Appendix 11: Collection of the Transcript Data, Wave 1

To complement data on respondents' educational experiences collected during the yearly interviews, NLSY97 staff collect transcripts directly from respondents' high schools as the youths graduate or leave school. When the transcripts are received from the schools, survey staff code the information they contain into a standard format. The resulting created variables comprise a history of the respondent's terms in school, courses taken, and other academic indicators. This appendix describes the survey materials used during data collection and explains the procedures and criteria for data entry and coding. It also lists specific details about individual Transcript Survey variables.

Transcript Survey Data Collection

Conducted in 1999-2000, wave I of the NLSY97 Transcript Survey sought hard copy transcripts from 1,622 NLSY97 respondents who had provided signed authorization for transcript collection, and who were no longer enrolled in high school in spring 2000. Non-enrollment occurred when the youth either graduated from high school or dropped out of school and was at least 18 years old. In wave I, coded transcript data are available for 1,417 respondents. Wave II collected additional transcripts in winter 2003-04, but data will not be available until the round 7 release, so it is not discussed here.

NORC mailed a transcript request packet to each school from which an NLSY97 youth received his or her high school diploma, or to the last school the youth attended. The packet contained informational materials about the NLSY97, a description of the NLSY97 Transcript Survey, and documentation of administrative permission from districts to contact schools. In addition, packets included the following items:

  1. a cover letter addressed to the school principal

  2. a one-page cover sheet questionnaire collecting school-specific grading and transcript policies

  3. a Student Request list identifying the sampled students in the school

  4. the signed permission forms for these students

These documents are available in PDF form at the link below:

Creation of the Transcript Data File

Organization of the data. There are several different types of variables in the transcript data file. First, at the school level the variable TRANS_SCH_CAT reports whether a course catalog was received from the school to aid in coding. The highest number of schools reported for any respondent is 12, so this variable is repeated 12 times. This course catalog variable also functions as the identification number of the school. During the coding process described below, each school attended by a respondent was assigned an ID number between 1 and 12, with the school that provided the transcript always listed as school #01. These numbers were used in variables that report which school the respondent attended in each term-for example, if a respondent has a value of 4 for term 1, then he or she attended school #04 in the course catalog variables. This ID number does not link to any variables in the main data file.

Second, the transcript file includes information about the respondents that is not associated with a specific term or course. For example, these variables present test scores on a variety of achievement tests (ACT, PSAT, SAT, SAT II, AP), information on absences and tardies, the student's school completion status, and dates of enrollment. Variables also indicate whether the respondent participated in programs such as gifted, bilingual, or special education.

A number of variables refer to the respondent's terms of enrollment. For up to 18 terms, these items report the beginning and ending dates of the term, the way in which the school year is divided (such as a season, semester, entire year, or another system), the academic year of the term, the respondent's grade level that term, and the number of credits earned. A variable listing the school the respondent attended during that term can be linked to the course catalog variable as described above.

Finally, the transcript file provides details about each course appearing on a student's high school transcript. Course-specific variables include the course code from the Revised Secondary School Taxonomy (SST-R), the grade earned in the course, and the credit value of the course. Because schools use many different grading systems, the course grades were converted into a standard scale that can be compared across respondents. A series of variables called "Recoding Status of Grade" indicates how the grade earned variable for each course was created. This process is described in more detail below.

Data entry and processing procedures. The transcript data capture process involved several distinct data entry steps, tailored to the structure of the data, the cleaning and reconciliation needs for the relevant variables, and scheduling requirements of the data collection process. The basic data entry and processing steps were:

  1. Entry of course-level data into an Access data capture system from high school transcripts

  2. Coding of entered course-level data using Access coding system

  3. Entry of student-level data from Student Request List and high school transcripts into NORC's SurveyCraft Computer-Assisted Data Entry (CADE) system

  4. Entry and coding of transfer school information from Student Request List, high school transcripts, and NLSY97 youth interview data using Access and SAS programs

