Longitudinal Labor Market Data: Sources, Uses, and Limitations Report, Washington DC: Assessment of Labor Force Measurements for Policy Formulation, National Council on Employment Policy, 1982 Cohort(s): NLS General Publisher: Author Keyword(s): Longitudinal Surveys; Research Methodology Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This study investigates the major sources of longitudinal data and their relative merits. This type of data has proven especially useful for three types of research: measurement and analysis of changes in individuals' status over time; analysis of intertemporal relationships; and analysis that must control for unobserved variables. These data have enabled other areas of research to be developed--which otherwise would have gone unnoticed. In addition, longitudinal data have increased research findings of previously unstable analytical assumptions. |
