With Chandra Muller, Eric Grodsky, and Jennifer Manly I am conducting follow-up surveys of the High School and Beyond cohort.  These ~25,000 people were first interviewed in high school in 1980..  HS&B data - including a 2020-21 follow-up focused on the early-life predictors of cognitive impairment - provide leverage in understanding the roles of education, skills, and childhood social circumstances  in shaping work, health, and cognitive well-being at midlife.

The Wisconsin Longitudinal Study (WLS) has followed a cohort of 10,317 members of the Wisconsin high school class of 1957 and their families for more than half a century. In ongoing work I am (a) studying the impact of long-term survey participation on major life outcomes; (b) modeling the impacts of lifelong trajectories of work and family roles on health and well-being; and (c) linking WLS files to 1940 U.S. Census records to understand the long-term effects of neighborhood socioeconomic, geographic, and physical characteristics.

The Current Population Survey (CPS) is rarely used as a longitudinal data resource because necessary record linkage and data integration are unusually and prohibitively complicated.  With colleagues at MPC I am developing integrated data, dissemination software, and metadata that will make longitudinal analyses of CPS data radically easier.  We will provide researchers with flexible access to integrated and well-documented longitudinal data across all CPS surveys.

IPUMS-USA provides harmonized data on people in the U.S. census and American Community Survey, from 1850 to the present.  Using cutting-edge automatic record linkage technology and drawing on complete count U.S. census data available from IPUMS for the period 1850 to 1940, I am helping to construct millions of individual life histories and trace millions of families over multiple generations..  I am also working with colleagues to link 1940 Census records to the WLS, HRS, PSID, NSHAP, and NHATS.
