin were determined on the basis of a question that asked for self-identification of the person’s origin or descent. Respondents were asked to select their origin (or the origin of some other household member) from a ‘flash card’ listing ethnic origins. Persons of Spanish origin, In particular, were those who indicated that their origin was Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American, or some other Spanish origin. It should be noted that persons of Spanish origin may be of any race.

Work disability. Persons were classified as having a work disability if they were identified by the respondent as having a physical, mental, or other health condition that limits the kind or amount of work they can do.

Monthly income. The monthly income estimates for households are based on the sum of the monthly income received by each household member age 15 years old or over.

3-1


Cash income includes all income received from any of the sources listed in Appendix B-1. Rebates, refunds, loans, and capital gain or loss amounts from the sale of assets, and interhousehold transfers of cash such as allowances are not included. Accrued interest on Individual Retirement Accounts, KEOUGH retirement plans. and U.S. Savings bonds are also excluded. This definition differs somewhat from that used in the annual income reports based on the March CPS Incomesupplement questionnaire. These data, published in the Consumer Income Series, P-60, are based only on income received in a regular or periodic manner and, therefore, exclude lump-sum or one-time payments such as inheritances and insurance settlements. The March CPS income definition, however, does exclude the same income sources excluded by SIPP.

The income amounts represent amounts actually received during the month, before deductions for income and payroll taxes, union dues, Part B Medicare premiums, etc.

The SIPP income definition includes three types of earnings: wages and salary, nonfarm self-employment, and farm self-employment. The definition of nonfarm self-employment and farm self-employment is not based on the net difference between gross receipts or sales and operating expenses, depreciation, etc. The monthly amounts for these income types are based on the salary or other income received from the business by the owner of the business or farm during the 4-month reference period.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes quarterly averages for an earnings concept called ‘usual weekly earnings’ for employed wage and salary workers. The concept differs from the SIPP earnings concept since it is based on usual, not actual earnings, excludes the self-employed, and excludes earnings from secondary jobs.

While the inco.me amounts from most sources are recorded monthly for the 4-month reference period, property income amounts, interest, dividends, rental income, etc., were recorded as totals for the 4-month period. These totals were distributed equally between months of the reference period for purposes of calculating monthly averages.

Means-tested benefits. The term means-tested benefits refers to programs that require the income or assets (resources) of the individual or family be below specified guidelines in order to qualify for benefits. These programs provide cash and noncash assistance to the low-income population. The major sources of means- tested cash and noncash assistance are shown in Appendix B-2.

kledicare. This term refers to the Federal Health Insurance Program for the Aged and Disabled as provided for by Title XVIII of the Social Security Act. The phrase ‘Medicare covered’ refers to persons enrolled in the Medicare program, regardless of whether they actually utilized any Medicare covered health care services during the survey reference period.

Medicaid. This term refers to the Federal-State program of medical assistance for low-income individuals and their families as providedfor by Title XIX of the Social Security Act. The phrase ‘Medicaid covered’ refers to persons enrolled in the Medicaid program, regardless of whether they actually utilized any Medicaid covered health care services during the survey reference period.

Unemployment compensation. This term refers to cash benefits paid to unemployed workers through a State or local unemployment agency. These include all benefits paid under the Federal-State unemployment insurance program as estabfished under the Social Security Act, as well as those benefits paid to State and local government employees, Federal civilian employees. and veterans.

Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program. Benefits from the Federally funded LIHEAP authorized by Title XXVI of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1981, or comparable assistance provided through State funded assistance programs, may be received in the form of direct payment to the household as reimbursement for heating or cooling expenses or paid directly to the fuel dealer or landlord.

Special Supplemental Food Program for women, Infants, and Children (WIG). Benefits are received in the form of vouchers that are redeemed at retail stores for specffic supplemental nutritious foods. Eligible low- income recipients are infants and children up to age five and pregnant, postpartum. and breastfeeding women.

GLOSSARY OF SELECTED TERMS

With a Job. Persons are classified ‘with a job’ in a given month if they were 16 years old or over and, during the month, either (a) worked as paid employees or worked in their own business or profession or on their own farm or worked without pay in a family business or farm or (b) were temporarily absent from work either with or without pay. In general, the word ‘job’ implies an arrangement for regular work for pay where payment is in cash wages or salaries, at piece rates, in tips, by commission, or in kind (meals, living quarters, supplies received). ‘Job’ also includes self-employment at a business, professional practice, or farm. A business is defined as an activity which involves the use of machinery or equipment in which money has been invested or an activity requiring an office or ‘place of business’ or an activity which requires advertising; payment may be in the form of profits or fees.

The Current Population SurJey (CPS), the official source of labor force statistics for the Nation, uses the same definition for a job or business. The term ‘with a job,’ however, should not be confused with the term ‘employed’ as used in the CPS. ‘With a job’ includes those who were temporarily absent from a job because of layoff and those waiting to begin a new job In 30 days; in the CPS these persons are not considered ‘employed.’ See ‘Worked each week’ below.

