Measuring Marriage & Divorce among Same-Sex Couples
Can you help me find a public-use codebook for Baccalaureate and Beyond (B&B)and the National Education Longitudinal Study (NELS)?
We have the CD-ROM for NELS 1988-2000. It is in my office (CD #256).
An alternative source for the codebook for the NELS data is:
http://www.nces.ed.gov/pubsearch/pubsinfo.asp?pubid=2002323
You can explore the public use data (both NELS and B&B) through DAS Online:
http://nces.ed.gov/dasolv2/tables/index.asp
Select the survey you want to explore in the Box above "Accessing the DAS to Create Tables".
You'll be prompted for a data use agreement and then taken to the software application.
The documentation for Baccalaureate and Beyond is not so readily available. You can access a variable list via the DAS site and examine the variables one by one.
I am exploring further options for B&B.
