• Abstract:
  This working paper of the Subcommittee on Federal Longitudinal Surveys discusses the goals, management, operations, sample designs, estimation methods, and analysis of longitudinal surveys. Conclusions are drawn about where to use longitudinal surveys, and the need to have an evaluation component in these surveys. The Appendices contain twelve case studies of recent longitudinal surveys. The report is intended primarily to be useful to Federal agencies in choosing to do, and then in designing, carrying out, and analyzing data from longitudinal surveys. The Federal Committee on Statistical Methodology intends to organize seminars to discuss the report with interested Federal agency staff members. The Subcommittee on Federal Longitudinal Surveys was co-chaired by Barbara A. Bailar and Daniel Kasprzyk, Bureau of Census, Department of Commerce.