  5. Entry of school-level data from one-page Transcript Cover Sheet into SurveyCraft CADE system

  6. Assigning course grades to a uniform grade scale using SAS transformations

Course-level data entry. Course-level data include the course title, course number (assigned by school), grade earned, credits earned, and honors designation. For matching purposes, the school ID was assigned and term dates were captured during this phase of data entry. Entry was done into an Access data-capture system. All courses were independently entered twice. Where entry and re-entry matched perfectly, no further quality control was performed. If one or more discrepancies were found electronically between the entry and re-entry, a supervisor adjudicated the two data-entered versions with the original hard copy transcript to determine the accurate values. Courses were entered in the order that they appeared on the transcript. This order varied from school to school, with systems including chronologically, alphabetically by course title, numerically by course number, etc.

Course coding. Course-level data were used for coding courses into the Revised Secondary School Taxonomy (SST-R), a hierarchical framework for high school course offerings. After all course-level data from a transcript had been entered, re-entered, and adjudicated, the transcript was available for course coding. To maximize coder familiarity with school naming and catalog conventions, all transcripts from a school were usually coded together. Coding of all courses was done independently by two coders. If the two codes were not equal, a supervisor adjudicated the discrepancy and assigned a final code. Because many schools did not submit course catalogs or had indecipherable course titles (e.g., Course 1), coders called some schools directly for assistance in coding, speaking to administrative or instructional staff who were able to clarify course content. The coding process used a menu-driven Access system, which exploited the hierarchical structure of the code frame and prevented coders from inadvertently entering invalid codes. All 'uncodable' courses were reviewed by the coding supervisor and project director where necessary.

Student-specific data down to the term level. All other student-specific data were captured in a SurveyCraft instrument for computer-assisted data entry. These variables include the student's enrollment in gifted, special education, or bilingual programs, standardized test scores, dates of enrollment at the school, class rank and cumulative grade-point average, term-level information on beginning and ending dates of terms, absences and tardies, and credits earned by term. The SurveyCraft program generated a single record for each youth, containing up to 18 terms of study. Term date information was used to match term-level data with the school attended during that term. All transcripts from a school were CADEd at the same time to exploit coder familiarity with transcript formats and school-specific abbreviations. All transcripts were independently entered twice. Where entry and re-entry matched perfectly, no further quality control was performed. If one or more discrepancies were found electronically between the entry and re-entry, a supervisor adjudicated the two data-entered versions with the original hard copy transcript to determine the accurate values. Terms were entered in chronological order when such sequence could be determined.

Transfer data. Transcripts often included information about courses attended at other institutions. These data could appear either as an original hard copy attachment to the sampled school's transcript or as additional lines on the sampled school's transcript. These terms and courses were CADEd during the appropriate stage of data entry, with a designation that the term or course pertained to a transfer school. Course and term-specific information about transferred work was generally complete, but information about the school from which work was transferred was often inadequate for coding purposes. As described above, all terms attended at the same school are associated with the same school ID.

School data. The one-page Transcript Cover Sheet provided information for assigning course grades to a uniform grade scale. These data were entered into a SurveyCraft data capture instrument, once for each school submitting valid transcripts. Ten percent of schools were re-entered, and a supervisor referred to the original hard-copy to adjudicate discrepancies.

Course grades. High school transcripts included a variety of systems for course grades, including letter grades or numbers. For ease of comparison, these were standardized into a uniform grading system. The standardized grading scale for the resulting CRS_GRADE variable ranges from 01 to 20. Table 1 lists the corresponding letter grades for each of the CRS_GRADE values.

Unrecodable grade

In addition to the standardized grade variable, survey staff created a variable for each course called CRS_GRADE_RECODE_STATUS. This variable provides information on how the CRS_GRADE variable was created from the information provided by the school. The values of the recoding status variable are listed in Table 2.

CRS_GRADE_RECODE_STATUS

Recoding Status

Recoded using grade specifications of own school

2

3

Uncodable grade

Each standardized grade was assigned using one of the following four methods:

  1. The transcript reported letter grades using the system in Table 1 above. All letter grades were directly assigned to the corresponding standardized grade in Table 1. Letters that could not be classified into one of the categories 1-19 were considered to be unrecodable and included in category 20. In the cases where the CRS_GRADE variable was recoded directly from the grade on the transcript, CRS_GRADE_RECODE_STATUS was assigned a value of 0.

