STUDY OF CONSUMER PURCHASES IN THE UNITED STATES, 1935-1936 (ICPSR 8908) SUMMARY: In 1935, the principal investigators interviewed a national sample of all families in the United States to ascertain for the first time in a single national survey the earning and spending habits of inhabitants of large and small cities, villages, and farms. Families completed questionnaires that reported in detail all household income sources and expenditures. Respondents were asked to list the amount of all income received by the family from each person employed as well as from other sources such as gifts, interest and dividends, pensions, and work in the home. Complete information was also provided on family composition, type of living quarters, housing accommodations, fuel and other utility expenses, medical care, recreational activities, tobacco use, purchase of reading materials, educational expenses, miscellaneous occupational expenses, gifts furnished, taxes paid, automobile expenses, personal care costs, and a detailed appraisal of all changes in family assets and liabilities over the course of the previous year. Families also reported the quantity of food items consumed, unit purchase price, and total expense of all food items consumed by the family in the seven days prior to the interview. In addition, families were queried on furnishings and equipment purchased for the home as well as on all items of clothing purchased for each family member in the previous year. Demographic characteristics recorded for each household member include relationship to the household head, age, sex, occupation, weeks spent at home or away from home, wage rate, length of time employed during the year, and total earnings. UNIVERSE: All native-born families living in the United States in 1935-1936. SAMPLING: The data were collected from 51 cities, 140 villages, and 66 farm counties. The principal investigators selected these areas as primary sampling units to represent the demographic, regional, and economic characteristics of the United States. From these areas a randomly selected group of approximately 700,000 families were screened as a first wave. From this first group, approximately 300,000 families were selected to supply basic income and housing information. Some 61,000 families were selected from this second group to furnish more comprehensive expenditure information. For the present collection, random subsamples of approximately 5,000 families who completed income schedules only and 6,000 families who completed both income and expenditure schedules were chosen. NOTE: (1) A portion of the families surveyed in this collection provided only basic income and housing information while other families also provided detailed expenditure information. Part 1, released previously, includes income and housing data for ALL sampled families in urban areas, regardless of whether they provided expenditure information. Part 2 includes income and housing data for urban and rural families who DID NOT provide any expenditure data. Parts 3 and 4 include both income and expenditure data for urban and rural families, respectively. (2) Facsimilies of the original income and expenditure interview forms (called "schedules") are provided as a Portable Document Format (PDF) file. The PDF file format was developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated and can be accessed using PDF reader software, such as the Adobe Acrobat Reader.

INTRODUCTION Data Collection Description I Data Collection Procedures, Sampling, and VII Study Questionnaires Project Sampling, Data Entry, and Processing X File Structure XV Codebook Information XXI ICPSR Processing Information XXIII APPENDIX XXIV CODEBOOK 1 VARIABLE DESCRIPTION LIST I INTRODUCTION DATA COLLECTION DESCRIPTION Beginning in 1888, and periodically thereafter, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor conducted nationwide surveys to measure the family income and expenditure habits of the U.S. working class population. The first of these surveys, which also includes data collected by European government agencies, is available from ICPSR as "Cost of Living of Industrial Workers in the United States and Europe, 1888-1890" (ICPSR 7711). A second investigation, conducted in 1901, is unfortunately unavailable and was apparently destroyed years ago. The Bureau undertook a third survey during the final years of World War I. More comprehensive in scope than its predecessors, this study, called "Cost of Living in the United States, 1917-1919", interviewed 12,817 families in 99 cities located throughout the United States. This collection includes 2,224 variables detailing the income sources and specific consumer items purchased by each family in a calendar year. This file is currently available from ICPSR as Study 8299. By the 1930's the need for even more detailed data on this subject was clearly recognized. The Bureau of Labor Statistics was joined by the Bureau of Home Economics of the Department of Agriculture, the Central Statistical Board, the Works Progress Administration, and the National Resources Committee to formulate a plan to interview a national sample of all families in the United States which would encompass the earning and spending habits of inhabitants of large and small cities, villages, and farms for the first time in a single survey. In an unpublished interim report dated January 13, 1936, the Consumption Research Staff of the National Resources Committee described their goal as follows: "The need for an investigation into the manner in which American families spend their incomes has long been recognized, both by Government agencies and by private organizations. In 1929 the Social Science Research Council emphasized this need in its outline of a proposed study of 'Consumption According to Income: a Suggested Plan for an Inquiry into the Economic and Social Well-being of the American People'. During the past five years, the maladjustment between the nation's producing power and its II actual consumption has stressed still further the importance of basic data on the consumption habits and needs of the population." "[This] survey ... will make such data available for the first time in American statistical history. Although numerous studies of family expenditures have been made during the past fifty years, they have usually covered only very small samples of families, and the few large investigations which have been undertaken have been restricted to certain groups of the population...No studies have ever been made covering representative samples of the village population, or of the urban business groups. Since the studies which are available have used very diverse methods of collecting and analyzing the data, it is impossible to fit the results together to give a satisfactory indication of the consumption habits of the population. For this, simultaneous studies of large and representative samples of urban and rural families are required. The present survey is planned to meet this need." In order to fulfill their objectives, the agencies planning this study chose communities of varying sizes in six geographic regions of the United States: New England, East Central, West Central, Southeast, Rocky Mountain, and Pacific Northwest. (East Central and West Central were later combined and called North Central; see the list of communities below). Within each of these regions, the planners conducted interviews in one large city (population: 252,000 - 302,000), two or, sometimes, three middle-sized cities (30,000 - 72,000), and from four to nine small cities (8,000 - 19,000). Two large metropolises, Chicago and New York, were also included as part of the study in order to measure living conditions in urban conglomerations with more than 1,000,000 inhabitants. Within the same six regions families from two or more groups of villages (500 - 3,200) as well as two or more groups of farm counties were also surveyed. The agencies conducting the survey selected farm counties which specialized in a particular type of farming because they were interested in studying and comparing the spending and consumption patterns of farm families who produced different agricultural products. In total, surveys were conducted in 30 states, which included the following 51 cities, 140 villages, and 66 farm counties: Metropolises (2): Chicago, IL New York, NY III Large Cities (6): Providence, RI Columbus, OH Atlanta, GA Omaha-Council Bluffs, NE-IA Denver, CO Portland, OR Middle-sized cities (14): Haverhill, MA New Britain, CT New Castle, PA Muncie, IN Springfield, IL Dubuque, IA Springfield, MO Columbia, SC Mobile, AL Butte, MT Pueblo, CO Aberdeen-Hoquiam, WA Bellingham, WA Everett, WA Small cities (29): Wallingford, CT Willimantic, CT Greenfield, MA Westbrook, ME Beaver Falls, PA Connellsville, PA Logansport, IN Peru, IN Mattoon, IL Lincoln, IL Beaver Dam, WI Mt.

