SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The National Longitudinal Survey of
Youth 1979 (NLSY79) is a
representative national sample of
persons who were born in the years
1957 to 1964 and lived in the U.S. in
1978. These respondents were ages 14 to
22 when the first round of interviews
began in 1979; they will be ages 45 to
54 when the planned twenty-fourth
round of interviews is conducted from
December 2009 to March 2011. The
NLSY79 was conducted annually from
1979 to 1994 and has been conducted
biennially since 1994. The longitudinal
focus of this survey requires information
to be collected from the same
individuals over many years in order to
trace their education, training, work
experience, fertility, income, and
program participation.
In addition to the main NLSY79, the
biological children of female NLSY79
respondents have been surveyed since
1986, when the National Institute of
Child Health and Human Development
began providing funding to the BLS to
gather a large amount of information
about the lives of these children. A
battery of child cognitive, socioemotional, and physiological
assessments has been administered
biennially since 1986 to NLSY79
mothers and their children. Starting in
VerDate Nov<24>2008
16:39 Apr 13, 2009
Jkt 217001
1994, children who had reached age 15
by December 31 of the survey year (the
Young Adults) were interviewed about
their work experiences, training,
schooling, health, fertility, self-esteem,
and other topics. The BLS contracts
with the National Opinion Research
Center (NORC) at the University of
Chicago to conduct the NLSY79 and
associated Child and Young Adult
surveys.
One of the goals of the Department of
Labor (DOL) is to produce and
disseminate timely, accurate, and
relevant information about the U.S.
labor force. The BLS contributes to this
goal by gathering information about the
labor force and labor market and
disseminating it to policymakers and
the public so that participants in those
markets can make more informed, and
thus more efficient, choices. Research
based on the NLSY79 contributes to the
formation of national policy in the areas
of education, training, employment
programs, and school-to-work
transitions. In addition to the reports
that the BLS produces based on data
from the NLSY79, members of the
academic community publish articles
and reports based on NLSY79 data for
the DOL and other funding agencies. To
date, more than 1,500 articles examining
NLSY79 data have been published in
scholarly journals. The survey design
provides data gathered from the same
respondents over time to form the only
data set that contains this type of
information for this important
population group. Without the
collection of these data, an accurate
longitudinal data set could not be
provided to researchers and
policymakers, thus adversely affecting
the DOL’s ability to perform its policyand report-making activities.
II. Current Action
The BLS seeks approval to conduct
the round 24 interviews of the NLSY79
and the associated surveys of biological
children of female NLSY79 respondents.
The NLSY79 Child Survey involves
three components:
• The Mother Supplement is
administered to female NLSY79
respondents who live with biological
children under age 15. This
questionnaire will be administered to
about 635 women, who will be asked a
series of questions about each child
under age 15. On average, these women
each have about 1.26 children under age
15, for a total of approximately 800
children.
• The Child Supplement involves
aptitude testing of about 720 children
under age 15.
PO 00000
Frm 00074
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
• The Child Self-Administered
Questionnaire is administered to
approximately 540 children ages 10 to
14.
In addition to the main NLSY79 and
Child Survey, the Young Adult Survey
will be administered to approximately
6,140 youths ages 15 and older who are
the biological children of female
NLSY79 respondents. These youths will
be contacted for an interview regardless
of whether they reside with their
mothers. The NLSY79 Young Adult
Survey involves two components:
• The Young Adult Survey involves
interviewing about 1,775 youths ages 15
to 20.
• The Young Adult Survey, grant
component, is administered to
approximately 4,365 youths age 21 and
older.
During the field period, about 400
main NLSY79 interviews are validated
to ascertain whether the interview took
place as the interviewer reported and
whether the interview was done in a
polite and professional manner.
The round 24 questionnaire reflects a
number of content changes
recommended by experts in various
social science fields. The round 24 main
NLSY79 questionnaire includes a more
extensive set of questions about
volunteer activity and monetary
donations to charitable organizations.
The round 24 survey also will include
retrospective questions on business
ownership. This new section augments
information previously collected in the
survey by asking how many businesses
respondents have owned since age 18
and collecting detailed information on
the characteristics of up to ten
businesses. Questions on estate
planning and wills will be asked in
round 24 to augment information
previously obtained on health, asset
accumulation, and retirement plans.
Round 24 includes a series of questions
on mortgage delinquencies and
foreclosures. The questions cover the
period since January 2007 and ask
respondents whether they had been
more than two months behind on
mortgage payments, received a
foreclosure notice, or lost property due
to foreclosure. Round 24 includes a
short series of questions on whether
respondents were offered stock options
by their employer, whether the option
was offered before the respondent
accepted the job, whether the option
affected the respondent’s decision to
take the job, whether the option is tied
to work performance, and whether the
respondent has exercised or plans to
exercise the option. Questions on assets
will not be asked in this round. It was
determined after Round 19 that an
E:\FR\FM\14APN1.SGM
14APN1
17217
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 70 / Tuesday, April 14, 2009 / Notices
extended series of questions on assets is
not necessary every survey round. The
questions on political involvement
included in Round 23 are not included
for Round 24.
III. Desired Focus of Comments
The BLS is particularly interested in
comments that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility.
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or

1 The number of respondents for the Mother Supplement (635) is less than the number of responses (800) because mothers are asked to provide separate responses for each of the biological children with whom they reside. The total number of responses for the Mother Supplement
(800) is more than the number for the Child Supplement (720) because the number of children completing the Child Supplement is lower due to
age restrictions and nonresponse.
2 The total number of 14,560 respondents across all the survey instruments is a mutually exclusive count that does not include: (1) The 400 reinterview respondents, who were previously counted among the 7,600 main survey respondents, (2) the 635 Mother Supplement respondents,
who were previously counted among the main survey respondents, and (3) the 540 Child SAQ respondents, who were previously counted
among the 720 Child Supplement respondents.

information collection request; they also
will become a matter of public record.

\1\ The number of respondents for the Mother Supplement (635) is less than the number of responses (800) because
mothers are asked to provide separate responses for each of the biological children with whom they reside. The
total number of responses for the Mother Supplement (800) is more than the number for the Child Supplement
(720) because the number of children completing the Child Supplement is lower due to age restrictions and
nonresponse.
\2\ The total number of 14,560 respondents across all the survey instruments is a mutually exclusive count that
does not include: (1) The 400 reinterview respondents, who were previously counted among the 7,600 main survey
respondents, (2) the 635 Mother Supplement respondents, who were previously counted among the main survey
respondents, and (3) the 540 Child SAQ respondents, who were previously counted among the 720 Child Supplement
respondents.
Total Burden Cost (capital/startup): $0.
Total Burden Cost (operating/maintenance): $0.
Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized
and/or included in the request for Office of Management and Budget
approval of the information collection request; they also will become a
matter of public record.
