The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

User’s Guide and Technical Report 1

1. INTRODUCTION 

This technical report documents the procedures used to collect and summarize data from the 

2005 High School Transcript Study (HSTS 2005). Chapters detail the sampling of schools and graduates 

(chapters 2 and 3), data collection procedures (chapter 4), data processing procedures (chapter 5), and 

weighting procedures (chapter 6). Chapter 7 describes the HSTS 2005 data files and codebooks that are 

encompassed by this report. Appendices A through J contain the HSTS 2005 data collection and 

documentation forms, and appendices K through M contain the associated National Assessment of 

Educational Progress (NAEP) 2005 study questionnaires. Appendix N contains information concerning 

nonresponse bias associated with creating the HSTS weights. Appendix O describes the Classification of 

Secondary School Courses (CSSC), which was used to code the courses on the HSTS 2005 transcripts, 

and provides a complete listing of CSSC codes. The codebooks for all of the HSTS 2005 restricted-use 

data files are in appendices P through W. A glossary of terms is in appendix X. 

This chapter provides an introduction to HSTS 2005. Additional information is contained in 

later chapters. Initial results are contained in the companion report The Nation’s Report Card: America’s 

High School Graduates: Results from the 2005 NAEP High School Transcript Study (Shettle et al. 2007),

where selected topics are discussed in greater detail. 

1.1 Overview of the High School Transcript Study 

Over the years, various reform efforts have sought to improve the quality of education across 

the United States. In the early 1980s, the focus was on statewide curricula in core courses, a response to 

the watershed report, A Nation at Risk: The Imperative for Educational Reform (National Commission on 

Excellence in Education 1983). Since then, national efforts have addressed several issues concerning 

quality education, analyzing the content of courses in specific subject areas (e.g., mathematics and 

science), the number of courses completed, and when courses are completed. 

NAEP HSTS is a periodic survey that provides educational professionals, such as 

administrators, policymakers, and researchers, with information regarding the coursetaking patterns of 

high school graduates and their grade point averages (GPAs). It can also be used to provide information 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 2 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

on the relationship of graduate coursetaking patterns to achievement as measured by NAEP. NAEP is an 

ongoing, periodic assessment of educational achievement in U.S. schools. 

The transcript studies serve as a barometer for changes in high school graduates’ 

coursetaking patterns. Coursetaking patterns provide valuable information about the rigor of high school 

curricula followed across the nation. The first national transcript study was conducted by the National 

Center for Education Statistics (NCES) in 1982 and captured baseline information on high school 

students’ patterns prior to the publication of A Nation at Risk and the resulting changes in curricula and 

educational reform. 

For HSTS 2005, complete transcripts for 26,200 graduates from public and private high 

schools in 2005 were collected from a nationally representative sample of schools from May through 

October 2005. The survey was conducted in conjunction with NAEP 2005 mathematics and science 

assessments in the 12th grade. A description of this survey can be found on the NAEP home page at 

http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/. 

Since similar studies were conducted on the coursetaking patterns of graduates over the 

years, changes in these patterns can be studied and compared. Table 1 lists the nine NCES studies that 

have been conducted beginning in 1982 involving the collection of high school transcripts.

User’s Guide and Technical Report 3

1.2 Relationship of the HSTS 2005 and NAEP 2005 

HSTS is conducted in conjunction with NAEP. HSTS 2005 was designed to allow an 

analysis of the coursetaking patterns of graduates who graduated from American public and private high 

schools in 2005. It was further designed so that data on graduates’ coursetaking patterns can be linked to 

the NAEP 2005 assessment results. NAEP provides results about subject-matter achievement, 

instructional experiences, and school environment, and reports these results for populations of students 

(e.g., 12th-graders) and selected subgroups of those populations (e.g., male students). Changes in the 

relationship of HSTS coursetaking to NAEP performance can also be examined for similar studies in 

1994, 1998, and 2000.1

NAEP provides HSTS with data on assessments in different subjects. For HSTS 2005, the 

scale scores for mathematics and science were provided. 

When schools selected for NAEP do not participate in NAEP, the original NAEP schools are 

replaced with appropriate substitute schools when feasible. To maintain as many links as possible with 

NAEP 2005 scores, substitute schools that participated in NAEP 2005 were asked to participate in HSTS. 

When neither the original NAEP refusal schools nor a NAEP substitute participated in NAEP, the school 

originally selected for NAEP was asked to participate in HSTS. If this school refused participation in 

HSTS early in the data collection process, the substitute school was asked to participate. Of the 1,017 

eligible schools in the original NAEP sample, 726 schools participated in the HSTS 2005 survey, of 

which 58 were substitute schools. Of the schools participating in HSTS 2005, there were 677 (93 percent) 

schools that also participated in NAEP 2005 and retained the information necessary to link HSTS and 

NAEP.2

A total of approximately 29,900 12th grade students were selected for HSTS 2005. Because 

sampling was performed in most schools prior to graduation, not all sampled students were, in fact, 

graduates. However, only graduates were eligible for inclusion in the transcript study. Of the students in 

the original sample, it was determined that approximately 27,200 (91 percent) had graduated by October 

2005. Transcripts were received from all but 99 (0.4 percent) of these graduates.

 The links between the graduates and their IDs are maintained at the schools to preserve the confidentiality of the graduates.

1.3 Contextual Background Data Provided by HSTS 2005 

Contextual background data for HSTS 2005 are obtained from the NAEP 2005 

questionnaires3

, the high school transcripts, and various school-level forms completed by a school 

coordinator or counselor. 

 NAEP 2005 Questionnaires also Completed for Non-NAEP Schools 

 The School Background Questionnaire contains information about the school, its 

teachers, and its student body (see appendix K). 

 The Students with Disabilities Questionnaire (SD) contains information about students 

classified by their schools as having a disability (see appendix L). 

 The Students with Limited English Proficiency Questionnaire (LEP) contains 

information about students classified by their schools as having limited skills in 

English (see appendix M). 

 NAEP 2005 Questionnaires not Completed for Non-NAEP Graduates 

Students taking NAEP completed Student Questionnaires embedded in their test booklets 

that described their background, demographic characteristics, and educational experiences. Since HSTS 

does not contact individual graduates, comparable information is not available for graduates that did not 

participate in NAEP. 

 Transcripts 

The transcripts provided information about the graduate that was coded and entered into the 

data system by trained personnel. These data included the following: 

 date graduate enrolled in high school; 

 date graduate graduated;

 rank in class (where available); 

 size of class (where available);

 list of courses taken in high school, including the grades received, the number of 

credits earned for each course, and the grade in which the course was taken; and 

 total number of credits received and, in many cases, total number of credits attempted. 

 School Forms, Catalogs or Course Lists 

 Transcript Request Form (TRF): A field worker completed a TRF upon returning to a 

school to obtain requested graduate transcripts. The form contained graduate 

demographic data, including Title 1 and National School Lunch Program participation 

status, as well as the student’s graduation status. 

 School Information Form (SIF): The completed SIF contained information about the 

school in general, such as sources of data collection information within the school, 

course description materials, graduation requirements, and grading practices. 

 School-level Catalog or Course Lists: These lists contained course titles and 

descriptions needed to code courses, using the Classification of Secondary School 

Courses (CSSC).4

1.3.1 Participation and Confidentiality of Data 

Graduates’ transcripts were collected by field workers for the sample of graduates selected 

for the NAEP 2005 assessment. Unlike NAEP, parental consent is not needed in HSTS, and the schools 

are provided with information about the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) that 

authorizes collection of transcript data without parental consent. Sometimes schools object, and field 

workers reiterate the FERPA. Generally, schools do not require parental or graduate notification or 

consent for HSTS because there is no burden placed on the graduate.

 See section 4.3.1 for additional information on this process. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 6 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

The data obtained from the transcript study were kept strictly confidential. Student names 

and any other identifiable information were masked on the copies of the transcripts before these materials 

left the schools. Furthermore, in schools that participated in the NAEP assessments, each student received 

a NAEP ID that was also used in HSTS. The list that linked the student’s name with that NAEP ID 

remained in the school. HSTS staff did not have access to that list and could not recreate it if it were lost. 

The restricted-use HSTS 2005 data files do not contain the graduates’ names or other 

variables that directly identify the sampled graduates. Data files do contain the graduates’ NAEP IDs, 

which enable researchers to link the transcript data to the NAEP data. HSTS follows NCES’ strict 

procedures regarding the confidentiality of data files. 

1.4 Classification of Secondary School Courses (CSSC) 

To compare transcripts from different schools, it was necessary to code each of the courses 

entered from the transcripts using a common course coding system. The coding system employed for this 

purpose was a modification of the system presented in A Classification of Secondary School Courses

(Ludwig et al. 1982). The CSSC, which contains over 2,200 course codes, is a modification of the college 

course classification system presented in Classification of Instructional Programs (Morgan, Hunt, and 

Carpenter 1991). Both course coding systems use a three-level, six-digit system for classifying courses. 

The CSSC uses the same first two levels as the Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP), which is 

represented by the first four digits of each code.5

 The third level of the CSSC (the fifth and sixth digits of 

the course code) is unique to the CSSC and represents specific high school courses. 

A taxonomy of course subject areas was developed for HSTS 1987. This taxonomy, 

documented in the HSTS 1987 tabulations (Thorne 1988), was developed with an emphasis on academic 

courses. Computer-related courses were considered as constituting a separate nonvocational subject area, 

and there were fewer subgroups defined for vocational and personal courses. This taxonomy was applied 

to data from the High School and Beyond (HS&B) 1982 First Follow-Up Study and the HSTS 1987 data. 

HSTS 1990 used a slightly expanded version of the same taxonomy in its reports.6

 

5

 Specifically, the CSSC uses the first two levels of the CIP as it existed in 1982. The CIP has undergone some modification since then. In 

addition, three sets of codes at the top level have been added to the CSSC to provide a means of classifying courses specifically designed for 

students with disabilities. 

6

 The 1990 study added 18 new codes to the CSSC and to the taxonomy. The full taxonomy is documented in Legum et al. 1993a and Legum et 

al. 1993c.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

User’s Guide and Technical Report 7

Starting with the 1994 study, HSTS switched over to the Secondary School Taxonomy 

(SST). Originally developed in the late 1980s by the National Assessment of Vocational Education,7

 SST 

has a less purely academic emphasis and a more richly defined group of vocational education categories 

than the taxonomy developed for the earlier HS&B and HSTS studies. Computer-related courses became 

vocational courses, and general skills and military science courses became new subject areas. To maintain 

comparability among the transcript studies, the HSTS 1987 and 1990 studies, along with the HS&B 1982 

study, were recoded using the SST. 

With more than 2,200 codes in the CSSC, it is often neither practical nor desirable to 

tabulate estimates of each possible CSSC code. It is typically more useful, however, to analyze the 

courses in larger subject areas such as English, social studies, mathematics, or science. There is also 

interest in subgroups of these subject areas, such as biology, chemistry, and physics. The taxonomy 

presented in appendix O provides the structure for aggregating the courses to subject areas. 

1.4.1 Adding and Deleting CSSC Codes 

Codes are added to the CSSC whenever courses are found in the catalogs that have no match 

in the CSSC. Highly trained coders coded the school catalogs received from the field workers. These 

coders reviewed the catalogs, matching the appropriate CSSC codes to the courses offered, according to 

the content and description of the course. If a course that was offered did not have a matching CSSC code 

in the existing list, the coders wrote that course description in a special suggestion list. After the catalogs 

were reviewed, and all but those courses on the suggestion list were coded, a coding specialist reviewed 

the suggestion list and tried to match these courses to existing CSSC codes. If a course did not have a 

matching CSSC code, and if this course also appeared in several other schools, a new CSSC code was 

generated. If the “new” course was limited to just a few schools, the CSSC code that most closely 

described the course was assigned. 

In 1994, 18 new CSSC codes were added to the list. In 1998, the CSSC’s computer science 

curriculum changed dramatically. New courses such as Web Design, Java Programming, and C++ 

Programming were added. Many courses that were labeled as honor courses in the past were reclassified 

as Advanced Placement (AP) courses. Many International Baccalaureate (IB) courses were added as well.