Worked each week. Persons ‘worked each week’ in a month if, for the entire month, they were ‘with a job’ and not ‘absent without pay’ from the job. In other words, a person worked each week in any month when they were (a) on the job the entire month, or (b) they received wages or a salary for all weeks in the month, whether they were on the job or not. Persons also worked each week if they were self-employed and spent time during each week of the month at or on behalf of the business or farm they owned, as long as they received or expected to receive profit or fees for their work.

In the CPS, the concept ‘at work’ includes those persons who spent at least 1 hour during the reference week at their job or business. In the CPS, however, ‘at work’ does not include persons who were temporarily absent from their jobs during the entire reference week on paid vacation, sick leave, etc. In SIPP, ‘worked each week’ does include persons on paid absences.

Absent 1 or more weeks. Absent 1 or more weeks means absent without pay from a job or business. Persons were absent without pay in a month if they were ‘with a job’ during the entire month, but were not at work at that job during at least 1 full week (Sunday through Saturday) during the month, and did not receive wages or a salary for any time during that week. Reasons for an unpaid absence include vacation, illness. layoff, bad weather, labor disputes, and waiting to start a new job.

Looking for work. Persons who ‘looked for work’ in a given month are those who were 16 years old or over and (a) were without a job during at least 1 week during the month, (b) tried to get work or establish a business or profession in that week, and (c) were available to accept a job. Examples of jobseeking activities are (1) registering at a public or private employment office, (2) meeting with prospective employers, (3) investigating possibilities for starting a professional practice or opening a business, (4) placing or answering advertisements. (5) writing letters of application, and (6) being on a professional register,

-The CPS uses a similar concept of ‘looking for work.’ The term ‘unemployed’ as used in the CPS includes persons who were looking for work in the reference week and those who were ‘on layoff’ or ‘waiting to begin a new job in 30 days.”

Layoff. In general, the word ‘layoff’ means release from a job because of slack work, material shortages, inventory taking, plant remodeling, installation of machinery, or other similar reasons. For this survey, persons were also on ‘layoff’ who did not have job but who responded that they has spent at least 1 week on layoff from a job and that they were available to accept a job.

In addition, persons were on ‘layoff’ in a given month if they were 16 years old or over and (a) were ‘with a job’ but ‘absent without pay’ from that job for at least 1 full week during that month, and (b) they responded that their main reason for being absent from their job or business was ‘layoff. ’ ‘On layoff’ also includes a small number of persons who responded that they were waiting to report to a new wage and salary job that was to begin within 30 days. In other words, persons waiting to begin a new job are classified together with persons waiting to return to a job from which they have been laid off.

3-3


Full-time and part-time. The data on full- and part-time workers pertain to the number of hours a person usually worked per week during the weeks worked in the 4-month reference period of the survey. If the hours worked per week varied considerably, the respondent was asked to report an approximate average of the actual hours worked each week.

Persons 16 years old and over who reported usually working 35 or more hours each week during the weeks they worked are classified as ‘full-time”workers; persons who reported that they usually worked fewer than 35 hours are classified as ‘part-time’ workers. The same definitions are used in the CPS.

With labor force activity. The term ‘with labor force activii’ includes all persons with a job (as defined above) and those looking for work or on layoff from a job for at least 1 week during a given month. Conversely. those persons ‘with no labor force activity’ had no job, were not on layoff from a job and made no effort to find a job during the month.

INDEX TO SIPP 1987 PANEL WAVE 1 RECTANGULAR FILE

This is an index to the data dictionary for the 1967 panel SIPP Wave 1 rectangular core file

The five columns at the right present the beginning character location for the referenced data field or fields. Entries in the four righthand columns refer to data specific to particular months during the reference period For example, data in the column headed “MO 1 LOCATION” refer to the first reference months (four months prior to the interview). Entries in the column headed “INTV LOCATION” refer to characteristics as of the interview date, e.g., the highest grade attended, or other items not differentiated by month during the reference period. Where the entry refers to more than one consecutive data field, the location is that of the first character of the first field.

The column headed “MNEMONIC” presents the same 8-character data names as are shown in the data dictionary, with two exceptions. Where there are separate entries for the four reference months, an asterisk ( l ) replaces the 1, 2, 3, or 4 that would appear in the actual mnemonic. (Where there is an entry in the “INTV LOCATION” column as well as the four months, the data item refers to the same characteristic as of the interview date, and would carry a 5 in place of the asterisk in the mnemonic.) Where a colon appears in the mnemonic, as in SC1660:78, the index entry applies to two or more consecutive fields, in this case starting with SC1 660 and ending with SC1 678.

This index may also be used as an index to the questionnaire document itself, reproduced in the Users’ Guide text. Each item on the questionnaire carries a boxed 4digit number next to the answer fields. This number appears as part of the mnemonic wherever the correspondence between the item on tape and the questionnaire item is direct. The 4digit number is usually preceded by “SC,” but when other characters appear they add meaning. For example, WSl-2012 corresponds to questionnaire item 2012 (on class of worker) and the “WSl” distinguishes the response for the first wage/salary job from a response for the second such job, which would begin with “WS2.” Mnemonics without 4digit numbers are associated with items from the control card or are the result of manipulating or “recoding” one or more items from the questionnaire.