As you will note from the list of places listed under the variable called, CITY/TOWN_OR_VILLAGE (Variable 6 in Part 2; Variable 10 in Parts 3 and 4), names of other localities also have appeared in the actual schedule forms; most are villages in the same general area as the villages listed above. In other instances, variations used by the original survey interviewers or difficulties in deciphering the hand-written names when converting this information into machine-readable form introduced additional 'localities' to the list. VII DATA COLLECTION PROCEDURES, SAMPLING, AND STUDY QUESTIONNAIRES In order to ascertain the spending habits of the American people, the principal investigators developed a plan to survey a representative sample of the population. They determined that region, degree of urbanization, race, composition of the family, occupation and the amount of income were all crucial factors affecting the expenditure patterns of individuals and families. Specific cities, villages, and farm counties were chosen, not as representative of ALL urban and rural areas in the entire country, but to provide a basis for comparing the underlying assumptions of the spending decisions of the population as a whole. Three complete samples of the population were undertaken in conducting this mammoth survey. In the first "wave" a sample of approximately 700,000 families was selected from all of the geographic areas listed above on a random basis. Real property inventory lists were used for Chicago and New York City, city directories for other larger cities, and area sampling methods for small towns and rural areas. Families were selected for interviewing in each city, town, or locality in numbers proportionate to the share of the national population residing in the city. In this way the populations of larger and smaller cities, small towns, and rural areas were represented. For the first sample, only rather limited information was collected. This sample was employed, in effect, as a screen to identify families with specified demographic, regional, and economic characteristics of concern. On the basis of the information obtained through this large sample, a second sample of approximately 300,000 families was surveyed. For selection to this "second wave" it was required that families include at least two members, with husband and wife married for at least one year, and with no more than the equivalent of ten boarders for the survey year. In addition to the above requirements, farm families had to live in a setting that met the census definition of a farm; the family itself must operate the farm (or in the Southeast, be a sharecropper) and have conducted farming activities for at least one year. Only white families were included except in New York City, Columbus, Ohio, and the South. For these areas a proportionate sample of native-born black families was selected and interviewed. Families were admitted to this VIII sample without restriction in terms of occupation, income, employment status, or whether they were drawing or had drawn relief during the year. For comparative purposes, the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Bureau of Home Economics also surveyed other families who did not meet eligibility requirements for completing the family schedule. These could "...include native white families without both husband and wife, one person households, families in which the husband and wife had been married less than 1 year, families rooming rather than maintaining housekeeping quarters, foreign, Negro, and other color families." [BULLETIN OF THE UNITED STATES BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS, No. 649, 1939, p. 269.] Indeed, small numbers of black families were interviewed in a number of cities and towns throughout the regions selected for this survey. A more detailed questionnaire (hereafter called the FAMILY SCHEDULE) was then administered to these 300,000 families. The family schedule included 140 items bearing upon family composition, income levels and sources, occupation, characteristics of housing, and direct relief received during the year. Of particular research value are items describing the dwelling unit (including type of structure, monthly rental value or mortgage payment, and mortgage interest paid). Also given is the income received by the family from each person employed as well as from other sources such as gifts, interest and dividends, pensions, and work in the home. The information provided by the family schedule administered in the second wave of the 1935-1936 survey formed the basis for a third, more restricted sample of approximately 61,000 families. In order to be selected for this "third wave" non-farm families must have had at least one wage earner in a clerical, professional, or business occupation. A minimum income for the survey year of $500 was required in the largest cities and $250 in smaller cities and rural areas. No upper limits were imposed upon income for admission to this sample. Families that had received relief were excluded from this "third wave" as were families that included more than the equivalent of one boarder during the survey year or more than the equivalent of one guest for half the year. The families were required to have included at least husband and wife, to have "kept house" for at least nine months, and couples married for less than a year were excluded. Thus recently married couples and families residing in hotels, institutions, and lodging houses were not interviewed. To be eligible farm families must have met IX all these general criteria and, in addition, should have been full-time farmers (except in the state of Oregon where the Bureau of Home Economics conducted a special study of part-time farm operators). The vast majority of families who participated in this "third wave" adhered to the criteria described above but users will encounter a few exceptions in the sample provided with this data collection. The families selected for the "third wave" sample were reinterviewed and a series of very extended questionnaires (hereafter called EXPENDITURE SCHEDULES) were administered. Each family was asked to fill out three types of schedules: a main schedule for various household expenditures, a supplementary schedule on food consumed during the seven days prior to the interview (and also including records of household furnishings and equipment purchased during the previous year), and schedules documenting clothing purchases for each member of the family during the year. More than 3,000 specific items are included on the three expenditure schedule types. However, no family reported purchasing all of the items listed in these three schedules. The main household expenditure schedule included sections for expenditures of all types. This schedule contained nearly 800 separate items asking respondents to provide complete information on family composition, living quarters, housing expense, fuel and other utility expenses, medical care, recreational activities, tobacco use, purchase of reading materials, educational expense, miscellaneous occupational expenses, gifts presented, taxes paid, automobile expense, personal care costs, and to furnish a detailed appraisal of all changes in family assets and liabilities over the schedule year. There were also sections on this schedule which summarized family expense on clothing, furnishings, and provided an inventory of all household equipment (e.g., radios, refrigerators, washing machines, etc.) owned by the family. Finally, a summary of food purchases was also included with detailed information on the family's weekly, monthly and seasonal expenditure for nine general categories of food commodities (such as groceries, meat and fish, dairy products, soft drinks, etc.). A second separate expenditure schedule was also used and concerned expenditures for food consumed in the seven days prior to the interview. The family was asked to list the quantity consumed, unit purchase price, total expense, and whether the item was home-produced or received as a gift X for some 681 