In all, a total of 83 new or revised codes were added to the CSSC in 1998. In 2000, two CSSC codes were 

added, one in science and one in computer-related studies. In 2005, 18 new codes were added. Five new 

codes reflected the increase in AP and IB courses available to students. Other courses were added when 

courses were encountered on the transcripts that were clearly different from codes already contained in 

the master CSSC list. These courses included leadership, military drill team, teacher training, and 

computer hardware and repair. No new subject areas were identified in HSTS 2005. Three duplicate and 

unused codes were dropped in 2005. 

1.5 Comparing HSTS 2005 Results to Other Transcript Studies 

Between 1982 and 2005, NCES has conducted nine high school transcript studies: the 

HS&B survey in 1982, the Second Follow-Up to the National Educational Longitudinal Study (NELS:88) 

in 1992, First Follow-Up to the Education Longitudinal Study of 2002 (ELS:2002) in 2004; and NAEP 

HSTS in 1987, 1990, 1994, 1998, 2000, and 2005. One research objective of NAEP HSTS 2005 was to 

study changes in the coursetaking patterns among high school graduates over time, comparing its results 

with the other NCES-conducted high school transcript studies. While results are reported for trends over 

time, it should be noted that some differences exist among the high school transcript studies and some 

direct comparisons are cautioned. 

For more information about comparisons among the different HS&B and HSTS studies, 

please refer to chapter 1 of The High School Transcript Study: A Decade of Change in Curricula and 

Achievement, 1990-2000 (Perkins et al. 2004).8

 For discussion about comparisons with the transcript 

component of the Second Follow-Up to NELS:88, please refer to appendix A of National Education 

Longitudinal Study of 1988, Second Follow-Up: Transcript Component Data File User’s Manual (Ingels 

et al. 1995). The similarities and differences between the high school transcript studies’ data (NAEP, 

NELS, HS&B) are also described extensively in the NCES Handbook of Survey Methods (Thurgood et al. 

2003). The handbook looks at the comparability of the high school transcript studies’ data based upon 

five criteria: (1) sample sizes, (2) oversampling of subgroups, (3) eligibility criteria for inclusion in the 

studies, (4) representativeness of cross-sectional and longitudinal populations, and (5) coding differences.

2. SAMPLE DESIGN FOR THE NAEP 2005 12TH-GRADE ASSESSMENTS 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study (HSTS 2005) sample consists of a subsample of 

12th-grade schools and students selected for participation in the 2005 National Assessment of Educational 

Progress (NAEP) operational science and mathematics assessments. This chapter describes aspects of the 

NAEP 2005 sample design that affect the HSTS 2005 sample. The focus of chapter 3 is on aspects of the 

selection of schools and students that are specific to HSTS 2005. 

All public and private high schools in the United States with one or more graduates in 2005 

were eligible for HSTS 2005. Graduates were defined as persons receiving a special education, regular 

education, or honors diploma. Graduates who were considered ineligible for NAEP (e.g., because of a 

disability) were considered eligible for HSTS. Eligible graduates with incomplete transcripts were 

considered nonrespondents. For analyses in which the user wishes to link results of the NAEP 

assessments with HSTS information, graduates were considered eligible if they met both the HSTS and 

the NAEP eligibility criteria. 

HSTS 2005 used all eligible public schools (i.e., schools with 12th-grade NAEP 

mathematics and/or science assessments) and a subsample of private schools from the 12th-grade NAEP 

2005 assessment. The HSTS 2005 graduate sample consisted of the NAEP 2005 student sample in these 

subsampled schools. 

2.1 Overview of the 12th-grade Sample Design for NAEP 2005 

The 12th-grade sample for NAEP 2005 was a two-stage probability-based sample of 

students.9

 This was a national sample in which schools were the first-stage sampling units selected with 

probability proportional to a measure of size based on the estimated grade-specific enrollment in the 

schools. The second stage involved selection of students within schools and their assignment to an 

assessment subject. In previous NAEP studies, the sample design included an initial sample of primary 

sampling units (PSUs) from across the nation. For NAEP 2005, the PSU sampling stage was eliminated 

for operational and statistical reasons. 

 

9

 The procedures for the 2005 NAEP selection differed from what was used in 2000. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 10 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

As in past assessments, modest oversampling of Black and Hispanic students was 

undertaken in this sample and was carried out at the school level in order to provide adequate information 

of these groups for analysis. Each school with both more than 15 percent Black and Hispanic students and 

10 or more minority students was considered a high minority school for these purposes and was given 

twice the selection probability of a low minority school of comparable size. This means that while about 

40 percent of the student population (including over 95 percent of the Black and Hispanic students) were 

in high minority schools, about 60 percent of the sampled students were from these schools. 

2.2 Stratification 

Sampling was done separately for public and private schools. The grade 12 public sample 

had an implicit stratification, using a hierarchy of stratifiers and a serpentine sort. The top of the hierarchy 

was census division (9 implicit strata). The next stratifier in the hierarchy was type of location, which had 

8 categories. Of the 72 potential type-of-location strata nested within census divisions, several were 

collapsed with neighboring type-of-location cells, always within census division, giving a total of 55 to 60 

census division-location type strata. 

These geographic strata were subdivided into 110 to 120 strata by a dichotomous high 

minority status category. Schools were in the high minority stratum if they had more than 10 minority 

eligible students and greater than 15 percent minority eligible students (minority defined as Black or 

Hispanic). Otherwise the school was put in a low minority stratum. If the expected sample size within 

these strata was less than 8.0, they were left as is. If the expected sample size was greater than 8.0, then 

the high or low minority stratum was subdivided into a maximum of four substrata (two for expected 

sample size up to 12.0, three for expected sample size up to 16.0, and four for expected sample size 

greater than 16.0). For the low minority strata, the subdivision was by state or groups of contiguous states. 

For the high minority strata, the subdivision was by minority percentage. In total there were between 160 

and 180 implicit strata. Within these substrata, the schools were to be sorted by estimated grade 

enrollment using a serpentine sort within the school type substrata. 

The private schools were explicitly stratified by type of private school (Catholic, Lutheran, 

Conservative Christian, other private). Within each school type, stratification was by census division 

(9 categories), type of location (8 categories), and by proportion of minority enrollment, used as a 

continuous sorting variable. The final number of strata was dependent on the proportion of minority 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

User’s Guide and Technical Report 11

students (Black/Hispanic/Native American) among those schools within each cell defined by private 

school type, census division, and type of location. In general, where there were few or no schools in a 

given stratum, categories were collapsed together. 

2.3 Selection of Substitute Schools 

Though efforts were made to secure the participation of all schools selected, it was 

anticipated that not all schools would choose to participate. Therefore, as each school was selected in the 

sample, the two neighboring schools in the sampling frame (immediately preceding and following it) 

were designated as replacement schools. If an original school refused to participate, the first replacement 

was then contacted. If that school also refused to participate, the second school was then contacted. There 

were several constraints on the assignment of substitutes. One sampled school was not allowed to 

substitute for another, and a given school could not be assigned to substitute for more than one sampled 

school. 

2.4 Assignment of Sessions and Sample Type to Schools for NAEP and Student Selection 

The public school sample at grade 12 was assigned three session types: Operational Reading, 

Mathematics and Science reporting samples (RS); Mathematics, Civics, History, and Economics pilot 

tests (PT); and Science Bridge (SB). Most of the sample schools received RS and PT session assignments, 

with many also receiving SB. Some very small schools received only SB. Up to 144 students were 

selected within schools. For schools with more than 144 students, a systematic equal probability sample 

of 135 students was selected. If the school had 54 students or more, 22 percent of the students were 

assigned to an SB session, with 62 percent of students assigned to an RS session and 16 percent of 

students assigned to a PT session. If the school had 36 to 53 students, a third of the students were 

assigned to SB and the rest were split between RS and PT in a 4 to 1 ratio. If the school had 24 to 35 

students, half of the students were given SB, 40 percent were assigned RS, and 10 percent were assigned 

PT. Schools with fewer than 24 students had all students assigned to SB. 

For private schools, the assignment was similar. Up to 136 students were selected per school. 

For schools with more than 136 students, a systematic equal probability sample of 120 students was 

selected. For schools with 97 or more students, approximately 13 percent of students were assigned SB 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 12 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

and the remainder RS and PT. Students were allocated between the latter two sessions in a ratio of 9 to 1. 

If the school had 36 to 47 students, one-third of the students received SB and the remaining two-thirds 

received RS and PT. Schools with 24 to 35 students had half of the students assigned to SB and the other 

half to RS and PT. If the school had less than 24 students, all students took SB. In all cases, students were 

allocated between the RS and PT sessions in a 9 to 1 ratio. 

2.5 Students Not Included in the Assessment 

School staff members were asked to determine whether any of the students identified as 

having a disability or with limited English language proficiency could not participate in the assessment. 

They needed to determine if a student could not participate meaningfully, or if the accommodations 

required for the student to participate were not available. These students were not invited to the 

assessment and coded as “excluded” to distinguish them from absent students. Although school staff are 

encouraged to follow NAEP standards regarding which students should be excluded from testing, the 

final decision is made by school personnel. 

From the schools selected in the HSTS school sample, approximately 3 percent of the 

students were excluded from the NAEP assessment. As the transcript study attempted to collect high 

school transcripts for all students selected for the assessment, whether or not they participated, transcripts 

for these students are included in the transcript study.

3. SAMPLING OF SCHOOLS AND GRADUATES FOR THE NAEP HSTS 2005 

3.1 Overview of Sample Design for NAEP HSTS 2005 Sample 

The sample for High School Transcript Study (HSTS) was designed to achieve a nationally

representative sample of public and private school high school graduates in the Class of 2005. The target 

population for the 2005 national assessments included all graduates in public and private schools who 

were enrolled in 12th-grade in 2004-05, and who graduated in 2005. The samples were selected based on 

a two-stage sample design: selection of schools and selection of graduates within schools. 

3.2 Sampling of Schools 

For public schools, the HSTS sample was, in fact, the National Assessment of Educational 

Progress (NAEP) 2005 12th-grade public school sample for the operational math and science 

assessments.10 All participating NAEP 2005 12th-grade public schools were part of the initial HSTS 

sample regardless of whether they were original or substitute NAEP schools. If neither the original nor 

the substitute school selected participated in NAEP, the original school was included in the initial 12thgrade public school sample. 

In NAEP 2005, private schools were heavily oversampled to meet explicit target sample 

sizes for reporting group (Catholic, Lutheran, Conservative Christian, Other Religious, Nonsectarian, and 

Independent) in order to provide reliable NAEP estimates for such students. In HSTS 2005, however, the 

oversampling of private schools was reversed so that the private school students in HSTS were 

represented in proportion to their prevalence in the general 12th-grade student population. Table 2 

presents the subsampling rates and the calculations that generated those rates. 

Probabilities of selection were determined for each school before the school sample was 

selected. The final probabilities of selection for the 2005 NAEP HSTS school sample were the products 

of the 2005 NAEP probabilities of school selection and the conditional probabilities of selection in the 

 

10 Note that this excludes schools that were sampled for only pilot or bridge studies. Public schools with less than 24 students in 12th grade had a 

two-ninths chance of being assigned a bridge-only session, and private schools with less than 24 students in 12th grade had a one-eighth chance 

of being assigned a bridge-only session.

HSTS sample. The subsampling process (using the designated subsampling rates) was a systematic 

sample within each private school stratum listed in Table 2. The ordering for this systematic sample was 

the frame ordering from the NAEP 2005 private school sampling process. Schools with unknown 

affiliation were sampled at the same rate as “other” private school types (45 percent). 

3.3 Sampling of Students 

For those HSTS sample schools that cooperated in the NAEP assessment, all graduates who 

were assessed in the operational mathematics and science assessments and also graduated in 2005 were 

included in the HSTS sample of graduates within the school. For HSTS sample schools that did not 

cooperate in the NAEP assessment but agreed to cooperate in HSTS, a subsample of 50 graduates was 

typically drawn from their 12th-graders who graduated in 2005.11 If the list contained 50 or fewer 

graduates, all graduates were selected. 

