Welcome to the CDS-TAS User Guide Wiki[edit]

This is the repository for user guides and related documentation for all waves of the PSID Child Development Supplement and PSID Transition into Adulthood Supplement. Contents may be saved in whole or in part to a PDF document.

What are the PSID Child Development Supplement (CDS) and PSID Transition into Adulthood Supplement (TAS)?[edit]

The PSID Child Development Supplement (CDS) and Transition into Adulthood Supplement (TAS) are longitudinal, multicohort studies to support research on the well-being of US children and young adults over historical and developmental time in family, school, and neighborhood context.

What is the Panel Study of Income Dynamics?[edit]

CDS and TAS are embedded in the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID), the world’s longest-running nationally representative household panel survey. With over 50 years of information collected from the same families and their descendants, PSID is a cornerstone of the US data infrastructure for empirically based social science research.

Annually between 1968 and 1997 and biennially since then, PSID has collected data on individuals and families that emphasize the dynamic and interactive aspects of family economics, demography, and health. When paired with CDS and TAS, the design and content of PSID enable research on the intergenerational influence of family on child and young adult outcomes and on how childhood and young adulthood shape later health and well-being.

These video tutorials offer an introduction to PSID, CDS, and TAS.

Data Access[edit]

The Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) is a longitudinal survey of a nationally-representative sample of U.S. families. The PSID data archive, spanning nearly five decades of data collection, contains over 95,000 variables on a diverse set of topics, including the dynamics of family composition change, marital and birth histories, housing, income, wealth, welfare participation, health status of family members, expenditures, philanthropy, and more. Over 100,000 individuals have ever participated in the panel, which includes up to seven generations within a family.

PSID is the longest running panel on family and individual (including child) dynamics and has achieved wave-to-wave reinterview response rates of 93-95 percent in recent waves. More information about the study and its instruments can be obtained from its website:

The PSID’s online bibliography provides references to studies using the data for many research topics (including a keyword index):

For TAS data users, the rich family data in the core PSID provide a valuable opportunity to explore the effects of family environmental factors in analyses of young adult outcomes. For a more comprehensive look at the PSID, please see the 2017 PSID User Guide:

PSID Data Center Files

Most of the family and individual-level data on all waves of the PSID, CDS, and TAS are housed in the PSID’s Online Data Center. There are tutorials that provide a guided overview to using the data. Customized data sets and codebooks can be generated through the easy-to-use Online Data Center: http://simba.isr.umich.edu/default.aspx

Data Files – Individual, Family, CDS, and TAS

In the Online Data Center, the data are grouped by PSID main study data and by CDS and TAS data. Within the PSID data group, the data are clustered by individual-level files and family level files. The individual level files include both wave-specific and time-invariant data. The family-level files include not only “raw” interview data but also complex generated variables on income, work, wealth, sample weights, and other measures. Data, by wave of the study, are provided as the next level within each of the data groupings. In the CDS and TAS data group, the data are clustered by child-level files, which include all of the interview modules, and by time diary activity files, which are at the activity level.

-The 2014 Child Development Supplement (CDS) to the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) collected data on children’s health, development, and well-being within the children’s family and neighborhood context for a nationally-representative sample of children in the U.S. CDS-2014 builds on the strengths of PSID, a genealogical study of U.S. families that began in 1968. The original CDS cohort, begun in 1997 on a cohort of children aged 0– 12 years was recently completed. In 2014, CDS was relaunched with an entirely new sample covering all children in PSID households aged 0–17 years. Detailed information was collected on the same topics as in the original CDS, and the study collected time diaries, assessments of reading and math skills, and interviews with children’s primary caregivers as well as with older children themselves. All of the data are publicly available free of charge through the PSID Online Data Center. Restricted data from CDS are also available to researchers through a contract. This User Guide provides essential information to researchers planning or undertaking research using the CDS-2014 data.