specific items including meats of all types, seafood, dairy products, vegetables, grain products as well as sweets and miscellaneous commodities such as coffee, tea and canned foods as well as all home furnishings and equipment. A third schedule reported on the purchase of all clothing items for each family member, including the number of each clothing commodity purchased, the unit price, expense for that item for the year, and the season in which it was purchased. PROJECT SAMPLING, DATA ENTRY AND PROCESSING Information in this collection was converted to machine-readable form by ICPSR under grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities (Grant Number RT-20853-87) and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation (Grant Number B1989-22), supplemented by institutional cost-sharing at the University of Michigan. The original completed questionnaires are part of the permanent collections of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) in Washington, D.C. Since the size of this collection precluded entry of all families into machine-readable form, ICPSR, in conjunction with the Survey Research Center, Institute of Social Research, at the University of Michigan, selected statistical samples of families and interviews to represent the collection in its entirety. In order to accomplish this goal, ICPSR employed separate samples to represent the different components of the collection. For these purposes, one project sample, referred to here as the "FAMILY SAMPLE" was drawn from the set of 300,000 original family schedules. The second sample, referred to below as the "URBAN EXPENDITURE SAMPLE" was drawn from the set of 26,000 urban families who completed the main expenditure schedule. The third, or "RURAL EXPENDITURE SAMPLE" was drawn from the 35,000 expenditure schedules administered to rural families. To facilitate research analyses the information from the samples of expenditure schedules was linked to information for the same families from the relevant family schedules. As was noted, the expenditure schedules include only summary information on such matters as the occupation, employment status, and income of individual family members. The collection presents additional complications in terms of the sampling procedures originally employed in the 1930s. Neither collectively nor, of course, individually can XI the several samples that provide the bases of the 1935-1936 collection be seen as a "probability" sample of the United States population of the time. The survey reflects families in the United States selected from within 257 geographical sites that vary in level of urbanization. The sites are located in all regions of the nation, but technically do not constitute a probability sample of the United States. That is, the sample of families that results cannot be used to estimate the characteristics of the national population within calculable bounds of sampling error because the probabilities of inclusion in the sample are unknown. The characteristics of the original samples on which the 1935-1936 collection was based posed an initial and fundamental decision for the design of project samples. The design of the original sample, for reasons known only to the original investigators, was such as to overrepresent the populations of some areas of the nation while underrepresenting others. One possible approach considered by ICPSR would have been to design project samples to attempt to "repair" the malrepresentation characteristic of the original sample. That is, one possible design would have employed the population distribution of the nation as reflected in the Censuses of 1930 and 1940 to oversample collection materials from those sites that shared characteristics with other sites that appear underrepresented in the original sample. In this way a disproportionate allocation of project samples might have been designed to overcome apparent underrepresentation of particular areas in the original survey. This approach was rejected on several counts. Such an allocation of the project subsamples might have succeeded in matching the actual POPULATION distribution of the nation as reflected in the Censuses. On the other hand, that allocation would almost certainly not have matched the national population for other variables of research interest. That is, such matches can be made at best only for variables that are included in both the Censuses of the period and in the collection at issue here. At the same time, adjusting allocations of the samples cannot overcome the fact that particular areas within regions were omitted from the original samples. No weighting scheme can reflect the fact that areas that were omitted from the original sample may have been distinctive. Reflecting these and related considerations a different approach to the basic design of project samples was employed. Self-weighting samples (samples that assign equal XII probabilities of selection to all records included in the collection) were chosen instead of samples that attempt to repair existing problems with the original sample. These samples can be seen as controlled reflections of the collection of original materials. These samples have all the distributional properties on all variables of the original collection except that they include fewer data records. If researchers using the computer-readable version of the project samples wish to adjust the samples (through weighting) to reflect known distributions they may do so, choosing any distribution of substantive or theoretical interest to them. The application of any sampling procedure, however, required specific information as to the size of the universe. General estimates of the number of families interviewed, referred to above, appeared in issues of the BULLETIN of the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the MISCELLANEOUS PUBLICATIONS series of the United States Department of Agriculture. But detailed information on the actual number of particular schedule types was unavailable. In fact no one knew how many schedules had survived after a half century of storage in government facilities. The first task, therefore, was to undertake a comprehensive examination of all materials related to this collection. Any attempt to derive an accurate count of these records was complicated by both the size of the collection and its physical location. The urban portion of the Study of Consumer Purchases was stored in the main branch of NARA in downtown Washington, D.C. However, records for a single family were not stored together but in separate series of boxes. This part of the collection comprised 694 "archive" (one-third cubic foot) boxes of family schedules and 579 similar boxes of expenditure schedules. The rural portion of the Study of Consumer Purchases was stored at the Federal Records Center in Suitland, MD. This segment of the collection comprised some 468 one cubic foot boxes of material and was only incompletely documented. In order to determine the full extent of the rural records all boxes were examined and inventoried. Many boxes contained assorted check lists completed by editors after interviews were completed in the field and forwarded to a general office for further scrutiny. Some boxes also contained ancillary schedules and miscellaneous notes collected by interviewers themselves during their travels. XIII None of these extraneous records were to be made machine-readable. ICPSR drew three distinct samples from all of these materials. The procedures used to determine the universe of records present in the collection, the actual sampling process itself, and the results of each sample are described in detail below. THE FAMILY SAMPLE. Because the rural and urban family schedules for the collection were stored in separate locations, two samples were necessary to represent these materials, one drawn from the rural schedules located in Suitland and the other from the urban schedules stored in the National Archives building in Washington, D.C. These two samples were then merged to create the project Family Sample referred