The NLSY97
The NLSY97 consists of a nationally representative sample of
approximately 9,000 youths who were 12 to 16 years old as of December 31,
1996. Round 1 of the survey took place in 1997. In that round, both the
eligible youth and one of that youth's parents received hour-long personal
interviews. Youths continue to be interviewed on an annual basis. [More]