3.4 School Response Rates 

Nonresponse is a serious concern in any probability sample, as differential response rates 

within important subgroups may generate biases that are difficult to measure and control through 

adjustment. NAEP HSTS 2005 had generally very high response rates, but there are two particular areas 

of concern. The first area of concern is private schools, where response was low. The second area of 

concern is the decision by one large state not to participate in HSTS (though it participated in the NAEP 

2005 12th-grade reading and mathematics operational assessment). Tables 3 and 4 present response rates 

for the main HSTS study and for the NAEP-HSTS linked study respectively. The first set of response 

rates is for the HSTS study as a whole, counting as respondents those who participated in HSTS, 

regardless of their participation in NAEP. The second set of response rates is for the NAEP-HSTS link 

study, counting as respondents those schools that participated in both HSTS and NAEP, and where 

linkage of the NAEP assessment and the HSTS study transcript information is possible.12 

 

11 If there were between 50 and 60 graduates, the school had the option of including up to 60 graduates.

inverse of the probability of the school being selected into the sample). The weighted enrollment counts 

are weighted by the product of the school base weight and the 12th-grade enrollment of the school. 

Nonresponse in public schools was concentrated in two census divisions—the Northeast 

Division and the West Division, with the Northeast suffering much more extensive nonresponse—as can 

be seen in table 7. It was necessary to determine whether the nonresponse adjustments were sufficient. A 

nonresponse bias analysis was conducted to review the impact of all nonresponse in the study and to 

determine whether the nonresponse adjustments were sufficient. The conclusion was that the estimates for 

the national figures were within acceptable bounds, but that the estimates for the Northeast region were 

not (see appendix N).

3.5 Response Rate for Graduates 

For the HSTS main study, a graduate was nonresponding only if the selected graduate was 

eligible for the transcript study and no usable transcript was available for the graduate. For graduates in 

schools that participated in NAEP, graduates were considered to be selected for HSTS if they had been 

selected for NAEP even if they did not participate in NAEP. For schools that did not participate in NAEP, 

graduates were selected systematically when field personnel visited the schools. A student selected for

Table 12 presents a breakout of the main study students by eligibility and response status. A 

student was generally eligible if he or she had graduated, and ineligible if graduation had not been 

achieved in 2005. A transcript was only usable if at least 75 percent of the credits necessary for 

graduation were represented on the transcript. A small number of transcripts for eligible students were not 

usable and were coded out as nonresponse. The overall weighted response rate was 99.7 percent. 

Table 13 presents a breakout of HSTS eligibility separately by public and private schools. 

The percentage of transcripts that were incomplete was about the same in public and private schools, but 

the ineligibility rate (the percentage who had not graduated) was much higher in public schools.

For the NAEP-HSTS link study, a graduate had to also participate in a NAEP assessment for 

the graduate’s transcript to be part of the link study (as information from both the transcript and the 

NAEP assessment is required). Table 14 presents the numbers of sampled graduates in NAEP link 

schools who were assigned to a mathematics assessment and who were assigned to a science assessment.

Table 15 presents the relationship between HSTS transcript status and HSTS/NAEP link 

transcript/assessment status. Among HSTS graduating students with complete transcripts, they linked to 

an assessment in 69 percent of the cases. In 3 percent of the cases, the student was deemed not eligible to 

take the NAEP assessment due to a disability or limited English proficiency. In 28 percent of the cases, 

the student did not take the NAEP assessment (usually a refusal or absence). Some transcripts that were 

incomplete, making them nonresponsive for the HSTS main study, correspond to students deemed 

ineligible to take the NAEP assessment. For the link study, these will be counted as ineligible.

4. DATA COLLECTION PROCEDURES 

This chapter discusses the procedures used in the data collection for the 2005 High School 

Transcript Study (HSTS 2005). Included are sections on training field workers, contacting the schools, 

obtaining course catalogs and other school materials, collecting graduate transcripts, sending the data for 

processing, and receipting and reviewing the data. 

4.1 Training NAEP 2005 Field Supervisors as Data Collectors 

The field workers for HSTS 2005 were drawn from the pool of 2005 National Assessment of 

Educational Progress (NAEP 2005) field supervisors. In December 2004, they were trained in the HSTS 

2005 data collection procedures. Conducted by HSTS home office staff, the training consisted of several 

in-person training sessions, each completed in about half a day. In addition, field workers received an 

HSTS manual that outlined detailed procedures for collecting the data. 

The training sessions established the background knowledge needed to help field workers 

make informed decisions about collecting information in the schools and to explain why attention to 

detail and accuracy would be crucial in ensuring the quality of HSTS 2005 data. The training also 

familiarized field workers with the HSTS 2005 materials and forms. The field workers were given 

examples of various types of high school records and materials, including school- and district-level 

catalogs, course lists, transcripts, and all the forms used for HSTS 2005. The field workers learned how 

the data on each of these materials became the information needed at the school and graduate levels. A 

PowerPoint presentation with the details of data collection was included in the training sessions. 

Also during the trainings, the field workers were provided an opportunity to work with 

practice forms similar to actual materials used for HSTS 2005. The field workers completed sets of 

exercises designed to provide them with hands-on experience in examining school materials and filling 

out the forms that they would use.

4.2 Contacts with States, Districts, and Schools 

State coordinators in each state were informed about HSTS and were responsible for telling 

the public school districts in their states about the study. The home office provided them with a Summary 

of School Activities (see appendix F). The summary provided information about participating in HSTS 

2005, including the amount and nature of school staff and time required for participation and procedures 

that would be used to ensure confidentiality of the data. 

Westat field workers contacted school personnel at the school level. Field workers followed 

the same procedures for contacts with both public and private school personnel. Workers were provided 

with an informational letter to principals and a Summary of School Activities. They gave these materials 

to the school principals and school coordinators during their initial contact with the schools. 

Initial HSTS information requested by field workers from schools included school specific 

information that school personnel were asked to provide on the School Information Form (SIF). They 

were also asked to provide their school’s course catalogs for the four most recent school years, including 

2004-05, and sample transcripts. This initial information was collected by field workers either through the 

mail or in person at the time of their first visit. At a later date, the schools were also asked to provide a 

complete transcript for each graduate in the HSTS 2005 sample. Information provided on the SIF 

indicated the appropriate date for the HSTS 2005 field workers to obtain these transcripts. 

For eligible participating NAEP schools that agreed to cooperate, students sampled for the 

mathematics and science operational portion of NAEP 2005 were included in the HSTS 2005 sample, and 

a brightly colored Disclosure Notice was placed in their folder by a NAEP 2005 field worker or school 

staff member. This notice served two functions: 

 It alerted the school personnel that information contained in the student’s folder would 

be used for HSTS 2005. 

 Because of its color, it also served as a visible marker for identifying the folders of 

students in the HSTS 2005 sample to facilitate finding their transcripts at a later date. 

Notification describing the student sampling process and the confidentiality safeguards were 

sent to schools that participated in NAEP (including schools that were substitutes for the original school 

selected for NAEP) and to schools that were substitutes for schools that participated in NAEP but refused 

participation in HSTS. Specifically, the notification stated that the intent was to select fifty 12th-grade 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

User’s Guide and Technical Report 27

students from the school, and student names would be removed from any papers that left the school. Field 

workers also emphasized that a school’s participation in HSTS 2005 would not involve any student time. 

For both NAEP 2005 participating and nonparticipating schools (whether original or 

substitute schools), the initial contact by the field worker included a discussion of the following: 

 procedures for obtaining transcripts for the selected students and the method for 

reimbursing the school for the expense; and 

 the availability of a course catalog or course description list. 

An appointment was then set to visit the school to prepare the transcript requests and obtain 

the course catalogs. 

4.3 Obtaining Course Catalogs, Sample Transcripts, and Other School-level Information 

Prior to HSTS field data collection, Westat contacted schools and requested that they send 

copies of their catalogs to Westat. This permitted Westat to start catalog coding prior to field data 

collection. 

Field workers requested sample materials for HSTS 2005 when they first contacted a school 

for HSTS and collected any materials not previously mailed to Westat when they visited the school in the 

spring or summer. The sample materials included a course catalog (or a list of courses) offered for each of 

four consecutive years, from school year 2001-02 through school year 2004-05; a completed SIF; and 

three sample transcripts, one representing a student taking “regular” courses, one with honors courses, 

and one with special education courses. Since these materials were unique to each school, acquiring them 

before the collection of the actual transcripts enabled HSTS 2005 staff to examine them and call a field 

worker or the school to resolve any questions early in the process. Early collection of the catalogs also 

permitted inputting catalog information prior to receipt of the transcripts, thereby enabling coding to end 

as soon as possible after data collection. 

The field worker also gathered general information about class periods, course credits, 

graduation requirements, and other aspects of school policy. Sometimes this information was documented 

in the course catalog and at other times in a separate school policy document.

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 28 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

4.3.1 Catalogs 

Course catalogs were carefully reviewed at the school. Field workers verified that the 

catalogs contained all of the courses that 12th-graders could have taken in high school, including 

vocational, remedial, honors, special education, off-campus courses, or courses taught in a language other 

than English. If these course listings were not in the catalog, every effort was made to obtain additional 

information from school personnel or, in some cases, through web searches to document the existence of 

such courses and to describe them. 

HSTS requested course catalogs containing the most comprehensive information about the 

courses offered by the schools. Ordered from most to least complete, the requested types of catalogs are 

as follows: 

 a school-level catalog providing course titles and descriptions; 

 a district-level catalog, if it indicated which courses were offered at the HSTS 

participating school; 

 a course list by department that included general descriptions of course offerings by 

department; 

 a school-level course list without descriptions; or 

 a district-level catalog without any indication of which courses were offered in 

specific schools. 

All catalogs and course lists that were received by field workers were forwarded to HSTS 

2005 data processing staff. 

4.3.2 Sample Transcripts 

Since transcript format varies greatly among school districts throughout the country, three 

transcripts of previous graduates were obtained from each school by the NAEP field workers during the 

initial call or visit to the school. The three transcripts requested from each school included one that 

contained honors-level courses, one that contained special education courses, and one that contained just 

the “regular” courses. The HSTS field workers marked each transcript to indicate where on the transcript 

the needed information was found and how information regarding course level was coded. Attached to 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

User’s Guide and Technical Report 29

each marked-up transcript was a Transcript Format Checklist (appendix H) indicating the key transcript 

information and whether or not that information was found or, if so, whether it was marked on the 

school’s transcripts. 

4.3.3 SIF and HSTS Questionnaire 

The SIF was forwarded for data processing along with the other preliminary materials as 

described above. The SIF was completed by the field worker. Along with general school information, the 

completed SIF contained the following information: 

 sources of information within the school (if needed to complete HSTS 2005 data 

collection); 

 graduation requirements; 

 grading practices at the school; 

 format of the school’s transcripts; and 

 name and position of the school’s HSTS 2005 coordinator who helped complete the 

form. 

The field workers were instructed to fill out the SIF completely or to indicate clearly on the 

SIF where the requested information could be found in the other materials provided by the school. 

4.3.4 School Background Questionnaire 

The School Background Questionnaire (see appendix K) is a NAEP 2005 questionnaire that 

collected information about school, teacher, and home factors that might relate to student achievement. It 

was completed by a school official (usually the principal) as part of NAEP 2005 for the NAEP 

participating schools. Field workers asked HSTS schools that did not participate in NAEP 2005 to 

complete a School Questionnaire.

4.3.5 SD and LEP Questionnaires 

The questionnaires that NAEP 2005 used to collect information from school staff about 

students with disabilities and students with limited English proficiency are called the SD Questionnaire 

and LEP Questionnaire, respectively (see appendices L and M). Schools were asked to have the person 

most knowledgeable about a disabled or limited English proficient student complete the questionnaire(s). 

In large schools, this person was typically a counselor, a special education teacher, or a teacher of English 

as a second language. In smaller schools, this person was typically a classroom teacher. For schools 

participating in NAEP 2005, the SD and LEP Questionnaires were collected as part of the NAEP 

procedures. 

4.4 Identifying the Sample of Students and Obtaining Transcripts 

There were 726 schools that participated in HSTS, and 677 of these schools participated in 

NAEP 2005 and HSTS. Of these 677 schools, 44 were substitute schools. 

