This document is a preliminary version of the NLSY97 round 19 young adult questionnaire. It contains few
explanatory notes and is mainly intended for the use of survey staff and experienced NLS researchers. This version
of the questionnaire represents the content of the interview as written at the beginning of the field period. Instrument
testing and use in the field may necessitate some adjustments, which will be reflected in the final version of the
questionnaire released in conjunction with the data set.

Introduction

I. INTRODUCTION
This document contains the paper version of the 2000 questionnaire of the NLSY79 Young Adult cohort. The
dominant interview mode for the Young Adult portion of the NLSY79 was Computer-Assisted Telephone Interview
(CATI), with a smaller percentage of Computer-Assisted Personal Interviews (CAPI) than in past NLSY79 Young
Adult (YA) rounds.
Using information gathered in previous interviews, text fills and skips, we have tried to minimize error while
presenting detailed questions personally tailored to each respondent. Our goal in this document is to make the
content of the interview schedule as comprehensible as possible by producing a clear, complete, and compact paper
copy of all possible questionnaire paths. With this in mind, the paper version of the 2000 Young Adult CATI/CAPI
questionnaire has been formatted as similarly as possible to a traditional paper questionnaire (PAPI). Additional
information is included to make the computer-driven choices and paths as clear as possible for data users.
The resulting document accurately summarizes the conversation” between the interviewer and respondent. We use
the term conversationto emphasize the difference between the questionnaire and the codebook. The codebook
contains the data released as a result of the interview, but some information collected during the interview is not
present in the codebook. For example, the questionnaire includes questions that collect names of household
members, employers, etc. Such items are not released, so the questions that collect them are not present in the
codebook. Conversely, the codebook contains some information not directly collected in the interview. For
example, while created variables are documented in the codebook, there is no reference to them in the questionnaire
as they are not part of the conversation between interviewer and respondent.
In order to simplify the questionnaire and the public use data file, we have dropped a number of time variables from
which elapsed time can be calculated (time stamps). A time stamp appears at the beginning of each major section of
the questionnaire. Other time stamps have been placed around various sets of questions. Elapsed time may be very
useful for a variety of methodological studies. If you are interested in these data, please contact CHRR for additional
information. Suggestions for improving the questionnaire or comments on irregularities should also be directed to
CHRR User Services.
To aid researchers in using the questionnaire, this introduction provides information on several topics. Typical
question blocks are described and key terms such as “Distribution Code Block,” “Lead in Questions,and Save
Arrays.are defined. The section below explains how to follow the flow of the interview through the questionnaire,
and clarifies the instrument compression techniques that have helped us to produce a concise questionnaire

Types and Formats of Question Blocks

II. TYPES AND FORMATS OF QUESTION BLOCKS
Question records are the building blocks of the CAPI questionnaire, with various types of records performing
different data collection and/or manipulation functions. Loosely grouped, CAPI question records will: (a) provide
administrative information that assists the interviewer or provides an introduction to the next question; (b) provide
question text and control for data entry of the response; or (c) perform internal operations and calculations to guide
the interview and maintain the internal data storage during the interview. All question records essential to
understanding either the content of the survey or the flow of respondents through the interview will appear within the
2000 NLSY79 Young Adult paper questionnaire.
In order to provide a more succinct questionnaire, the instrument was compressed by eliminating question records
that contained information that was nonessential to understanding the skip patterns in the questionnaire. Examples of
the type of dropped questions include internal time stamps, questions establishing appropriate text fills, and questions
saving a text version of a numeric answer for use later in the questionnaire. The 2000 Young Adult CAPI instrument
included over 2000 numbered question records, only some of which are essential to understanding the action content
and conversational flow of the survey. The process of dropping nonessential records and then changing the lead in
and next question specifications so that the skip pattern does not have any gaps is referred to as skip pattern
compression.” The resulting questionnaire still contains all relevant information about skip patterns and universes
and is easier for researchers to use.
Two types of question blocks appear in the paper version of the CATI/CAPI questionnaire: (1) question blocks that
appear on the computer screen for the interviewer to respond to [ all of record types (a) and (b) above] and (2)
question blocks that do not appear but direct respondents down particular survey paths [some but not all of record
type (c) above]. Figure 1 shows an example of a typical question block that might appear to the interviewer. Figure
2 shows an example of a typical question block that governs a skip internally but does not appear. Each question
block contains a question name as well as some question text, either for the interviewer to read aloud or silently or to
instruct the computer as to what actions to perform. The question text may contain save arrays” which appear as
bracketed text. Because of the importance of save arrays to the functionality of the CATI/CAPI survey, they are
discussed at length below. Each question block also includes an indication of the lead-in questions and any
subsequent branching involved if an answer sends a respondent to a question other than the very next one. Question
blocks that appear to the interviewer and require an answer from the respondent also contain either a distribution
code block showing available answer choices or a graphic indicating the type of answer entered. These components
are explained in the following paragraphs.

