NSF Collaborative Exchange Between Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) and British Household Panel Survey (BHPS)

Investigators:   Frank P. Stafford, Robert F. Schoeni

The work proposed in this project is a collaborative exchange between senior staff members of the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) and the British Household Panel Survey (BHPS) for the purpose of sharing information and generating ideas that will lead to the development of new and improved cybertools. It is expected that such an exchange will result in longer-term collaborations between the two teams that will yield ongoing technological developments. These advances will benefit not only PSID and BHPS, but the broader international survey community as well, through the sharing of developments with other sister surveys such as the German Socio-Economic Panel. Moreover, such improvements will be beneficial to the general scientific user community as these technological developments lead to the enhancement of tools for data collection, processing, distribution, and analysis.



To achieve this goal, senior staff from BHPS will travel to the University of Michigan, the home site of the PSID study, in the fall of 2006. The PSID senior staff will similarly travel to the home site of the operations of the BHPS, at the University of Essex, in the early summer of 2007. Information in the domains of data collection, processing, distribution, and analysis will be shared between the projects during these visits, and specific next steps will be identified in each area for the development and/or improvement of cybertools.

Funding Period: 07/01/2006 to 06/30/2007