HSTS 2005 used the NAEP 2005 sample for selecting schools and students in NAEP 

participating schools. For schools that participated in NAEP 2005, the student sample was recorded on the 

NAEP 2005 Administration Schedules. For schools that did not participate in NAEP 2005, the field 

worker drew a sample of graduates at the school. Details on how this sample was drawn can be found in 

section 3.2 and 3.3. The procedures for identifying graduates in schools with NAEP 2005 materials and in 

schools without NAEP 2005 materials are described in detail in separate sections that follow. 

4.4.1 Materials from NAEP 2005 Schools 

Transcripts were requested for all students who were sampled for the operational 

mathematics and science part of NAEP 2005. They included all assessed students, sampled students who 

were absent during the NAEP assessment, and SD and/or LEP students who were excluded by the school 

from participating in the assessment. 

Once graduation information was posted on transcripts, a field worker returned to the school 

to obtain the requested transcripts. At that time, the field worker used a Transcript Request Form (TRF) 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

User’s Guide and Technical Report 31

(see appendix C) to obtain basic information about the sampled students that was not available from 

NAEP 2005 data files. In addition to student name and NAEP ID, it contained columns for entering 

graduation status, gender, birth month and year, race/ethnicity, SD status, LEP status, Title 1 

participation, and National School Lunch Program participation for each listed student. Data available 

from NAEP 2005 files (NAEP ID and demographic variables) were preprinted on the form.13 The 

completed TRFs contained the following information: 

 Student Name – The field worker recorded the first name, middle initial, and last 

name of each assessed, absent, or excluded student listed on the NAEP 2005 

Administration Schedule. These entries were made to correspond to the preprinted 

NAEP ID. 

 NAEP ID – The 10-digit NAEP 2005 assessment booklet numbers and SD and LEP 

questionnaire numbers for students excluded from the assessment were preprinted in 

ID order. This column on the TRF identified all students for whom transcripts were 

needed. 

 Exit Status – Sometimes the exit status was determined directly from the transcripts, 

and sometimes it was determined by other records or provided by school personnel 

Using this information, field workers assigned one of the following codes to describe 

each student’s outcome at the school: 

- graduated with a standard diploma 

- graduated with an honors diploma 

- received a diploma with special education adjustments 

- received a certificate of attendance 

- still enrolled in this school 

- dropped out 

- transferred 

- withdrawn 

- GED 

- other or reason unknown 

 

13 To ensure consistency between NAEP 2005 and HSTS 2005, the field staff were instructed not to change the preprinted demographic 

information. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 32 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

 Birthdate, Gender, and Race/Ethnicity – Demographic information was generally 

preprinted for each sampled student. If not preprinted, it was recorded from the NAEP 

2005 Administration Schedule. 

 SD and LEP Status – For each student, it was recorded whether or not the student 

was classified by the school as SD and/or LEP. 

 National School Lunch Program and Title I – Field workers recorded yes or no for 

participation in each of these programs. 

 Transcript Received – Field workers checked this column to document that the 

transcript for a given student had been received. 

Once the TRF was completed by carefully transferring student information from the 

Administration Schedules, the field worker filled out the summary box at the top of the form and 

requested transcripts according to the procedures set forth by the school. As already noted, the Disclosure 

Notice placed in students’ folders at the time of the first visit helped to facilitate transcript collection in 

participating NAEP schools. 

Once the field worker filled in the names of the students, some schools were able to access 

an electronic data file and print the transcripts. In other schools, the school coordinators pulled transcripts 

from their folders and photocopied them at the school. 

When the request for transcripts was filled, the field worker reviewed the transcripts to 

ensure that a transcript had been received for each 12th-grade student selected for the operational 

mathematics or science portion of the NAEP 2005 assessment, whether or not that student had graduated. 

Even though nongraduate transcripts were not included in HSTS, each student graduation status needed to 

be accounted for and verified, so that weighting could be done correctly. Each transcript was checked for 

eligibility, understandability (e.g., all the codes on it were defined on the transcript or explained in the 

SIF), and completeness. The field worker then labeled each transcript with preprinted labels containing 

the School ID and the NAEP ID for the student. The field worker completed a Documentation of Missing 

Transcripts form to explain the reasons the school gave for any missing transcripts.

The procedures for schools that did not participate in NAEP were similar to those for schools 

that participated with the following exceptions: 

 As discussed in chapter 3, field staff were responsible for selecting a systematic 

sample of graduates, since there were no students designated to receive operational 

mathematics or science assessments. 

 Demographic information on the TRF had to be obtained for the sampled graduates. 

 The school was asked to complete the NAEP 2005 school questionnaire and an SD or 

LEP questionnaire for any of the graduates sampled who were classified as SD or 

LEP. 

 Data collection for non-NAEP schools started later than for the NAEP schools. 

Therefore, catalogs were frequently collected at the same time as the transcripts. In 

this case, the field worker annotated three actual transcripts from among those that 

were collected. 

4.5 Sending Data for Processing 

As with NAEP 2005, safeguards were built into the procedures for the transcript study to 

ensure that applicable privacy requirements were met. After transcripts were collected and all information 

on sampled graduates recorded, field workers prepared the transcripts for transmittal to the data 

processing staff. They first compared the graduate ID and name on the transcripts to the TRF to verify 

that they had obtained and correctly labeled the transcripts. At the same time, they noted on the TRF 

which transcripts were received and which were not. They then cut off the left hand column of the TRF, 

which contained the names of the graduates. The list of names remained in the schools (and was 

ultimately destroyed) and the remainder of the TRF was placed in the package to send to the HSTS 2005 

field officer for data processing. 

A Shipping Transmittal Form (appendix J) accompanied all shipments to the data processing 

staff and summarized the types and number of materials being sent. This form also gave information on 

whether the transcripts were from the NAEP 2005 list or a new sample and, if the school did not 

participate in NAEP 2005, whether course catalogs and a SIF were included in the shipment.

5. DATA PROCESSING PROCEDURES 

As discussed in chapter 4, schools provided a wide variety of data for use in the 2005 High 

School Transcript Study (HSTS 2005). This chapter explains how these data were processed to produce 

the study’s data files. Figure 1 depicts the data flow for the project. 

5.1 NAEP 2005 Questionnaires 

The main National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) study provided HSTS staff 

with data files for schools and students included in NAEP 2005. The School Questionnaires and the 

Students with Disabilities (SD) and Limited English Proficiency (LEP) Questionnaires14 collected in 

HSTS 2005 for non-NAEP schools were the same as the ones used in NAEP 2005. These questionnaires 

were electronically scanned, using the same procedures used in NAEP. Information from these scanned 

questionnaires was added to the appropriate NAEP data files to constitute HSTS 2005. 

5.2 Data Collected Other Than NAEP 2005 Questionnaires 

5.2.1 Westat Transcript Entry System (WesTes) 

WesTes is a custom-built Structured Query Language (SQL) server application specifically 

designed for processing large-scale transcript-based studies in an accurate and efficient manner. It stores 

most of the school and graduate information collected for the study in a single integrated relational 

database. It is used to ensure that the data collected by HSTS is properly tracked and to assist the data 

entry and coding personnel in the prompt and accurate completion of their tasks. 

 

14 See section 1.3 for a description of these questionnaires and appendices K, L, and M for copies of them.

5.2.2 Receipt Control 

This section discusses the receipt control tasks associated with HSTS 2005. These include 

using controls built into WesTes and entering School Information Forms (SIFs), catalogs, other nontranscript data and transcripts. 

5.2.2.1 Preparation of WesTes for Receipt Control 

The NAEP samples of schools and students selected for the HSTS 2005 sample were loaded 

into WesTes. When a school refused participation and a substitute school was identified during data 

collection, the substitute school was added to WesTes and the original school was deleted. The list of 

schools was used to ensure that data could be entered into the system only for schools sampled for the 

NAEP HSTS 2005 sample or designated substitute schools. After a valid school ID had been entered by a 

staff member, the system allowed staff to enter data only for graduates in the sample for that school. 

5.2.2.2 SIFs, Course Catalogs, and Other Nontranscript Data 

When the packages containing the SIF and catalogs were received at Westat, receipt clerks 

selected the school ID in WesTes and entered the receipt date for each of these materials. Receipt clerks 

were also responsible for entering the data from the SIF (see appendix B) into WesTes. These data 

included substantial amounts of information needed to correctly interpret catalog and transcript entries. Of 

particular importance is the information on the number of credits given by the school for one Carnegie 

unit and the number of credits required to graduate. These data were 100 percent verified. 

5.2.2.3 Transcripts 

When transcript study materials arrived for data processing, a receipt clerk carefully 

reviewed all items for accuracy and completeness. Transcripts were matched to the Transcript Request 

Form (TRF). Field workers were contacted immediately if further clarification was needed. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 38 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

After reviewing the transcript materials, the clerk recorded the transcript materials and 

followup requests (when required) using the WesTes transcript receipt module. For each school, the clerk 

compared the number of transcripts requested with the number actually received and reviewed and 

verified the list of all student IDs assigned to that school. The clerk entered the receipt date for the 

package and whether or not it contained a TRF. For each student ID in the school, the receipt clerk 

indicated whether or not it had been received, the receipt date, and the exit status as indicated on the TRF. 

The receipt staff could update the exit status of students based upon determinations from the coding and 

transcript management staff if the transcript was found to be not usable or incomplete. Schools were 

reimbursed for the cost of producing the transcripts within 2 weeks after their materials were received for 

data processing. 

5.2.3 Catalog Coding 

This section describes the process of coding catalogs. 

Catalog coding staff highlighted the course titles and course numbers, if available, in the 

catalogs and sent them for key entry. Data entry personnel keyed the catalog titles and, when available, 

course numbers assigned by the school into ASCII files and key verified the data. The files containing the 

course titles were then uploaded into WesTes. 

After the course titles were loaded into WesTes, a catalog coder reviewed all the materials 

from a school to obtain an understanding of the school’s curriculum and any special circumstances that 

would clarify the nature of the content of specific courses. Using the WesTes Catalog Coding Screen, the 

catalog coder displayed each catalog title individually, reviewed the corresponding entry in the school’s 

catalog and then entered the CSSC code that best matched that description.15 

The catalog coder also set flags to indicate whether the course was a special education 

course, whether the course was part of a sequence of closely related courses, taught off campus, taught in 

English, and the level of the course.16 

 

15 See section 1.4 for additional information about the CSSC. 

16 See appendix O for information on these code values. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

User’s Guide and Technical Report 39

When coding a course, catalog coders matched the course description in the high school’s 

catalog to the course description in the CSSC.17 Using course descriptions rather than titles for purposes 

of assigning CSSC codes to catalog courses is important because the course title often does not provide 

sufficient information to differentiate between codes. For example, a course with a name such as Algebra 

1 could be a remedial course, a reduced-pace algebra course, a first semester algebra course, or the first 

year of a series of algebra courses. To facilitate the matching process, the full CSSC was available online 

to the catalog coders. If a transcript course cannot be found in the course catalog from that school, the 

course is added to the course offerings file. This typically occurs when course catalogs are not up to date 

or complete. 

5.2.4 Coding Transcripts 

Transcripts may contain a variety of information in addition to lists of courses taken and the 

grades and credits earned for each course. Many include information such as graduation date and class 

rank, for which only one entry is made per graduate, as well as the names of tests taken by the graduate, 

test scores, and honors awarded. This section describes the coding process for these additional items as 

well as for the course information. 

5.2.4.1 Single-entry Items 

The following single-entry items were recorded for each graduate when they were available 

on the transcript: 

 graduation date; 

 class rank; 

 size of class; 

 grade point average (GPA); 

 adjusted GPA (as reported by the school); 

 days absent in 9th grade; 

 

17 See appendix O for information on these code values. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 40 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

 days absent in 10th grade; 

 days absent in 11th grade; 

 days absent in 12th grade; 

 total credits received; 

 total credits attempted; 

 whether the graduate received a General Equivalency Diploma (GED); and 

 date of GED completion. 

5.2.4.2 Honors 

If a transcript listed honors, the date (month and year) and a description of the honor were 

entered. In order to speed data entry, the following common descriptions were included on a drop-down 

list: 

 national honors; 

 athletic honors; 

 academic honors; 

 honor roll; and 

 other. 

