SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The Census Bureau plans to conduct
a field test for the Re-engineered SIPP
from January to May of 2011. The SIPP
is a household-based survey designed as
a continuous series of national panels.
The SIPP is molded around a central
‘‘core’’ of labor force and income
questions that remain fixed throughout
PO 00000
Frm 00001
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the life of the panel and then
supplemented with questions designed
to address specific needs. Examples of
these types of questions include medical
expenses, child care, retirement and
pension plan coverage, marital history,
and others.
The 2011 Re-engineered SIPP
instrument is a revision of the 2010 ReSIPP test instrument, in which
respondents were interviewed during
the 2010 Dress Rehearsal Re-SIPP Field
Test. The Re-engineered SIPP will
interview respondents in one year
intervals, using the previous calendar
year as the reference period.
The content of the Re-engineered SIPP
will match that of the 2008 Panel SIPP
very closely. The Re-engineered SIPP
will not contain free-standing topical
modules. However, a portion of the
2008 Panel topical module content will
be integrated into the Re-engineered
SIPP interview. The Re-engineered SIPP
will use an Event History Calendar
(EHC) which records dates of events and
spells of coverage. The EHC should
provide increased accuracy to dates
reported by respondents.
The SIPP represents a source of
information for a wide variety of topics
and allows information for separate
topics to be integrated to form a single,
unified database so that the interaction
between tax, transfer, and other
government and private policies can be
examined. Government domestic policy
formulators depend heavily upon the
SIPP information concerning the
distribution of income received directly
as money or indirectly as in-kind
benefits and the effect of tax and
transfer programs on this distribution.
They also need improved and expanded
data on the income and general
economic and financial situation of the
U.S. population, which the SIPP has
provided on a continuing basis since
1983. The SIPP has measured levels of
economic well-being and permitted
changes in these levels to be measured
over time.
Approximately 4,000 households will
be selected for the 2011 Re-engineered
SIPP field test, of which, 3200
households are expected to be
interviewed. We estimate that each
household contains 2.1 people aged 15
and above, yielding approximately
6,720 person-level interviews in this
field test. Interviews take 60 minutes on
average. The total annual burden for