Figure 2. CAPI Question Block Not Appearing to Interviewer
A. QUESTION NAME
The question name appears on the first line of each question block. Question names are the unique identifiers
assigned to identical questions across CAPI survey years. Question names provide information on: (a) the section of
the instrument from which each question was derivede.g., question names beginning with Q2- come from the
Family Backgroundsection of the questionnaire, while Q11- questions come from the “Training section; and (b)
the order in which the question was administered within each section. Previous and subsequent NLSY79 Young
Adult CAPI surveys that field this exact question will use the same question name to help identify comparable
questions across years.
Example: Q3-2 This question comes from the “Dating and Relationship Historysection of the
questionnaire, which is usually the third section. As modules are added or dropped the number of
sections in an interview changes; however, the original section number is maintained to make
finding comparable questions across rounds easier. The 2” only suggests its original position;
sometimes questions 1a, 1b, 1c, etc. may be inserted between 1 and 2, and sometimes questions are
dropped or reordered.
In many sections of the questionnaire, a series of questions is asked more than once but about a different target; for
example, the same set of questions is asked about each household member or about each employer the respondent has
had since the date of last interview. We refer to this kind of question series as a loop.In the 1994 and 1996 Young
Adult CAPI surveys, loops were hard coded, and loop extensions were part of the actual question name.
Beginning in 1998 and continuing in the 2000 questionnaire, loops were programmed to be dynamic with only one
set of original question records created. The CATI/CAPI survey system continues to ask a set of questions in a
looped series until a specified condition is met, appending an incremented loop counter to the question name each
time the series is looped through. These loop counters are present as part of the question name in the codebook;
however, the questionnaire contains no loop counters in question names.
Looped sections begin with a “REPEAT” command and end with an “UNTIL” command. Most “REPEAT”
commands occur in questions containing the words LOOP-BEGINas part of the question name, and most
“UNTIL” commands occur in questions containing the words LOOP-ENDas part of the question name. The
information in parentheses after the “REPEAT” and “UNTIL” commands provides the user with information
concerning the purpose of the loop and the criteria for exiting the loop. For example, the question Q3-LOOP-BEGIN
contains the question text “REPEAT ([loop collection information about spouse/partners]).” Question Q3-LOOP-
END contains the question text “UNTIL ([loop collection information about spouse/partners]=[number of members
on the partner roster]).” Together these questions instruct the survey program to ask all necessary questions between
these two questions for as many spouse/partners as were listed on the roster collected in question Q3-5-A.
If the same question was asked in 1994, and again in 1996, it will have the same question name. Similarly, if the
same question was asked in 1998, and again in 2000, it will have the same question name. However, the conversion
from a DOS-based survey program to a Windows-based survey program for 1998 made maintaining exact question
names possible only in non-looped areas. Items repeated in 1994, 1996, 1998 and 2000 in non-looped areas continue
to have the same question names in most sections, although the transition was imperfect. In looped areas, as much of