When “other” was selected, the data entry clerk typed in the name of the award. Many of 

these referred to specific subject matter such as English, algebra, or chemistry and had names like English 

9 Award. Others were not subject-matter specific, for example, the Golden State Seal Merit Diploma. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

User’s Guide and Technical Report 41

5.2.4.3 Tests 

Tests were recorded in much the same way as honors. A pick list was provided containing 

the names of the most common tests that appear on transcripts.18 Test scores were recorded when 

available. 

5.2.4.4 Course Entry 

Transcript courses required the most extensive portion of the data entry effort. This effort 

was because the graduates’ transcripts, on average, included 46 distinct course entries. For each course, 

the transcript entry staff recorded the grade level (9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th), the year in which the course 

was taken, the term (e.g., fall semester, summer school), the course name, the grade, and the number of 

credits earned. The transcript entry staff also set a flag to indicate whether or not a course was transferred 

from another school. In addition, since information on whether a course was a special education course, 

was taught off campus, was taught as English as a second language course or in a foreign language, and 

the level of the course is recorded on some transcripts, the transcript entry staff set flags representing each 

type of information. These flags had the same possible values as the corresponding flags used to code 

courses listed in the schools’ catalogs. 

5.2.4.5 Assigning CSSC Codes through Title Matching 

One of the most challenging aspects of the transcript coding process is linking the course 

titles on the transcripts to the appropriate catalog course title in order to assign each transcript course an 

appropriate CSSC code. This was done through a process known as title matching, which was performed 

by coders who were trained for title matching after the preceding transcript information had been entered 

for all graduates from a school. To the greatest extent possible, title matchers worked with the same high 

school catalogs that they coded in the spring. This permitted them to capitalize on their knowledge of 

state education systems, graduation requirements, and acronyms. 

 

18 The test names on the pick list included ACT Composite, English, Mathematics, Reading, and Science; PLAN Composite; PSAT Writing; 

SAT Math and Verbal; and Stanford Language, Mathematics, Science, Social Science, and Total Reading. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 42 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

Because course titles on transcripts are frequently different from the course titles a school 

uses in its catalog, it is usually not practical to fully automate the title matching process. In addition, even 

when it is possible to automate title matches, a review by knowledgeable staff of the resulting matches is 

an important quality control check. For these reasons, title matching was performed by experienced 

catalog coders using computer-assisted matching tools built into WesTes. 

WesTes presented the title matcher with a list of all the unique title and flag combinations 

appearing on a school’s transcript and a list of the coded catalog titles for the school. The title matcher’s 

task was to match each of the titles from the transcripts to a catalog course. Title matchers matched 

nontransfer course titles on transcripts to the high school’s catalog. They matched transfer courses 

directly to the most likely CSSC course description found in the generic catalog. The generic catalog was 

the most current version of the CSSC file. 

They matched transfer courses directly to the most likely CSSC course description. In this 

case, the CSSC was used like a course catalog. 

Title matchers used all of the title and flag information that was comparable in both the 

catalogs and the transcripts for a school. For example, if the school distinguished between a regular 

English 9 course and an honors English 9 course in the catalog and on its transcripts, title matchers would 

ensure that a transcript course named English 9 with the level flag set to the honors code would be 

matched with the catalog course English 9 Honors (CSSC code 230111) and not with the average or 

remedial English 9 courses in the catalog. However, if the catalog did not distinguish between the 

different levels of English 9 but the transcripts did, the catalog coders would match all the English 9 

courses on the transcripts to the catalog English 9 course, even though the catalog had the flag set to the 

default regular level. Often courses in the catalog represent classes in which the student ability is mixed. 

The flag for the course in the catalog is set at the lowest level, thus a class that offers honors or even AP 

within a regular class is given a flag for general level. If the transcript indicates that a particular student 

received credit at a level that differs from the general catalog level, the transcript flag for that student is 

set at the appropriate level. When these data are analyzed, the level assigned to the student for the course 

is based upon the transcript if it is different than the level flag found in the course catalog.

5.2.5 Quality Control Procedures 

Procedures designed to ensure a high quality data processing operation include the careful 

hiring and training of HSTS staff, rekeying data for verification purposes, automated tests to identify 

records for review, and the use of logs to identify and rectify problems. Each of these quality assurance 

measures is discussed in a separate section below. 

5.2.5.1 Hiring and Training 

Central to quality control is having thoroughly trained, well-qualified staff. Westat, 

therefore, spent considerable effort on selecting and training data processing staff. Two distinct groups of 

staff members were recruited and trained for HSTS 2005: catalog coders and data entry staff. Catalog 

coders matched the course descriptions in each school’s catalog to the corresponding code in the CSSC,

and a subgroup of them also matched the course titles on the transcripts to the corresponding titles in the 

school’s catalog. Data entry staff entered the transcript information into the project database.19

 Transcript Data Entry Staff 

Transcript data entry staff members were selected for their ability to enter data accurately

and consistently. They were then provided with extensive training that explained the study and taught 

them how to enter data from high school transcripts. 

The transcript entry training spanned 5 days, with new concepts introduced in the morning 

and practical application exercises performed in the afternoon. The primary function of the training was 

instructing the staff in the use of WesTes for entering data found on transcripts with an emphasis on 

hands-on practical experience. The secondary function of the training was covering the basic concepts 

and challenges the staff would encounter while entering high school transcripts. 

 

19 In addition to staff described here, other Westat data entry clerks did some straightforward data inputting tasks, such as typing the names of 

course titles. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 44 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

 Catalog Coders 

Requirements for employment as a catalog coder included a minimum of a bachelor’s degree 

in a social science, with a master’s degree preferred, and 2 or more years of teaching experience. The 

interview process paid special attention to experience in teaching a variety of core content areas as well as 

special education, knowledge of school curricula and procedures, attention to detail, application of 

analytical skills, and dedication to accuracy. 

Training lasted for 5 days. It was guided by a training manual covering the following topics: 

high school catalog components; state requirements for graduation; special education programs; course 

levels and flags; transfer courses; honors and advanced placement programs; and vocational, work, and 

career-related programs. 

Training activities involved informative presentations, visual demonstrations, and practical 

applications. Examples illustrating salient points were drawn from actual materials. Coders learned to use 

the WesTes coding system, employing its category and subcategory search. Coders also became familiar 

with the CSSC and the importance of studying a course’s full description before assigning a CSSC code. 

A final exercise was given on the last day of training as a graded evaluation of coding analysis and 

application to verify that coders were able to meet the accuracy standards for the project. 

 Title-Matching Staff 

Six catalog coders were selected to perform the title-matching task. The training for title 

matching was similar in both form and procedure to catalog coder training. During a 4-day period, title 

matchers learned to match the transcript information entered during transcript entry and verification with 

the CSSC catalog course codes that they had assigned during catalog coding. 

5.2.5.2 Rekeying for Verification 

All data entry from transcripts was verified by a staff member other than the one who 

initially entered the data. This required blindly rekeying most of the information on the transcript. 

However, the names of honors, tests, and courses were displayed during verification, because the verifier 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

User’s Guide and Technical Report 45

needed to see them to make meaningful entries in the related fields. These fields were only rekeyed when 

the verifier believed that an error had been made in entering them. Since course titles were keyed in full 

and were later matched to catalog titles, verifiers paid particular attention to any data entry errors in the 

titles that might potentially lead to incorrect matches. The system alerted the verifier to any differences 

between his or her entries and the original entries. The verifier then had the opportunity to confirm or 

change the most recent entry. 

Verification showed that initial data entry was quite accurate. For example, verifiers changed 

2 percent of grades and less than 1.5 percent of course credits. 

5.2.5.3 Automated Tests to Identify Records for Review 

Several automated reports were developed to identify records to be manually reviewed. 

Some reports were developed to assist coders in identifying records to be re-examined before submitting 

cases for review. Other reports were designed for supervisors to use to identify courses for their review. 

The automated reports highlighted items that appeared to be inconsistent or to have 

unusually high or low values. For instance, reports were generated of transcripts within a school that had 

not yet been coded. A more complex type of report was a list of course titles containing the word 

“honors” without the honors flag having been set in the catalog. 

5.2.5.4 Use of Logs to Identify and Rectify Problems 

Specific problems encountered during data entry and coding operations were entered on one 

of two logs: (1) Supervisor’s Problem Log, and (2) System’s Problem Sheet. Problems identified in the 

Supervisor’s Problem Log were discussed in a meeting of HSTS staff, and the resolutions were indicated 

on each problem sheet. A System’s Problem Sheet was submitted when the problem encountered was 

with WesTes. A description of the problem and a screen shot (when applicable) were included and the 

systems specialists corrected these problems.

6. WEIGHTING AND ESTIMATION OF SAMPLING VARIANCE 

6.1 Overview of Weighting in HSTS 2005 

This chapter explains how the weights associated with the 2005 High School Transcript 

Study (HSTS 2005) were calculated. Restricted-file users do not need to understand all the material in this 

chapter; however, they do need to be aware of which types of weights are appropriate to use with the 

analyses they wish to do. The appropriate weights to use are discussed in section 7.3.1. 

The next sections of this chapter discuss school weights and graduate weights. The final 

section presents additional information about the replicate weights. This chapter uses the following 

terminology in discussing the weights: 

 Linked weights: Weights that should be used for point estimates for a variable that is 

only available for schools or graduates in schools that can be linked to the National 

Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) (such as NAEP scores or parental 

education). 

 Unlinked weights: Weights that should be used for point estimates for a variable 

available for all responding schools or all graduates in the HSTS sample (such as 

highest science course completed or grade point average [GPA]). 

 Replicate weights: Weights used when estimating variances for point estimates. 

6.2 School Weights 

The final school weights consist of the product of base weights that reflect differences in the 

probability of schools being selected for HSTS and weights that adjust for differential nonresponse rates 

for different types of HSTS schools. 

This section first discusses the school base weights and then discusses adjustments for 

nonresponse. Finally, it presents the formulas used for calculating the school weights from the base 

weights and the nonresponse adjustment factors. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 48 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

6.2.1 School Base Weights 

The school base weights ws and the 62 corresponding replicate weights ws(r) were 

computed, using the following factors: 

 a factor equal to the inverse of the school’s probability of being sampled for NAEP 

[Ws and Ws(r)]; 

 a factor equal to the inverse of the school’s probability of being subsampled for HSTS 

(Wc); and 

 a factor equal to the inverse of the school’s probability of having students selected for 

participation in either the NAEP mathematics or science assessment (SCHSESs).20

The formulas for calculating the HSTS base weights and replicate weights for the schools 

are as follows: 

ws = Ws *Wc *SCHSESs 

ws(r) = Ws(r) * Wc *SCHSESs

6.2.2 School Nonresponse Adjustments for HSTS 2005 

This section describes the weighting cell adjustment used for adjusting for school

nonresponse. The starting point for a cell structure was the strata from the original NAEP school sampling

process (for 12th-grade public and 12th-grade private schools). This was also the cell structure used in the 

development of nonresponse cells for NAEP. When cells based on the strata were too small to allow for 

stable nonresponse adjustment, cells were collapsed. The final school nonresponse weighting cells for use 

with the unlinked HSTS responding school sample were designated as U )( SNRADJc , c=1,...,C(U), where 

C(U) is the total number of weighting cells, c S is the set of all eligible original HSTS schools in cell c, 

U )( Rc is the set of all unlinked responding schools (with responding substitutes replacing original 

nonrespondents) within c S ; and ws is the HSTS school full sample base weight. 

 

20 Schools with fewer than 24 students in the 12th grade did not necessarily participate in either the operational science or mathematics 

assessments. Two-ninths of the public schools with less than 24 students were assigned to a bridge session only, and one-eighth of the private 

schools with less than 24 students were assigned to a bridge session only. Thus, schools with fewer than 24 students were weighted by the inverse 

of the probability of having an operational mathematics or science assessment.

In words, this calculation indicates that the adjusted weight equals the total base weight for 

all schools divided by the total base weight for all responding schools in the cell. 