to above. Each of the two components of the Family Sample was drawn in a somewhat different manner. In order to estimate the number of URBAN family schedules, a "quick" count of schedules from 100 randomly selected boxes was done. This yielded an estimate of 297,905 schedules for all 694 boxes compared to the published estimate of 241,000. On the basis of these two figures, a compromise figure of 265,600 was chosen as the pre-sampling estimation of the size of the universe of urban family schedules. A two-stage stratified sample, with the final selection utilizing ten replicate subsamples of family schedule cards was implemented based upon the original arrangement of those cards. A sampling fraction of 1 schedule selected for entry for every 83 schedules counted was then chosen in order to assure a minimum of 3,200 randomly selected families. An actual count of the RURAL family schedules yielded a total of 43,378. A systematic sample consisting of ten replicate subsamples (ten random starts) of these schedules was drawn, again using the existing arrangement of the family schedule cards in the boxes. ICPSR had originally intended to sample approximately one in seventy-five family schedules from both the urban and rural portions of the collection to constitute this Family Sample. This would have yielded approximately 3,200 schedules from the larger urban areas and 800 schedules from the more rural areas investigated in the original survey. Because the number of rural schedules thus drawn would have been relatively low, it was necessary to depart from the direct proportionality of the sample that was discussed XIV above. In order to provide a sufficient number of cases for the study of particular groups in rural environments (for example, Black families located primarily in the South), a supplementary sample of 1,000 family schedules from the rural portion of this collection was also drawn, utilizing procedures identical to those described above. Thus, a skip interval of 24 over the total of 43,378 RURAL family schedules was employed to select 1,800 random family schedules. The final project Family Sample will consist of approximately 5,000 schedules spread across both the rural and urban portions of the original investigation. The URBAN EXPENDITURE SAMPLE of the survey comprised families which filled out several different schedules recording information on food, clothing, and general household expense. All schedules for a family were stored in a single envelope which contained the schedule number for the family on the outside. Since only approximately 26,000 families completed such schedules, a complete count of all envelopes was undertaken, yielding 26,091 families. A two-stage stratified sample of 3,000 families was chosen based on drawing ten replicate samples using ten random start numbers and a skip interval of 86.97. The sample itself was drawn in two passes. First, data entry personnel entered a small amount of identifying information from the envelopes containing the schedules for each family in thee records collection, using a microcomputer entry system. Software on the microcomputer identified certain envelopes by applying equal probabilities of selection. These sample envelopes were then identified to the data entry person making a second pass through each box of schedules, and the complete schedules from those envelopes were key-entered. The 3,000 families to be chosen represent approximately a one-in-nine sample of extant urban expenditure schedules. These schedules, as was mentioned above, are stored separately from the urban family schedule cards. To complete the work on the URBAN EXPENDITURE SAMPLE, it was necessary to locate and key-enter data from the family schedule cards for the 3,000 families selected for this project sample. The RURAL EXPENDITURE SAMPLE was a single-stage probability sample of the 36,734 expenditure schedules tabulated in this portion of the collection. As with its urban counterpart, all rural expenditure schedules were counted. Selection of 3,000 families for this sample XV (approximately a one-in-twelve sample) was undertaken using the same two-pass procedure described for the urban expenditure sample above. In the case of the RURAL EXPENDITURE SAMPLE, however, it was not necessary to search for matching family schedule cards for the families selected, since they were stored in the same envelopes that contained the expenditure schedules. However, food and clothing schedules for these rural families were stored in separate boxes from the main expenditure schedules. All schedules for a single family in both the urban and rural samples were located and matched to produce a single family record which contains all available income and expenditure information. As with the urban expenditure schedule sample, ten replicate samples of the population of rural expenditure schedules were completed, using a skip interval of 360 for each sample, to choose the sample of 3,000 rural families. FILE STRUCTURE The construction of these three data samples from the 1935-1937 Study of Consumer Purchases is intended, as far as available resources allowed, to be an accurate representation of this immense research collection. The location and availability of the original sources encouraged entry of data in a sequence different from that envisioned in the three samples. First of all, preparations for data entry were more easily established at the Main Research Room of the National Archives in Washington, D.C. In addition, the URBAN portion of the collection was more easily accessible than were the RURAL records stored in Suitland. When work commenced at the National Archives, samples were drawn, and all urban schedules selected for entry, whether from the URBAN FAMILY SAMPLE or the URBAN EXPENDITURE SAMPLE, were entered. It was only after the completion of entry of all urban records that the project turned its attention to the sampling and entry of rural records. As with the predecessor to this collection, "Cost of Living in the United States, 1917-1919", ICPSR planned to distribute the data in stages as circumstances and the completion of logical segments of the project would allow. In this instance, it proved impractical to release one complete data sample at a time so, alternatively, ICPSR has decided to provide the social science research community initially with the entire collection of urban family schedules. These include both those families who participated only in the income portion (the "second wave") of the study and families who were selected to complete the expenditure portion (the "third wave") as well. Thus, users will find both the urban portion of the FAMILY SAMPLE and XVI the family schedules of as many of the 3,000 families selected for the URBAN EXPENDITURE SAMPLE as could be located. This first edition of this collection, released in February 1991, contained 5,975 family schedule records, 3,266 from families selected for the random family sample, 2,675 from families who were part of the expenditure sample, and 34 who were chosen from both samples. This single file from the first edition of this collection is now Part 1 (Income Data for All Sampled Urban Families) of the second edition. With the completion of this second edition, all remaining schedules completed by the sampled families are included, except for the detailed clothing schedules which will constitute a final, separate file. In preparing these schedules for release to the social science research community, ICPSR produced three voluminous data files and corresponding machine-readable documentation. These files were prepared to facilitate analytic comparisons between urban and rural families. After all, one of the chief goals of this survey was to treat the entire U.S. population as a whole - to study the rural portion, not as a separate entity, but to measure its levels of income and expenditure with those families living in more urbanized areas. Researchers who would prefer to study one segment of the population can still do so easily by subsetting the data should they wish (see the