the original question name as possible was retained. For example, in the Employer Supplements, what was QES1-
71A in 1994 and 1996 becomes QES-71A.01 in 1998 and 2000. Remember that in the questionnaire, QES-71A
appears as the question name, with the loop extension .01 appearing in the codebook. Maintaining question names as
much as possible makes it easier for the user to link identical items across these rounds.
B. QUESTION TEXT
This field contains the text of the question that the interviewer asked the respondent or other information used to
direct the flow of the interview. The following types of text may appear:
Question text? Text that is asked of the respondent appears in a conventional mixture of
upper and lowercase letters. This kind of question text is present in
Figure 1.
(COMMENTS TO Text in all uppercase is either an instruction to the interviewer or a
INTERVIEWER:) clarifying comment. NORC interviewers do not read these items to the
respondent. This kind of question text is present in Figure 1.
Internal Code; When a question record contains a machine instruction, that instruction
is printed in this field. Such instructions end with a semi-colon. These
instructions are accompanied by internal comments as described below.
This kind of question text is present in Figure 2.
/* comments */ Internal comments that explain what a machine instruction does are set
off by a leading /*and a trailing */.” These comments explain the
function being performed by the internal code so that persons unfamiliar
with the command syntax can follow the interview protocol. This kind
of question text is present in Figure 2.
C. SAVE ARRAYS
Save arraysare fields in which information is stored. Each such field, or save array, is assigned a name. For
example, the name of the respondents current employer would be stored in the EMPLOYER.NAME(1)save array
for use during the interview. This save array nameis then used to reference and access the data in the save array
field during the actual operation of the survey. Each time a question refers to the current employer, the computer
automatically inserts the name of the employer into the question. Information stored in save arrays is used:
a) as part of the actual text of survey questions (e.g. the name of a given household member, child,
employer, types of training programs, different sources of income for household members);
b) to govern paths through the questionnaire. The save array field is accessed, and the content (or
absence of content) is checked. The path through the questionnaire is determined based upon the
information in the save array field;
c) as elements in equations and calculations which are used to produce new pieces of information
which may be used later in the instrument.
When used in a question text, save arrays are similar to the text fills used in the PAPI NLS interviews. These text
fills indicated that the interviewer should substitute a given word or phrase into the question at the time of the
interview so it read correctly. For example, in a printed PAPI questionnaire one would often see Since (DATE OF
LAST INTERVIEW) have you; this phrase would instruct the interviewer to insert the actual date for a given
respondent. However, correctly inserting such text fills was the job of the interviewer and often involved flipping
between pages.
One immediate difference in the CATI/CAPI questionnaire is that there are far more text fills, and most of them are
automated or handled by the computer. Some CATI/CAPI text fills are identical to those used in the PAPI
interviews, such as he/she to handle gender fills. The major new feature is the automation of the text fills through
NLSY79 Young Adult Round 19
?
Types and Formats of Question Blocks
v
the save arrays. In the date of last interview example, the computer code in the CAPI questionnaire would
automatically insert that date into the question. The interviewer never actually sees the text [Date of last
interview]on the screen, only the date stored in that location.
In this questionnaire, text fills which refer to a save array are represented by bracketed text describing what piece of
information is substituted in the interview. Question blocks governing internal skips also contain save arrays with a
verbal description of the content of each save array in bracketed text. Although neither the text fills nor these internal
questions are ever seen by an interviewer, researchers can use this information to follow the flow of the interview.
D. DISTRIBUTION CODE BLOCK
When a question requires the choice of one or more items from a predefined list, that list, or distribution code block,
is shown in the question block. This type of question is used as the example in Figure 1. Each item in the
distribution code block has three components:
Code: The numeric code associated with each possible response is listed first. All data
in the NLSY79 Young Adult public use data file are numeric, so each possible
item that could be selected is associated with an integer.
Text: Next is the item text or description of the code, such as Yes or No. As a general
rule, if the descriptions are in all capital letters, the interviewer codes without
reading the categories out loud. If the descriptions are mixed case, the
interviewer generally reads the categories aloud. However, in 2000, some
questions have additional interviewer instructions telling the interviewer to read
the categories only if necessary. This approach was taken to facilitate the
telephone interview mode.
Skip: When the selection of a specific response determines which question will be
asked next, a (GO TO QK-nn) notation follows the response text, where K refers
to the section number and nn refers to the question number within that section.
If no explicit skip is given for a category, then that answer goes to the next
physical question listed in the questionnaire.
E. DATA ENTRY GRAPHICS
When a question requires the interviewer to record a text or numeric answer provided by the respondent, the paper
version indicates some information about the entry required. For example, on questions asking about specific dates,
the graphic in the paper questionnaire lets the user quickly determine whether month, day and year are asked or
month and year only. Similarly, for questions where the numeric answer is continuous, the graphic provided will
indicate how many digits are allowed and whether or not a decimal answer is allowed. For some questions that
collect numeric data (hours, weeks, dollar amounts, etc.), the question block contains additional information below
the graphic indicating ranges of answers. This is present whenever the next question to be asked depends upon the
numeric value falling in some range. However, the interviewer would actually enter the exact number provided by
the respondent and this exact number would be recorded in the data set.