Because many analyses are restricted to schools for which student NAEP scores can be 

linked to HSTS data, a similar nonresponse adjustment was done for schools in the linked sample. The 

corresponding cells for the linked NAEP-HSTS responding school sample were L)( SNRADJc , c=1,...,C(L), 

where C(L) is the total number of weighting cells and ( L)( Rc ) is the set of all linked responding school 

(with responding substitutes replacing original nonrespondents). The school nonresponse adjustments 

were computed as follows for each nonresponse weighting cell:

For the unlinked weights, schools were eligible if they had at least one graduate in their 

class, and if they satisfied the NAEP criteria for eligibility. A school was cooperating if it cooperated with 

the HSTS survey (whether or not it also participated in NAEP 2005). 

For the linked weights, the eligibility criteria were the same as for the unlinked weights. A 

school was considered cooperating only if it cooperated both with NAEP 2005 and HSTS 2005 and 

retained the information needed to link the NAEP and HSTS records.

Appendix N presents estimates of enrollment, by grade and standard errors, using these 

weights and replicate weights. As can be seen, the school nonresponse adjustments had the effect of 

allowing the responding schools to represent the full set of schools. The replicate adjustments were 

designed to produce variance estimates reflecting the component of variability added by the nonresponse 

adjustment process. 

6.3 Weights for Graduates 

The final weights for graduates consist of the product of the base weights, which are equal to 

the inverse of the probability of the graduate being selected for HSTS; a nonresponse adjustment factor; 

and a trimming factor used to ensure that individual graduate weights are not excessively large. For 

graduates, the following types of final weights are calculated: 

 weights for all graduates in the HSTS 2005 sample; 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

User’s Guide and Technical Report 51

 weights for graduates in the HSTS 2005 sample for whom NAEP mathematics scores 

are available; 

 weights for graduates in the HSTS 2005 sample for whom NAEP science scores are 

available; and 

 weights for graduates in the HSTS 2005 sample for whom either NAEP mathematics 

or science scores are available. 

All of these weights are designed to estimate variables for all graduates. Which type of 

weight should be used depends upon what type of data the user is analyzing. For example, in estimating 

the GPA of graduates, the first weight would be used. If, however, the user wishes to explore the 

relationship between NAEP mathematics scores and GPA, the user will use the second type of weight, 

because these estimates must be based on the subsample of all HSTS graduates who also took the NAEP 

mathematics assessment. Similarly, if the user wishes to explore the relationship between NAEP science 

scores and GPA, the user will use the third type of weight, because these estimates must be based on the 

subsample of all HSTS graduates who also took the NAEP science assessment. Finally, the fourth weight 

is used when the user wishes to estimate a variable (such as responses to the student questionnaire) 

available for all graduates who took either the mathematics or the science assessment but not for other 

HSTS graduates. 

6.3.1 Base Weights 

The number of weights calculated for a graduate in HSTS 2005 depended upon which of the 

four possible samples the graduate belonged to (i.e., all graduates, all graduates who took the NAEP 

mathematics assessment, all graduates who took the science assessment, and all graduates who took either 

the mathematics or the science assessment). All sample members have a weight (referred to as the 

unlinked weight) used to estimate statistics for all graduates. Since students could not participate in both a 

mathematics and a science assessment, those graduates with linked NAEP data will have two weights in 

addition to the unlinked weight – either the mathematics or science linked weight and the combined 

linked weight. The summation of the graduate base weights over a particular subgroup is an unbiased21

estimator of the total number of graduates in that subgroup in the population. 

 

21 This assumes that the school nonresponse adjustments completely adjusted for bias due to school nonresponse.

6.3.1.1 Base Weights for Graduates in Schools without Linked NAEP Data 

The unlinked base weight for graduates ( U )( STUWGTsk ) within the unlinked schools was 

different from the student weight in the NAEP sample because, as explained in chapter 3, the two samples 

are not identical. The unlinked weight in this case is a product of the following factors (where s indicates 

school; k indicates graduate): 

 the school nonresponse adjusted weight U )( SCHWGTs ; 

 the substitute school weighting factor (SUBADJs) that adjusts for differences in 

enrollment between the original school and the substitute school; and 

 the within-school sampling interval22 for graduate selection WINSCHWTs.

6.3.2 Nonresponse Adjustments 

The methods used for nonresponse adjustment for the HSTS 2005 graduates were very 

similar to those used for the NAEP 2005 12th-grade operational studies, with a few minor differences. 

Nonresponse adjustments were done separately for the unlinked and the linked samples of graduates. For 

the linked samples, it was necessary for the graduate to be both a NAEP respondent and a graduate with a 

transcript to be a linked sample respondent. 

6.3.2.1 Preliminary Formation of Weighting Cells for Public School Graduates 

For unlinked and linked weights for graduates from public schools, the following nesting 

cell structure was used to define nonresponse weighting cells, following what was done for NAEP 2005: 

 SD/LEP status of graduate crossed with subject (SD and/or LEP math, SD and/or LEP 

science, no SD/LEP); 

 school nonresponse cell; 

 age of graduate (classed into “older” graduate and “normal age or younger” graduate); 

 sex; and 

 race (as given on the school administration form).

6.3.2.2 Preliminary Formation of Weighting Cells for Private School Graduates 

For unlinked and linked graduate weights within private schools, the following nesting cell 

structure was used to define nonresponse weighting cells,23 again following what was done for NAEP 

2005: 

 school nonresponse cell; 

 age of graduate (classified into “older” graduate and “normal age or younger” 

graduate); 

 sex; and 

 race (as given on the school administration form). 

6.3.2.3 Collapsing of Weighting Cells 

When cells based on the nesting structure, (sections 6.3 and 2.2) were too small24 to allow 

for stable nonresponse adjustment, cells were collapsed. The final graduate nonresponse weighting 

adjustments for unlinked and linked weights respectively are designated as )( )( ,...,1 , U U STNRADJ d = Dd

and )( )( ,...,1 , L L STNRADJ d = Dd where D(U) is the total number of weighting cells designated for the 

unlinked weights and (D(L)) is the total number of weighting cells designated for the linked weights.

6.3.3 Weight Trimming 

A similar trimming procedure was used for HSTS 2005 as was used for NAEP 2005. The 

weights for graduates were trimmed using the multiple median rule trimming procedure. The trimming 

procedure detects and truncates excessively large weights. Any weight within a given trimming group 

greater than a specified multiple of the median weight value of the given trimming group had its weight 

scaled back to that threshold. The same trimming factor calculated for the full sample weight was applied 

to each replicate weight within the same trimming group. 

A multiple 3.5 was attempted as the cutoff factor. If too many weights are trimmed using 

this cut (e.g., more than 5%), 4.5 is used as the cutoff factor. The trimming group was defined by school 

type (public, the various types of private schools). 

6.3.3.1 Unlinked Weights 

For the unlinked weights, the median U )( MEDc of the nonresponse adjusted weights for the 

responding graduates within each trimming group c was calculated, then the trimming factor25 was

6.3.3.2 Linked Weights 

For the linked weights, a factor was attached for whether the graduate had a mathematics 

NAEP assessment or a science NAEP assessment. This factor is designated as STUMSOsk. The probability 

of being assigned a mathematics assessment given assignment to mathematics or science is 0.4081. Thus 

STUMSOsk for a mathematics assessment graduate is 2.45. The probability of being assigned a science 

assessment given assignment to mathematics or science is 0.5919, with a corresponding STUMSOsk of 

1.69. Then the subject-specific linked weights are computed as follows:

6.4 Variance Estimation 

Replicate weights have been provided for each set of sample weights to allow users to 

compute variances for HSTS 2005 estimates. The particular method used for HSTS 2005 was the 

stratified jackknife assuming two primary sampling units (PSUs) per stratum (Krewski and Rao 1981), 

the same method used for the main NAEP 2005. 

Graduate estimates based on HSTS 2005 are subject to sampling error because they are 

derived from a sample, rather than from the whole population. The variance is a measure of sampling 

error and, for the most part, determines the reliability of an estimate. Sampling variance indicates how 

much a population estimate for a given statistic would be likely to change if it were based on another 

equivalent sample of individuals drawn in exactly the same manner as the actual sample. Since HSTS 

2005 used a complex sample design with several stages of sampling, unequal selection probabilities, and 

complex weighting procedures, use of standard textbook formulas or standard routines in software 

packages such as SAS and SPSS generally underestimate the true variance of survey estimates and should 

not be used. 

6.4.1 Jackknife (JK2) Replication Method 

The basic idea behind replication is to select subsamples repeatedly from the whole sample, 

calculate the statistic of interest for each subsample, and then use the variability among the subsample or 

replicate statistics to estimate the variance of the full sample statistic. Different ways of creating 

subsamples from the full sample result in different replication methods. The subsamples are called 

replicates, and the statistics calculated from these replicates are called replicate estimates. 

The stratified jackknife replication method used for HSTS 2005, known also as the JK2 

replication method, assumes that the population of PSUs, the first stage units, is grouped in L variance 

strata with two PSUs (or variance units) selected from each stratum. In the case of HSTS 2005, the first 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

User’s Guide and Technical Report 59

stage units are the schools. In general, a replicate estimate is formed by randomly selecting one variance 

unit in a variance stratum. The weight of the selected variance unit is doubled, the weight of the 

nonselected variance unit is multiplied by zero, and the weights for the variance units in the remaining 

variance strata are not modified. This process is repeated for each variance stratum. If there are L variance 

strata, then L replicates are created. 

The JK2 replication method, as well as any of the other replication methods, is implemented 

by using replicate weights. Each replicate weight corresponds to a given replicate. The estimated 

sampling variance of some statistic t is calculated by taking the sum of M squared differences (where M is 

the number of replicate weights developed): 

2

1

ˆ () ( )

M

i

i

Var t t t == ∑ −

where ti denotes the statistic of interest obtained using the i

th set of replicate weights and t denotes the 

statistic obtained using the set of full sample weights. 

6.4.2 Calculating Replicate Weights 

Replicate weights for a given HSTS 2005 sample were created by generating random 

samples of the original sample. In all, 62 replicate weights were created on each graduate record in an 

HSTS 2005 data set. Thirty-six replicates were designed to reflect the variance contribution arising from 

sampling PSUs (generally known as between-PSU variance). The remaining 26 replicates were designed 

to reflect the variance contribution arising from sampled schools within the 22 certainty PSUs (generally 

known as within-PSU variance). This variance replication scheme was the same one traditionally used for 

the national main NAEP 2005 assessment samples. 

The creation of the 36 variance strata for the noncertainty PSUs involved pairing 

noncertainty PSUs in a manner that models a two PSU per stratum design in which PSUs are drawn with 

replacement. The HSTS 2005 samples used the main NAEP 2005 pairings, where PSUs were paired 

based on similar stratum characteristics. The 36 pairs of PSUs were formed by putting together PSUs 

from adjacent strata within NAEP region and metro status. Adjacent strata had similar socioeconomic 

characteristics such as proportion minority population, population change since 1980, per capita income,

civilian unemployment rate, educational attainment, and unemployment rate. Each PSU in a pair was 

randomly assigned to one of two different variance units (1 or 2). Each PSU pairing was referred to as a 

variance stratum, and each PSU in a variance stratum was referred to as a variance unit. 

The procedure for creating the 26 variance strata for the certainty PSUs was analogous but 

somewhat more complex. The first stage units in certainty PSUs were schools, and so schools were paired 

to form variance strata under the JK2 model. For the 22 certainty PSUs in each HSTS 2005 sample, 

schools were listed in order of selection, and successive schools were paired within certainty PSUs. If 

there were an odd number of schools within a certainty PSU, the last three schools were grouped into a 

triple. Each school grouping was referred to as an initial variance stratum. Each school in a pair (or triple) 

was randomly assigned to 1 of 2 (3) different variance units [1, 2, (or 3)]. Since the number of initial 

variance strata greatly exceeded the desired number of variance strata (26), the initial strata were 

systematically assigned to 26 “combined” variance strata.27 To distinguish between the two types of 

variance components, the 26 variance strata for the certainty PSUs were labeled 1 through 26, and the 36 

variance strata for the noncertainty PSUs were labeled 27 through 62. 

Replicate base weights (i = 1–62) for a graduate assigned to a variance stratum with two 

first-stage sampling units were calculated as below. STU_BWT was the graduate base weight for a given 

HSTS 2005 sample, as described in section 6.1, which reflected the various stages of selection.

