Early Release Data

Recently collected data are available in early release ZIP files below. ZIP files contain SAS data files and basic documentation. All data are subject to change during data processing. Final, edited data are released through the Data Center. If no early release files are listed below, all current data have been released in their final form.

YEAR  FILE NAME VERSION
2014  Child Development Supplement - Polygenic Score Files Release 1
Three CDS-2014 early release data files contains 27 polygenic scores separately for three ancestry groups: African, European, and other.

Each file also includes three global genetic principal components, an indicator of the assigned ancestry group derived from the genetic principal components, and a race/ethnicity variable constructed using the PSID survey data.

The files include a pair of ID variables that identifies CDS-2014 households and each individual’s roster position within their CDS-2014 household. These variables allow users to merge polygenic scores with data from CDS-2014 and PSID using the procedures described in the CDS-2014 User Guide to Genomic Data.

The CDS-2014 polygenic files include a total of 2,513 observations.

For more information about the CDS-2014 genomic data, please see the User Guide to Genomic Data.

2021  Transition into Adulthood Supplement Release 2
The TAS-2021 Early Release ZIP file contains a single SAS data set and a copy of the box-and-arrow questionnaire. The SAS file includes all public release data collected except for data about employment. These files are *preliminary* and observations and values may change before final and complete files are released later. The TAS-2021 Early Release records can be merged with data from prior waves of CDS, TAS, and Core PSID using variables describing the family ID, ID68, and person number, PN; these variables are available as TAS21ID68 and TAS21PN in TAS-2021. These TAS-2021 records can be merged with Core 2019 PSID using TAS21YRID19 and TAS21SN19.

The project is sponsored by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver  National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.