URBAN-RURAL variable - Variable 8 in Part 2 and Variable 14 in Parts 3 and 4). The merging of urban and rural families in a single data file provided significant processing challenges and difficulties. In terms of the actual schedule forms used, the survey population was divided into three groups: urban, town (i.e., small city) or village, and farm. You will find a complete set of the facsimiles of all the schedule forms used in this collection in a separate Adobe Acrobat electronic Portable Document File (PDF) associated with this collection. The following table summarizes the names and content of these forms: Table 1 FAMILY SCHEDULES (housing and income information) Family Schedule - Urban Family Schedule - Town or Village Family Schedule - Farm XVII EXPENDITURE SCHEDULES (general family expenditures) Expenditure Schedule - Urban Expenditure Schedule - Town or Village Expenditure Schedule - Farm EXPENDITURE SCHEDULES (detailed food expenditures) Food Consumed during last 7 days - while two different schedule forms were used (one by interviewers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics in urban areas and one by interviewers from the Bureau of Home Economics in rural [town/village, farm] areas) they were identical in terms of specific food items queried but only differed in the kind of geographic/identification information asked EXPENDITURE SCHEDULES (detailed clothing expenditures) Clothing Purchases During Schedule Year - Woman or Girl Clothing Purchases During Schedule Year - Man or Boy These two schedules followed the pattern of of the food schedules - each appeared in two different forms (urban and rural families), contained identical specific clothing items, and differed only in geographic/identification content In sum there were twelve different schedules used to enter data about the demographic, housing, income, and expenditure patterns of all of the families which appear in this collection. If one examines these schedules, it becomes clear that the differences between the urban and rural versions of the income and expenditure schedules are not major. Many elements of the questionnaires are common to all the schedules but are located in different places. For example, the section on automobiles in the general expenditure questionnaire is identical in content in the town/village and farm schedules and is only slightly different in the urban schedule but appears in different places within the schedule itself (Section VI of the town/village and farm forms and Section XVII in the urban form). In other cases, each schedule may have one or more unique sections. This is particularly true with the farm income schedule which contains sections that would pertain only to farm families (e.g., gross money income from XVIII farming, farm expenses, and the value of products furnished by the farm for the family's own use). When ICPSR merged all of these sections and varied sequences of questions together into a single file, the resulting order of variables could not by definition follow ANY single schedule but could only be an amalgam of all. In the documentation, whenever a section is unique to a particular schedule it is described as such. For example, Section III of the family schedule for farm families, Gross Money Income From Farming, begins with the entry: "This section appears only in the family farm schedule". If an item is common to more than one schedule, its location in each original schedule is marked in the variable description. This is done by prefacing each original section designation with a single letter (U for urban, V for town/village, and F for farm) to indicate the schedule from which it was derived. To illustrate, U:Q.IX 11(b); V:Q.IX 13(b); F:Q.VII 14(b) Has any member of family had work relief during schedule year paid in kind? This indicates that this question appeared in Section IX, No. 11b in the urban family schedule, Section IX, No. 13b of the of the village family schedule and Section VII, No. 14b of the farm family schedule. If only two abbreviations appear (U and V, U and F, F and V) the question was only asked on those two schedule forms. If NO abbreviation appears before a question number, this means the question was asked in all three schedules and had the same location in each. A detailed description of each data file follows: THE FAMILY SAMPLE FILE (income data only) This file, which constitutes Part 2 of this collection and is called Income Data for Urban and Rural Families, contains data from 5,310 families (3,490 urban; 1,088 village; and 732 farm). As mentioned earlier in this introduction, these families were chosen from a population of more than 300,000 families who completed this schedule. All of the families in this file provided income information ONLY. They were not part of the sample which participated in the expenditure portion of this study. XIX Each family completed a short, two-sided form appropriate to the size of the community in which they lived. There are three separate family schedule forms, one for urban areas, one for towns or villages, and a third for farms. The three schedules are much alike, particularly the urban and town/village forms, which differ in content in only one area: the town/village form contains a small section, Part X, entitled Value of Food Home Produced for Family Use. This section is absent from the urban schedule. The farm schedule lacks a section on home ownership but has several unique sections: Part III, Gross Money Income From Farming; Section IV, Farm Expenses; Section V, Size, Tenure, and Value of Farm(s), and Section VIII, Value of Products Furnished By Farm for Family's Own Use. These five sections appear at the end of the combined family sample data file. THE EXPENDITURE SAMPLE FILE (includes both income and expenditure data) As with the family sample file, the expenditure sample file contains data from 6,134 families who lived in either urban or rural areas (3,100 urban; 1,519 village; and 1,515 farm). This sample constitutes Parts 3 and 4 of this collection. Part 3 includes income and expenditure data for urban families while Part 4 includes income and expenditure data for rural families. As mentioned earlier in this introduction, these families were chosen from a population of more than 61,000 families who may have completed all of the schedules associated with this sample, i.e., general family expenditure forms comprising six pages of entries, detailed food and furnishings consumption and expenditure forms of four pages each, and clothing expenditure forms for each family member, two pages for females (with separate sections for children under 2 years of age) and a single page for males. Not all families completed all of these schedules or provided complete information on the schedules they did complete. The general expenditure schedules contain only a few sections which are unique to particular families. The urban schedule has Section III: Residence and Section VIII: Rural-Urban Background which are not found in the town/village or farm schedules. While the latter two do not have any unique entire sections they do contain more complete information on clothing expenses (Section XVIII of the town/village form and Section XVII of the farm form) and Furnishings and Equipment (Section XVII of the town/village form and Section XVI of the farm form) than is found in corresponding sections of the urban form (see Sections XVIII and XXII). In addition, the food expense section of the town/village and farm schedules contains a series of XX questions on 'food canned at home during the schedule year' which is unique to these two forms. The four-page food and furnishings consumption and expenditure schedule as well as both the female and male clothing schedules are common to all families. Data from the former appears at the end of each family data record following information from the income and general expenditure schedules. Because of their size and possible number, all of the detailed clothing schedules are compiled in a separate data file of their own which will appear at a later date.