When a stratum contained three first-stage sampling units, graduates in the stratum had their

intended effects of the weighting adjustments.

7. GUIDE TO THE DATA FILES AND CODEBOOKS 

This chapter describes the content and organization of the 2005 High School Transcript 

Study (HSTS 2005) data files and codebooks. It also details the process for accessing and obtaining the 

data files. 

7.1 Public-use and Restricted-use Data Files 

7.1.1 NAEP Transcript Data Explorer 

For the first time, the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) HSTS data are 

accessible as public-use data through a web-based analysis tool. Researchers will be able to conduct 

interactive analyses on the NAEP HSTS 2005 data with the High School Transcript (HSTS) version of 

the NAEP Data Explorer (NDE). An adaptation of NDE, the NDE for the HSTS is a Data Analysis 

System (DAS) that enables users to access and analyze the graduate transcript data collected for HSTS 

2005. Users can construct tables with as many variables as can be supported by the data, although data 

disclosure rules will place some limitations on the number of crossed variables, as well as the number of 

categories within the variables. 

The NDE for HSTS is being made available to the public in two phases. In the first phase 

which has been released, researchers can generate tables of average NAEP assessment score tables for a 

number of independent variables, which include coursetaking and other transcript information, school and 

graduate demographic information, and the NAEP questionnaire responses. The data is limited to 

graduates who participated in both the NAEP assessment and HSTS and were eligible for inclusion in the 

transcript analysis. All analyses in the first phase use the NAEP scores as the default dependent variable. 

The NAEP-based data available in the NDE for HSTS are categorical or binary variables and can be used 

for user table requests. 

The second phase of the NDE for HSTS will provide researchers with additional flexibility 

in variable selection for dependent variables, such as earned course credits and grade point average 

(GPA). Transcript data will be available from all graduates eligible for inclusion in the transcript analysis, 

regardless of their participation in NAEP. Phase II will also add 1990 and 2000 data to the NDE for 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 64 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

HSTS, so that users can examine trends in HSTS data. The NDE can be accessed at 

http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/nde/help/qs/About_NAEP_Data_Explorer.asp. When the second 

phase of the NDE for HSTS is available, it will be announced on this website. 

7.1.2 Restricted-use Data 

By Federal law, the schools and graduates that participated in HSTS 2005 are to remain 

confidential. However, all NAEP microdata files, including the NAEP HSTS 2005 data files, are available 

to users as restricted-use data files. Restricted-use data files contain variables for schools and graduates 

that cannot be released to the public, because of confidentiality concerns, but are made available to 

educational researchers. Though these data contain direct identifiers of schools, educational researchers 

using the HSTS 2005 data files must agree not to release any information that directly identifies a school 

or graduate, such as school name or address. 

Because of confidentiality legislation, secondary users who wish to obtain a copy of the 

restricted-use data files must apply for an National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) restricted data 

license. If an organization does not already have a restricted data license, it is necessary to obtain a copy 

of the Restricted-Use Data Procedures Manual. There is a four-page checklist in this document that 

details the steps involved in obtaining a license. The manual may be viewed and downloaded from the 

NCES website at http://nces.ed.gov/statprog/rudman, or a copy may be requested from the following 

contact individual: 

Cynthia Barton (202) 502-7307 

cynthia.barton@ed.gov

If an organization already has a restricted data license, the organization may need only to 

have the license amended to add new datasets and/or authorized data users. Note that, in college or 

university settings, only faculty can serve as the primary project officer. 

To obtain a restricted data license (or to amend an existing license), a secondary user should 

apply using the electronic registration process available at http://nces.ed.gov/statprog/instruct.asp.

7.2 Content and Organization of the Restricted-use Files 

Data from HSTS 2005 were organized into eight data files: 

 Course Offerings File 

 School File 

 Student File 

 NAEP Data File 

 SD/LEP Questionnaire File 

 Tests and Honors File 

 Transcript File 

 Master CSSC File 

Except for the Master CSSC File (which is not related to individual schools or graduates), all 

files can be linked by unique school identifiers. The Student, NAEP Data, SD/LEP Questionnaire, 

Transcript, and Tests and Honors files can be linked by unique student identifiers. The Master CSSC File 

can be linked to either the Course Offerings or the Transcript File by CSSC number. 

Each file contains the appropriate weighting variables and replicate weights.28 To obtain 

accurate results, users must select the appropriate weights for the type of analyses they are undertaking. 

This section will provide an overview of the information available in each of the data files. 

More detailed information is available in the codebooks in appendices P to W. 

7.2.1 Course Offerings File 

The Course Offerings File is a complete listing of courses offered in all participating 

schools. Organized by school, each of the file’s 169,864 records contains the following information: 

 school ID; 

 

28 See Chapter 6 for a discussion of the appropriate weights to use. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

 course title; 

 course CSSC code; 

 special education flag; 

 the source of the catalog (e.g., generated from transcripts or from a school-provided 

catalog); 

 the catalog type (whether the catalog is a district-level catalog, a school catalog, or a 

list of courses generated by the school); 

 the location of the course (including various off-campus locations); 

 the language of instruction; 

 the level of the course (e.g., remedial, regular, enriched, honors); and 

 whether it was part of an instructional sequence. 

It should be noted that schools may not offer all courses that are on a transcript. For 

example, in a high school that covers grades 10 through 12, the grade 9 courses that graduates took in 

junior high school were not treated as transfer courses but appeared as if they were offered by the high 

school. This treatment provides a more balanced picture of the courses available to graduates in four years 

of high school than would be provided by treating such courses as transfer courses. For the 55 schools 

from which no catalogs were received, the list of unique course titles appearing on the sampled transcripts 

was the only available source of course offering entries. 

7.2.2 School File 

The school file contains one record for each of the participating schools. The file includes 

school variables gathered on the School Information Form (SIF) during the transcript study, as well as the 

school’s responses to the NAEP School Questionnaire. Copies of the questionnaires are in appendices K, 

L, and M. Information collected on the SIF that appear on the HSTS 2005 school file include diplomas 

offered, school programs offered, the typical number of classes per school day, and the typical length of 

time for school classes.

7.2.3 Student File 

The student file contains a record for each of the high school graduates who were identified 

for HSTS 2005. Each record in the file contains demographic information, sampling information, 

graduate weights, and replicate weights for variance estimation. It also contains a flag indicating whether 

or not the graduate was disabled (SDSTATUS) and a variable indicating the specific nature of the 

disability when applicable (HCTYPE).29 The file also contains a series of derived variables, including 

summaries of the graduate’s coursetaking record by major educational topic, as taken from the graduate’s 

transcript data. Because a number of transcripts for graduates were not received or were incomplete, only 

26,151 graduates have full transcript information on their graduate records. 

7.2.4 NAEP Data File 

This file contains data from the NAEP 2005 mathematics and science assessments for the 

HSTS sampled graduates. Because NAEP scores are designed to provide accurate group estimates rather 

than student-level information, plausible values for graduates are developed. These plausible values 

variables are “conditioned” on other variables (e.g., parents’ education level and NAEP region) in the 

NAEP datasets. These plausible values provide more unbiased estimates of graduate scores when NAEP 

data are analyzed in conjunction with the conditioning variables.30 The NAEP data file includes the 

plausible values for NAEP proficiency scores for each 2005 high school graduate who participated in a 

NAEP assessment in a school that was fully linked to HSTS 2005. 

In addition to the variables used to estimate plausible values for the main NAEP study, the 

following transcript study variables included in the student file were used in the conditioning process: 

 ACADTRK Student Program 

 CLRANK/CLSIZE Class Rank divided by Class Size 

 

29 The values of the disabling condition codes in 2005 are 00 = Multidisabled, 01 = Learning Disabled, 02 = Hearing Impaired, 03 = Visual 

Impaired, 04 = Speech Impaired, 05 = Mental Retardation, 06 = Emotional Disturbance, 07 = Orthopedic Impaired, 08 = Traumatic Brain Injury, 

09 = Autism, 10 = Developmental Delay, 11 = Other Health Impaired, 12 = Other, 88 = Not Reported. These codes have been modified since the 

codes used in HSTS 1998 file. 

30 The plausible value estimation process for NAEP is explained at http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/pubs/guide97/ques11.asp and in the 

NAEP technical report for 1996 (http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/pdf/main1996/1999452b.pdf. Also, see the forthcoming online NAEP 2005 

technical report for a detailed discussion of conditioning.

7.2.5 SD/LEP Questionnaire File 

The SD/LEP questionnaire file contains a record for each of the approximately 3,000 HSTS 

sampled graduates with student disability and/or limited English proficiency questionnaire data. The file 

contains all data from the completed questionnaires, including the demographic variables asked for on the 

cover of the questionnaires. 

7.2.6 Test and Honors File 

The test and honors file contains information on standardized test scores and honors that 

appears on high school transcripts. Of the transcripts collected, about 9,400 transcripts (approximately 

one-third) contained either standardized test scores or notations regarding honors and awards that 

graduates received. Transcripts without this information may belong to graduates who did not take 

standardized test scores and/or received no honors; however, they may also be for graduates attending 

schools that did not report some or all of this information on transcripts. Because of the relatively small 

percentage of transcripts represented and the uncertainty about the source of missing data, the data in this 

file should be used with caution. 

Graduates in the Test and Honors File are identified by the combination of school and 

graduate ID variables. Each test or honor entry on a transcript is identified with a unique sequence 

number. The combination of graduate ID and test/honor sequence number allows for a unique ID number 

for each test or honor within the file. Each entry also contains an indicator of the record type (“T” = test, 

“H” = honor), the month and year of the test or honor (if available), and a 50-character description of the 

honor or the test. 

For most tests, scores were provided; however, it was not always possible to give 

meaningful entries for some test scores. The subtests that are reported also varied tremendously. 

Complete scores are provided for the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT) math and verbal 

subtests, the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) math and verbal subtests, and the American College Test 

(ACT) composite subtests that appeared on the transcripts. The remaining test information is less 

complete. The file contains 46,680 records.

7.2.7 Transcript File 

The Transcript File contains a record for each course appearing on the sampled graduates’ 

transcripts. It is an extremely large file, containing over 1.3 million records. Courses are uniquely 

identified by a course ID number. Each course record includes the following variables: 

 student ID number; 

 grade level when course was taken; 

 school year when course was taken; 

 school term when course was taken; 

 course title; 

 grade received (original and standardized); 

 credits received (original and standardized Carnegie units); 

 course Classification of Secondary School Courses (CSSC) code; 

 whether the course was a special education course; 

 whether the course was taught off campus; 

 whether the course was taught in a language other than English; 

 instruction level of the course; and 

 whether the course was a transfer course. 

The analyst may wish to use this file to obtain new summary variables for graduates to add 

to the student file. 

7.2.8 Master CSSC File 

The Master CSSC File contains all codes in the modified version of the Classification of 

Secondary School Courses (CSSC) used in this study. The CSSC is described in chapter 1, and additional 

information on the codes is included in appendix O. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The Master CSSC File is organized by the CSSC code and contains four variables: 

 CSSC course code (described in chapter 1); 

 special education flag (described in chapter 5); 

 standard course title; and 

 sequence flag (described in chapter 5). 

7.3 Additional Information for Researchers Wishing to Use Restricted-use Files 

The HSTS data files contain a wealth of education-based information for researchers to use 

to understand issues related to coursetaking, access to courses, and achievement. This section addresses 

some topics that were not addressed in preceding sections such as the use of NAEP scores for individuals. 

7.3.1 Selecting the Proper Weights 

As discussed in chapter 6, there are multiple weights associated with HSTS 2005. Selecting 

the appropriate weight to use in analyses involving HSTS 2005 is critical for ensuring accurate results. 31 

Users’ wishing to estimate variances as well as point estimates should be aware of the 

importance of using replicate weights32 with HSTS 2005. Since HSTS 2005 used a complex sample 

design with several stages of sampling, unequal selection probabilities,33 and complex weighting 

procedures, use of standard textbook formulas or standard routines in software packages such as SAS and 

SPSS generally underestimate the true variance of survey estimates and should not be used. 