F. LEAD IN QUESTIONS
When using PAPI questionnaires, researchers needed to study the instrument in detail to determine under what
circumstances a particular question was asked. The CAPI questionnaire simplifies this process somewhat by
including a Lead in(s)field in the question block. This field lists the questions that lead into each particular item.
Examples:
Q2-31b:[default] This means that the default path from question Q2-31b leads to the
current question, but there may be conditions under which a different
path would be taken.
Q2-31b:[all] This means that all cases in which Q2-31b is asked will lead to the
current question. Please note this does not imply all respondents are
asked question Q2-31b.
Q2-31b:[1:4] This means that whenever the response category for question Q2-31b
takes on the values one to four (inclusive), the next question will be the
current question record. If the response to Q2-31b is some other value,
the respondent may next be asked a different question.
Q2-31b When the lead in question is shown without a qualifier such as
[Default], [All], or [1.4], this is a sign that the skip pattern
compressionalgorithm dropped intervening records that could be
suppressed (see Instrument Compression” below). In such cases, if the
user refers back to the lead in question, this earlier question will clarify
the flow of the interview.
By tracing the skip pattern backward, one may determine the universe of respondents asked a given question. This
universe information is a new feature not present in the documentation for paper and pencil interviews.

ATTACHMENT 5: ELECTRONIC QUESTION BY
QUESTION SPECIFICATIONS
FOR THE NLSY79 YA CAPI QUESTIONNAIRE

INTRODUCTION
In a computer-assisted personal interview (CAPI), interviewers have ready access to general and specific
instructions that guide them in the administration of the electronic questionnaire. These help screens
replace the traditional hard copy question-by-question instructions provided to interviewers for a paper-
and-pencil interview.
This section contains the help screens available in the CAPI questionnaire for the 2000 NLSY79 Young
Adult survey. These help screens were physically linked to the appropriate questions in the CAPI
instrument and were available electronically to the interviewer during the administration of the survey. To
assist the reader, this introduction provides an interpretation of the different types of information contained
in the screen blocks.
The first line in each help screen block indicates the name of that help screen. Following the help screen
name is a header containing the name of the first question in the instrument to which that help screen is
attached, as well as a brief verbal description of the question. Users may wish to note that this header line
does not appear to the interviewer at any time. The name is then followed by the actual text of the help
screen that would be seen by the interviewer. Finally, the “Related Questionssection indicates all survey
questions to which that help screen is attached.

Header: Q4-1: Reglr School-Generl (Page 1 of 3)
A "regular school" is one which gives credit towards an academic diploma or degree, such as an elementary
school, junior high school, middle school, high school, (junior/community) college or university.
Certain courses at special schools and programs in such areas as applied technologies (e.g., data
processing) and nursing sciences do grant credits which can be applied towards a regular academic diploma
or degree. Consider these programs "regular school." In general, however, these special schools give
certificates rather than diplomas or degrees; they will be dealt with later during the interview.
EXAMPLE: If R is attending a community college to earn an Associate's Degree and is taking classes in
computer programming, the classes would be considered regular school. If the R is attending a
vocational/technical institute to earn a computer programmer's certificate and is taking classes in computer
programming, the classes would not be considered regular school.
Consider R to be "attending" if s/he is taking courses that can be applied toward an academic degree, even
if s/he is not formally enrolled or taking the course for credit. Do not include courses taken to prepare for
the GED.
Rs on summer vacation are considered enrolled. In ambiguous cases, consider R to be enrolled if s/he
intends to return to school (has not dropped out or formally left). In these cases, code the grade that R will
be enrolled in.