In this example, there are no missing data codes Alternative statements for other variables are "MD=9999999," or "MD=0." Some analysis software packages require that certain types of data which the user desires to be excluded from analysis be designated as "MISSING DATA," e.g., inappropriate, unascertained, unascertainable, or ambiguous data categories. Although these codes are defined as missing data categories, this does not mean that the user should not or cannot use them in a substantive role if so desired.

In this example the variable named "ICPSR STATE CODE" is two columns wide and is located in the first column within the record. [5] A variable containing data with implied decimals is denoted by the message "IMP DEC= 0," where 0 is the number of decimal places implied in the variable. [6] This is the full text (question) supplied by the investigator to describe the variable.

[9] Indicates the textual definitions of the codes. XXIII ICPSR PROCESSING INFORMATION This data collection was processed according to the standard ICPSR processing procedures. The data were checked for illegal or inconsistent code values which, when found, were recoded to OSIRIS missing data values. No consistency checks were performed. Statements bracketed in "<" and ">" signs in the body of the codebook were added by the processors for explanatory purposes. As mentioned previously, interviewed families who participated in both the income and expenditure portions of the Study of Consumer Purchases (Parts 3 and 4) did not always complete all schedule forms. Some records in these two parts, therefore, contain blanks for all variables of any schedule type if that information is missing. Because of inconsistencies and incomplete information in the original schedules, variables which refer to the age of household members in the clothing expense section of the expenditure schedules (Part XVIII in the town/village schedule and Part XVII in the farm schedule; Variables 1149-1156 in Parts 3 and 4) do not correspond to similar variables regarding household composition found at the beginning of each data file. Users should consult Variables 21, 24, 29, 34, 39, 44, 49, 54, 59, 64, 67, and 71 for ages of all family members. XXIV APPENDIX Glossary of Terms Used in the Family Schedule The following information appears in Appendices to Reports of the Bureau of Labor Statistics on family income based on the Study of Consumer Purchases of 1935-1936. This extract appears in the BULLETIN OF THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF LABOR, BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS, No. 649, pp. 278-286, 1939. I. Year Covered by the Schedule Information The information on family composition, income, and occupation pertains to the situation of the family over a yearly period, sometimes referred to on the tables as the "report year" or "schedule year." The family was asked to choose the period for which it could give the more accurate information; either the 1935 calendar year or the 12 months ending on the last day of the month immediately preceding the date of interview... II. Family Composition--The Economic Family Since family income and other family characteristics refer to the economic family, it is important to have the definitions of this group clearly in mind. The economic family is defined as a group of persons belonging to the same household and dependent upon a common income. In most cases the members of the economic family were related by blood, marriage, or adoption. Persons thus related and either living under the same roof or eating at least two meals daily with the family and whose income could be determined were considered members. Thus adult sons and daughters living in the household were regarded as members of the economic family, provided that their income could be determined, even though they paid a stipulated amount for room and board instead of pool[ing] their earnings. Related persons whose homes were with members of the economic family and who were dependent on the economic family for at at least 75 percent of their support were XXV considered members even though they were away at school or in an institution. Persons who were usually members of the economic family but who had been in an institution at no expense to the family for a period of a month or less at some time during the schedule year were considered members of the economic family away from home. If they were in an institution without expense to the family for more than a month continuously during the year, they were members of the economic family only during that part of the year which they spent at home. Persons not related but living together and pooling all of their earnings or receiving all of their support from the family fund (i.e., dependent on a common income) were considered members of an economic family. In an economic family consisting of more than one married couple, the oldest married male was designated as the head, or husband. It is always his wife who is referred to on the tables as "wife." III. Other Members of the Household The household includes, in addition to the members of the economic family, all persons who lived in the family home for 1 week or longer during the schedule year and who were not dependent upon the common income, and did not pool their income. These other members of the household might be roomers, boarders, tourists, transients, guests, or paid help living in the home. 1. SONS AND DAUGHTERS BOARDING AND ROOMING.--Adult sons and daughters of members of the economic family were classified as roomers and boarders only if it was impossible to ascertain their income. When their income could be determined they were members of the economic family even though they paid for room and board rather than pooled their incomes. 2. OTHER ROOMERS WITH BOARD.--Roomers who slept in the home and paid for their rooms were classified as roomers with board if they regularly took one or more meals daily in the home. 3. ROOMERS WITHOUT BOARD.--Roomers who took no meals with the family were included in this category. Adult sons and daughters who roomed but did not board with the family were classified as roomers without board if they were not members of the economic family. XXVI 4. BOARDERS WITHOUT ROOM.--Persons who took one or more meals daily in the home and paid for their board, but did not live in the household, were considered as boarders. (The number of equivalent weeks during which they were boarders was computed on the basis of 21 meals per week.) 5. TOURISTS OR TRANSIENTS.--Classed as tourists or transients were persons who roomed and/or boarded in the home for less than a week, and who paid for such accommodations. Only families having tourists or transients for a total of 1 week or more during the year, were classified as households with such members. 6. GUESTS.--Persons related or unrelated who were not members of the economic family, but who lived in the household one or more nights without payment for rent or food, were guests. The time spent in the household by all guests must total more than 1 week before the family was classified as one having guests. When a person described by the family as a guest remained in the household for 26 weeks or longer, without making payment for room or board, an attempt was made to determine this person's income so that he might be classified as a member of the economic family. 7. PAID HELP LIVING IN.