The National Longitudinal Surveys Ten-Year Data Book for Middle-Aged and Older Men, 1966-1976 Columbus OH: Center for Human Resource Research, The Ohio State University, 1980 Cohort(s): Older Men Publisher: Center for Human Resource Research Keyword(s): Behavior; Demography; Health/Health Status/SF-12 Scale; Mobility; Schooling, Post-secondary; Training, Post-School; Work Attitudes; Work Experience This monograph contains about 150 tables that summarize the current status and prior life experience of a representative sample of men who at the time of reinterview in 1976 were between 55 and 69 years of age. Only limited analysis of the content of each of these tables is included. Separate distributions are provided for each of three-age categories and for two racial groups. The tables are further categorized into two major types. The first set contains a demographic profile of the men at the time of their initial interviews in 1966 and summarize their backgrounds, prior work experiences, attitudes toward work, health status, and characteristics of their 1966 survey week jobs. The second set is more extensive and includes two sections for each table. The first part of the table summarizes the experiences of the same group of men in 1966, 1971 and 1976 and provides information about their behavior as they age five and ten years. The second part controls for the age of the respondent and asks whether the behavior differs at two to three points in time. At issue is whether the behavior varies for the same age cohort over time. Among the characteristics studied are marital and family attributes, extent of post- school training, mobility measures (geographic, employer, occupational), attitudes toward retirement, survey week status, and characteristics of survey week job. |