  2. The school used numeric grades and provided grading specifications on the one-page Transcript Cover Sheet. For these respondents, numeric grades were converted to standardized grades using the grading specifications provided by the school. For example, if the numeric grade fell within the range for an 'A' as specified by that particular school, it was assigned to category 02. Fewer than 10% of schools provided multiple grading specifications; in all cases, the primary specifications were used. Due to the possibility of transcription errors, numeric grades below 15 were considered to be unrecodable when the minimum passing grade was higher than 15. For all cases where the CRS_GRADE variable was recoded from the transcript using the school's own grading specifications, CRS_GRADE_RECODE_STATUS was assigned a value of 1.

  3. The school used letter grades of a type different than those shown in Table 1. Grades of 'G' were classified as 05, 'O' and 'E' as 02, and 'O+' and 'E+' as 01. CRS_GRADE_RECODE_STATUS was assigned a value of 2. If the grades could not be recoded, then CRS_GRADE was assigned a value of 20 and CRS_GRADE_RECODE_STATUS was assigned to 3.

  4. The school used numeric grades and did not provide grading specifications. The means of the upper and lower limits of the grading systems across all schools were used to construct the standard grading system shown in Table 3. If the school did not specify its grading specifications, numeric grades (and numeric grades with a qualifier attached) were recoded based on this standard system. Once again, to take into account the possibility of transcription errors, numeric grades below 15 were considered to be unrecodable. CRS_GRADE_RECODE_STATUS was assigned a value of 2 when recoding was done using the standard grade specifications. If the grades could not be recoded, then CRS_GRADE was given a value of 20 and CRS_GRADE_RECODE_STATUS was coded as 3.

Notes on Transcript Survey Variables

Transcript Survey variables can be found in the NLSY97 data set by browsing through the "transcript survey" area of interest or by searching for question names with the prefix TRANS_. This section provides supplemental notes not included in the codebook about individual transcript variables.

Table 4. Additional information about Transcript Survey variables

Question name (all begin with TRANS_) and reference number(s)

Variable title and notes

CRS_CODE.xx
R97128.-R97251.

Course Code xx
Courses are numbered approximately as they appeared on the high school transcript. The course number has no content except to identify the course uniquely. Because terms are numbered approximately chronologically, course numbers and term numbers may not increase in tandem. Information on the Secondary School Taxonomy - Revised (SST-R) is available on the National Center for Education Statistics website, http://nces.ed.gov. Note that researchers must use the crosswalk provided at the end of this appendix to compare the NLSY97 course codes to the SST-R.

CRS_CREDIT.xx
R97252.-R97375.

Credits Earned for Course xx
Credits earned are listed in the units provided by the school and are not necessarily comparable across schools. Some schools may award 1 credit for a one-year course, while others award credits according to the number of hours per week that the course meets. Course credits within a term may not sum to the credits earned for the term due to additional credits from non-coursework activities (e.g., community service, yearbook, etc.), or because of credit accumulation rules that involve multiple courses. For example, all religion courses may be worth .5 credits, but a student may face a ceiling of 2 credits earned from religion courses across all high school terms.

CRS_GRADE_RECODE_STATUS.xx
R97376.-R97499.

Recoding Status of Grade for Course xx
See "Course Grades" discussion under Data Entry and Processing above.

Coding Information for Course Code Variables

As part of the NLSY97 Transcript Survey, project staff coded respondents' courses using the revised Secondary School Taxonomy of courses (SST-R). The SST-R codes use a combination of numbers and letters to create a unique identifier for each type and level of high school course content. Because the NLSY97 data base system requires that all data be in numeric form, it was necessary to convert the SST-R codes into numbers for use with the Transcript Survey data. The following table indicates the NLSY97 number assigned for each original SST-R code and course description. These codes were used in variables R97128.-R97251. (TRANS_CRS_CODE.01-.124) in the NLSY97 data set.