--All servants sleeping under the family roof or in dwelling quarters provided free by the family were included in this category. IV. Home Ownership Home ownership refers to the ownership of the home by any member of the economic family. To make possible the computation of nonmoney income from home ownership, information was obtained on the number of months during which the family occupied an owned home, the family's estimate of the monthly rental value, and the amount of interest incurred during occupancy of a mortgaged home. Because of the desirability of keeping the family schedule interview as brief as possible, no detailed information was obtained during this interview on expenses other than interest, which is usually the major expense of an owned home. RENT AS PAY.--If the family lived for all or part of the year in a dwelling furnished as part of wages or salary (as in the case of a parsonage furnished to a minister or an XXVII apartment furnished to a janitor), the estimated monthly rental value and the number of months rent was received as pay were written on the schedule. The value of rent received as pay was later included in computing total family income. RENT AS GIFT.--If the family occupied a home owned by a relative or a friend on a rent-free basis during the year, when it had no home of its own, the number of months so occupied, and the estimated rental value of such residence were included in the agent's notes attached to the schedule, but the rental value was not included in the computation of total income. VI. Living Quarters Occupied Information on the type of living quarters relates to those quarters occupied at the date of interview but was tabulated only for those families which did not move between the end of the schedule year and the date of interview. Of the types specified on the schedule the dwelling unit in a business building and the "other" types have special meaning in this study. 4-h. DWELLING UNIT IN BUSINESS BUILDING was a dwelling in a structure used also for business purposes. A building used for both dwelling and business was considered a business building if a third or more of the floor space (not counting the basement) was used for business. 4-k. OTHER included living quarters over a private garage, a housekeeping apartment in an institution, rooms without housekeeping facilities in a hotel; the classification "other" on the tables includes also the rooms with another family or in a rooming house (4-i and 4-j). Since the sampling method was designed to select householders, schedules were obtained from very few families having rooms without housekeeping facilities in a hotel or with another family, or in a rooming house. These schedules were obtained only in the comprehensive sample [families interviewed regardless of whether or not they met the "eligibility" criteria required to complete the family schedule]. XXVIII VIII. Money Earnings From Employment EMPLOYMENT.--Employment was any work for which persons while members of the economic family normally received, or expected to receive, money as compensation for services. Persons who had worked during the year but whose losses exceeded or equalled earnings were regarded as employed. Employment on work-relief projects was considered as gainful employment and money earnings from such sources were included in income. STATUS OF WORKER.--To facilitate coding of an individual's occupation, the symbol "s" was used for salaried workers and all wage earners; "o" for persons working on their own account; and "x" to indicate that employment was on a work-relief project. To determine status of certain workers, such as carpenters, dressmakers, etc., who represent borderline cases between wage earners and independent businessmen, it was necessary to set up the following qualifications, ONE OR MORE of which the person classified as in independent business must meet: (1) The investment of either his own or borrowed capital in his business, as in a truck, stock of materials, shop, or special equipment for his place of business, which might be in the home (the tools of a workman such as he would need in his capacity as a wage earner were not considered a capital investment); (2) the taking of business risks; (3) the employment of others to work for him in his own business; (4) the production of goods on the chance of finding a purchaser. A person was considered as on work relief if he was required to demonstrate to the public or private agency granting the work that he had insufficient means to support his family according to the standards adopted by the agency concerned. Educational aid received by students under N.Y.A. [National Youth Administration] and F.E.R.A. [Federal Emergency Relief Administration], to permit them to complete their education, was not considered work relief. NET MONEY EARNINGS.--The earnings entered on the family schedule were net earnings and were money earnings exclusively. Included in money earnings were all commissions, tips, and bonuses which were received during the schedule year. Money earnings of persons working on their own account represented the salary for profits drawn from the business for family use. XXIX The following expenses were considered occupational expense and as such were deducted from gross earnings in arriving at net earnings; Union dues and fees; business and professional association dues; expense for technical books and journals directly related to the person's occupation; room rent paid out of family funds while a member was working away from home; the portion of operating expense for business use of automobile not covered by an expense account; and expense for workmen's tools which are frequently replaced. The following items were not considered to be occupational expenses and consequently were not deducted from gross earnings: Clothing worn at work and food eaten at work; amounts deducted from pay checks for health and life insurance, retirement funds, etc.; and transportation to and from work. Overhead expenses such as rent for business premises, office supplies, telephone, and large sums expended for tools and equipment which are in the nature of capital outlays, were treated as business expense rather than as occupational expense. The agent, with the cooperation of the family, deducted such business expenses from the earnings figure before entering it on the schedule. TIME EMPLOYED.--Time employed, as entered on the schedule, represents the number of hours, days, weeks, or months during which the person had some employment. The unit chosen for reporting the length of time employed was usually the unit by which the individual was paid. When the length of time was reported in hours or days, it was reduced, for purposes of analysis, to equivalent weeks by using a 5-day or 40-hour week as the basis... WORK NOT ATTRIBUTE TO INDIVIDUALS--INCOME FORM ROOMERS AND BOARDERS AND FROM WORK IN THE HOME.--Although the schedule form provided for the entry of gross income from roomers and boarders and income from other work not attributable to individuals (CASUAL WORK IN THE HOME) under "other money income," in the analysis or tabulation of this item, net income from roomers and boarders and income from work in the home were considered as earnings. Income from work in the home which was irregular in nature was classified on the schedule as "other money income"; had the work been regular, it would have been shown originally under earnings. XXX IX. Other Money Income This consisted of money income from sources other than earnings, which was available for the current use of the family during the schedule year. The value of income received in kind was not obtained in this survey. Direct relief or relief in kind, the eligibility for which was determined by a means test, was not included as other money income. Some other items not included in the money income figure are enumerated later on. The components of other money income are: 3. INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS.--Only amounts received as interest and dividends from stocks, bonds, bank accounts, trust funds, etc., which could be drawn in cash for family use were reported on this schedule. Dividends received from paid-up insurance policies were also included in this category. If, however, these dividends were reinvested in the insurance policies they would not be reported. 4. PROFITS.--Net profits drawn from a business owned, but not managed, by the family were included as other money income. Profits drawn for family use from a business which was actively managed by the family were included under earnings. 5. RENTS FROM PROPERTY.--Net rents from property owned by the family were computed by deducting current expenses on the property from the gross rental income. Expenses for improvements or additions to the property or for payments on the principal of the mortgage were considered an investment and as such were not deducted from gross rent. When the family owned a multifamily dwelling, occupying a portion of it and renting the remainder, only the proportion of the expenses which was applicable to the tenants' share of the home was deducted from rental receipts in arriving at net income from rents. 6. PENSIONS, ANNUITIES, BENEFITS.--This included amounts received from veterans' pensions, pensions from employers, income from annuities, compensation under workmen's compensation laws, unemployment benefits from trade-unions, and benefits from sickness and accident XXXI insurance. Income from old-age pensions, mothers' pensions, and pensions for the blind, which are paid by local and Federal Governments only after demonstration of need, was not included in other money income. The receipt of such income classified a family with other families receiving relief. 7. GIFTS IN CASH.--Included here are only those gifts in cash which were for current use of the family and which were made by persons other than members of the economic family. Amounts received from relief agencies and the cash evaluation of income received in kind were not considered gifts in cash. 7-a. MONEY INCOME FROM OTHER SOURCES.--Income received from sources other than those specified above was classified in this category. Such sources are: Money found or received as a prize or as a reward for finding a lost article, alimony, net gains from gambling, net income from the sale of home-produced foods; amounts received from the Government when members of the family are at C.C.C. [Civilian Conservation Corps] camps, that amount of the soldiers' bonus which was spent for current living, and money earned prior to the schedule year and received during the schedule year. ITEMS NOT INCLUDED IN INCOME.--Some items which are commonly considered money income were not covered by the Study of Consumer Purchases because it was impossible in a survey of this sort to ascertain the amount of certain types of income. The procedures used in the study excluded the following sources of income: That share of profits to individuals participating in an entrepreneurial business, partnership, syndicate, or pool which was not withdrawn for family use; profits received from sales or exchanges of capital assets (real estate, stocks, bonds, investments in business and other property), unless such transactions constituted the primary occupation of some member of the family; interest and dividends from stocks, bonds, bank accounts, trust funds, etc., which had accrued, but had not been received into the family funds; direct relief in cash or in kind; the value of income in kind, except income from owned homes; money received in a lump sum as a bequest or a gift in cash which was not used for current expenses. Withdrawals from assets, borrowings, and other nonincome receipts were not covered on the family schedule. 8. LOSSES IN BUSINESS.--Classified here are only those XXXII net losses from real estate operations or other businesses during the year which were met from the family income, by an increase in the family's liabilities, or by a decrease in its assets. Among the cases included are those in which the actual expense for real estate held by any member of the economic family exceeded the actual income, and cases in which traveling expenses for business purposes exceeded the allowance provided by employers for such expenses... Apparently the losses in business which were reported by families were for the most part not entrepreneurial, but were instead losses incurred in the rental of owned property, etc. Although an entrepreneur might actually have had a net business loss for the year, any withdrawals from his business to support his family were considered as family income. When withdrawals from the family fund to meet business losses exceeded the contribution to the family income, families were classified as having suffered business losses for the enterprise in question. 10 and 11. RELIEF.--The family was classified as having received relief if at any time during the schedule year any member of the family received aid from a public or private agency and if, to prove eligibility for such aid, it was usually necessary to pass a means test. The inclusion as "relief families," of families who had received relief for as short a period as one day, and who may have had relatively high incomes during part of the schedule year, accounts for occasional relief families in the higher income brackets. Since occasionally churches and other organizations give support by a regular allotment to members who would otherwise have to apply for relief, or to members who are ineligible for public relief, such cash allotments were considered relief even though the family was not required to submit to a formal means test. The study covers a period during which first F.E.R.A. and then W.P.A. [Works Progress Administration] administered work relief. In most cities there was a lag between the separation of clients from F.E.R.A. work projects and their placement on W.P.A. work projects in the fall of 1935. During this lag, families were commonly carried on direct relief in cash or in kind. As a rule relief families distinguished F.E.R.A. from W.P.A. by the fact that the allotment from the latter was based on the occupational classification of the workers, while the former relief set-up budgeted the family on the basis of number and age of members. Families with members who had worked on P.W.A. [sic] [i.e., W.P.A.] projects were considered relief XXXIII families only if their assignment to such projects was dependent upon the passing of a means test. Families of students who received educational aid under N.Y.A. and F.E.R.A., permitting them to complete their education, were not classified as relief families if this was the only aid received. Families with members attending C.C.C. camps were not classified as having received work relief unless some other members of the families had been assigned to a project. Persons in C.C.C. camps were not members of the economic family during their stay in camp and, consequently, the C.C.C. work was not shown as employment. C.C.C. enrollment was not in itself sufficient grounds for considering a family as on relief. In view of an executive order of April 1935, however, which instructed that men be sent to C.C.C. camps only from families on relief, it is apparent that the large majority of families with members in C.C.C. camps were also in the relief classification. No figures on the amount of direct relief received in cash or in kind were requested from families. Earnings on work-relief projects were included with earnings from other sources, although families receiving work relief were classified with families receiving direct relief rather than with the nonrelief families.