If the R has obtained his/her B.A or B.S. and is currently enrolled in his/her first year of graduate school,
code "5th year of college" regardless of whether s/he is working toward a Master's or Ph.D. degree.
If R is taking college courses informally at what we would consider a regular school and is unsure at what
year in college s/he would be, probe for the number of semester hours or quarter hours he completed. Then
code accordingly:
Semester hours: Quarter hours:
1st year: less than 30 less than 45
2nd year: 30 - 59 45 - 89
3rd year: 60 - 89 90 - 134

good job or preferred to work. Make sure the distinction is made that the R was CHOOSING to
work; if the R needed to work or could not afford classes, you would select "Financial difficulities,

the 12th grade. Therefore, it is necessary to ask ALL respondents this question.
A "regular school" is one which gives credit towards an academic diploma or degree, such as an elementary

Get as accurate a description of the business or industry as you can. Probe for clarity. Avoid the use of the
word "company" as it gives no useful information.
ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS TO HELP THE R: If the R reports that s/he works for a metal furniture
company, ask,"Do they manufacture it or do they just sell it?" If they sell, ask, "Do they sell to
other stores, (which would be wholesale), or to individuals, (retail)?"
COMPANIES WITH MORE THAN ONE BUSINESS: Some companies are engaged in more than one
business or industrial activity. If the activities are carried on in separate places, describe the
business in which the R actually worked. If the activities are carried on in the same place,
describe the major activity of that company in that location.
BUSINESSES IN OWN HOME: Some people conduct their businesses right in their own homes. Report
these businesses as you would report regular business establishments. For example: radio repair
shop, dressmaker shop, catering business, etc.
DOMESTIC AND OTHER PRIVATE HOUSEHOLD WORKERS: When an R works for a single
individual, the name of the employer is given in a previous Q.; then find out whether the R works

employed in the home of another person is "private home."

Header: QES-55H: Kind of work R does/did
In this question we were talking about the one employer being referred in this employer supplement. If R
performed two different duties for the same employer (e.g. worked as waitress and supervised staff), probe
to determine R spent more than 50 percent of his/her time last week on one duty or the other. If R did
spend more than 50 percent of the time on one duty get a description of that duty only. If R split his/her
hours equally between the two duties, ask this series about both duties.
Self-employed: When a R is self-employed, do not enter "manager" as the occupation UNLESS the R
actually spends most of his/her time in the management of the business. If the R spends most of his/her
time in the trade or craft of the business, enter that trade or craft (beautician, dentist, etc.)
Avoid occupation entries that describe departments of places of work: The occupation entry should
describe what the person does (for example, shipping department supervisor, inventory clerk) not where
they work ("works in the shipping department," "works in the warehouse").
Apprentice vs. trainee: Include both the occupation and the word "trainee" or "apprentice" in the
description (for example "apprentice plumber").
Machinist vs. Machine operator vs. mechanic: A machinist is a skilled craftsman who constructs metal
parts, tools, and machines through the use of blueprints, machine and hand tools, and precise measuring
instruments. A machine operator runs a factory machine, and a mechanic inspects, services, repairs, or
overhauls machinery.
For difficult to code occupations, use these suggested probes:
OCCUPATION: SUGGESTED PROBE:
Assembler: What do you assemble? (examples: cars, electric motors)
Clerk: What type of clerk are you? (examples: accounting, shipping)
Engineer: What kind of engineer are you? (examples: civil, electrical)
Inspector: What types of things do you inspect? (examples: cars, houses)