 

31 Section 6.1 describes the weights to be used for different type of analyses. 

32 See section 6 for additional information on the replicate weights. 

33 See chapters 2 and 3 for more information on the sampling used in HSTS.

7.3.2 Statistical Software for Use with HSTS 2005 

Specialized software is required to produce the appropriate statistics from the HSTS 2005 

data due to the complex sample design reflected in the jackknife replicate weights and the plausible 

values of the NAEP scale scores. Standard SAS and SPSS code can produce accurate point estimates but 

cannot easily produce correct standard errors. 

The International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA) has 

developed SAS and SPSS macros to work with similar kinds of jackknife replicate weight datasets found 

in international educational assessments like Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) 

and the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS). These files need to be modified for use 

with the HSTS 2005 data files. The programs can be downloaded from the international website at the 

IEA International Study Center at Boston College (http://isc.bc.edu/timss2003i/userguide.html). 

Commercial software such as WesVar can also be used for analyzing the HSTS data 

(http://www.westat.com/wesvar/). Other commercially-available software includes SUDAAN v9 

(http://www.rti.org/sudaan/) and STATA v9 (http://www.stata.com/). 

7.3.3 Use of NAEP Scores for Individuals 

The design of the NAEP studies does not allow reporting on the performance of individual 

students. Rather it assesses student performance in selected academic areas for specific populations of 

students or subgroups of these students. The NAEP sample includes students from both public and private 

schools. To maximize student participation, NAEP policy states that a student should be asked to 

participate in the assessment, unless their inability to do so can be clearly established. Beginning with the 

2000 assessment, NAEP HSTS linked analyses have included graduates who took the assessments with 

accommodations because they had disabilities or were LEP students. 

 NAEP Scale Scores 

Because of the design of the NAEP assessments, each student typically responds to only a 

few questions within any content area, and not all students are asked the same questions. Unlike many 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

User’s Guide and Technical Report 73

traditional assessments, there is no linear transformation between correct/incorrect items and a single 

score. Using a single student-level score would result in misleading estimates of population 

characteristics. Instead, NAEP constructs sets of plausible values (in sets of five) designed to represent 

the distribution of performance in the population for each subject assessed. A plausible value is a 

representative value from the potential scale scores for all students in the population with similar 

characteristics and identical patterns of item response. Because HSTS collects additional information 

about the student characteristics and item responses that can be used in this estimation process, plausible 

values for NAEP scale scores are recalculated for the HSTS sample for use in analyses relating NAEP 

scores and HSTS transcript data. As a result, NAEP scale scores associated with the HSTS 2005 data 

differ slightly from NAEP scale scores associated with NAEP 2005 student data. 

Since the statistics describing the performance on the NAEP mathematics and science scales 

are based on the plausible values, the statistical software used to conduct these analyses must properly 

compute the statistics for the plausible values. 

More information about NAEP 2005, including scale scores, plausible values, and jackknife 

variance replication can be found in the forthcoming online NAEP 2005 technical report. 

7.4 HSTS Analysis Reports 

Data collected by HSTS offers researchers a unique glance into graduate coursetaking 

patterns from one study year to the next. Many of the analyses done to date can be found in the 

publications located on the HSTS website (http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/hsts/).

For HSTS 2005, the initial release report, The Nation’s Report Card, America’s High School 

Graduates, Results from the 2005 NAEP High School Transcript Study, provides analyses on course 

credits, grades, and NAEP achievement. The analyses look at graduates based on gender, race/ethnicity, 

parent education, and performance over time. The analyses discussed in the HSTS 2005 initial release 

report represented high school graduates with complete transcripts. Students whose transcripts did not 

include course-by-course data for at least 3 full years of high school were excluded. To be consistent with 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

The 2005 High School Transcript Study 

 74 User’s Guide and Technical Report 

other published analyses, the following rules were adopted for including and excluding students in the 

analyses that produced the tables:34

1. Both public and private school graduates were included. 

2. Students with special education diplomas, certificates of attendance, and certificates 

of completion were excluded. Certificates of completion indicate that a student 

completed the necessary school requirements for graduation, but failed to successfully 

complete a required state graduation exam. 

3. Graduates with disabilities who received regular or honors diplomas (i.e., those who 

were not screened out by rule 2) were included. 

4. Graduates with fewer than 16 Carnegie Units were excluded. A Carnegie Unit was a 

factor used to standardize all credits indicated on transcripts across the study. The 

Carnegie Unit is defined as the number of credits received for 120 hours of classroom 

instruction over the course of a year. 

5. Graduates with zero English credits were excluded. 

Prior to finalizing the data file, transcript records were subject to quality control procedures 

that listed transcripts that needed to be examined because the transcript records were inconsistent with the 

student’s exit status. In a few cases, it was determined that a student initially recorded as a graduate had 

not actually graduated, and the student’s exit status was revised accordingly. Among students with 

transfer courses, it was sometimes determined that, although a student had fewer credits than were 

required to graduate, the transcript had all the other attributes of a graduated senior. These attributes 

included student exit status, graduation date, GPA, and class standing. Credits from transfer schools may 

not have been recorded on the transcript, or the transferred credits may have had a different credit 

assignment than the school of graduation. In these cases, if a careful review of the transcript and the data 

files showed no data entry or coding errors, and the lack of credits resulted from missing or improperly 

converted Carnegie credits for the transfer courses, the record was updated. An additional transcript 

record with undifferentiated credit was added, or the existing transfer credit records were modified to 

assign the actual number of credits the graduate had taken. 

In summary, for a transcript to be included in the analyses in the initial release report, it had 

to meet three requirements: (1) the graduate graduated with either a standard or honors diploma, (2) the 

graduate’s transcript contained 16 or more Carnegie credits, and (3) the graduate’s transcript contained 

 

34 An exception to this is that the 2005 initial release report contains an analysis of graduates with disabilities that included those graduates 

receiving special education diplomas and certificates of attendance in addition to those receiving honors or standard diplomas.

more than 0 Carnegie credits in English courses. These additional restrictions reduced the number of 2005 

graduates in sample used in the report from 27,051 graduates to 26,525 graduates. 

For HSTS 2000, there are two publications containing many comparisons and analyses. The 

first publication, The High School Transcript Study: A Decade of Change in Curricula and Achievement, 

1990–2000, is a printed report available from the National Center for Education Statistics via its website 

(http://nces.ed.gov/pubsearch/pubsinfo.asp?pubid=2004455) and EDPUBS. This report analyzes the 

changes in course credits earned and GPAs achieved by high school graduates from HSTS 1990 to HSTS 

2000. It also looks at correlation values between the NAEP 2000 mathematics and science assessment 

scores with various student coursetaking variables. The second publication, The 2000 High School 

Transcript Study Tabulations: Comparative Data on Credits Earned and Demographics for 2000, 1998, 

1994, 1990, 1987, and 1982 High School Graduates, is available on the NCES website, NCES 

Publication #2007463. It details the number of credits earned by high school graduates in various school 

subject fields and by various school and graduate characteristics, including gender, race/ethnicity, 

academic track, type of locale, school type (public/private), and region of the country. It also contains 

tables covering graduation requirements, grade point averages, and NAEP 2000 mathematics and science 

assessment scores. 

The HSTS 2005 datasets offer new possibilities for data analyses that previous HSTS 

datasets could not offer. Researchers can analyze relationships between the mean NAEP mathematics and 

science assessment scores by whether or not graduates took selected mathematics or science courses. 

Incorporating the HSTS 2005 datasets with the previous HSTS datasets, researchers can track courses by 

grade level across the transcript studies to determine whether course curricula have changed in the past 

2 decades. Linking the HSTS files with the corresponding NAEP student questionnaires provides new 

educational-related variables for data analysis, including parents’ education levels, computer usage at 

home and school, and time spent on homework.

Instructions to Supervisors on filling out the School Information Form (SIF) 

1. The SIF is in two parts. Part 1 is to be filled out over the phone with the HSTS School 

Coordinator. You will call the School Coordinator and tell him/her about HSTS and go through 

Part 1 of the form and set up a day to visit the school. 

2. Part 1 of the SIF is scripted, but you may deviate from the script to address specific aspects of 

the study, answer questions in detail, etc. 

3. One section of the SIF script is to ask the School Coordinator the name of a person at the 

school who is very knowledgeable about the content of the course catalog, the transcript 

layout, and details about classes offered at the school. Often, this person is the registrar. 

After you get this person’s name, you should call him/her to let him/her know that you will be at 

the school and would like to spend some time with him or her obtaining detailed information on 

the school’s courses. Tell him/her that you will send a questionnaire so that he/she will know 

what types of questions to expect when you visit. This questionnaire will contain some, but not 

all of the questions contained in Part 2 of the SIF. 

4. You will also be asking the HSTS coordinator to send you a copy of the 2004-2005 catalog 

before your visit to the school, if a catalog has not already been received at Westat. Assuming 

that the coordinator sends you the catalog, please review the catalog and fill out as many of 

the Part 2 SIF questions from the catalog as you can in order to minimize the burden on the 

school. 

5. You will visit the school on the agreed-upon date and you will meet with the School 

Coordinator to complete information on the SIF (such as where the administration schedule 

will be kept, whether the School Coordinator works in the summer, etc.) and you will obtain 

sample transcripts. 

6. After meeting with the School Coordinator, you will meet with the registrar or other person 

knowledgeable about school’s courses. You will spend some time filling out the remainder of 

Part 2 of the SIF.

Is School Participating in NAEP?_______________ Assessment Date: _______________ 

Hello, this is [FIRST NAME, LAST NAME] from the National Assessment of Educational Progress or 

NAEP. I’m calling to tell you about another aspect of NAEP. It is the High School Transcript Study 

or HSTS. The HSTS is being conducted to provide educational policy makers with information 

regarding current course offerings and course-taking patterns in secondary schools. This study will 

also permit researchers to examine the relationship between course-taking patterns and educational 

achievements. We would like to designate a School Coordinator for this study, someone who is 

knowledgeable about the courses offered at your school. 

1. Would you be the contact person or the School Coordinator for HSTS? 

Yes [GO TO #2] No 

If “No” Who will be the HSTS contact at the school? And at what phone number can I 

reach him/her? 

Name:________________________ Telephone number:____________________________ 

Thank you so much for your help. [END CALL] 

2. I’d like to explain a little bit about the HSTS to you. Do you have about 10 minutes to talk 

right now? 

Yes [GO TO #3] No 

If “No” When is the best day and time for me to reach you to discuss this study? Again, I 

just need about 10 minutes. 

Date:________________________ Time:_______________________________ 

Thank you so much. I will talk to you soon. [END CALL] 
B-4 

3. There are two phases to the High School Transcript Study. During phase 1 in the month of 

March, I would like to visit your school to collect information about your school, including 

course catalogs and three sample transcripts. For phase 2, in the summer, I or another 

HSTS representative will return to the school to obtain transcripts of those students who 

were selected for the math or science portion of NAEP. Absolutely no student time is 

involved in the study and confidentiality of the materials we collect will be strictly maintained. 

You will be reimbursed for all transcripts. [IF 2004-2005 CATALOG WAS NOT SENT TO 

WESTAT: At this time I’d like to collect the current course catalog for your school. Ideally, 

the catalog should contain all courses offered at the school including honors, vocational, 

remedial, special education, and off-campus courses. Our preference would be to obtain a 

school-level catalog with course names and content descriptions, if such a catalog is 

available.] 

[IF CATALOG HAS NOT BEEN SENT TO WESTAT] Are copies of the current year’s 

school-level catalog available? 

Yes [GO TO #4] No 

If “No” When will they be available? Date: __________________________________ 

[If no school-level catalog available, ask about obtaining another type of catalog. Please 

check which type of catalog is available. The order of preference with the most desirable 

type of catalog listed first is: 

___school-level catalogs that provide course names and content descriptions 

___district-level catalogs that provide course names and content descriptions for this 

particular school clearly marked 

___course list by department that includes general descriptions of course offerings by 

department 

___course lists without content descriptions 

___district-level catalogs without school-level identification 

4. [IF CATALOG HAS NOT BEEN SENT TO WESTAT] In what format or formats is the most 

current catalog available – In hardcopy, on a website, or in an electronic file? 

In hardcopy [GO TO #4a] On a web site [GO TO #4b] In an electronic file [GO TO #4C] 

4a. If I send you a pre-addressed envelope, would you please send me a copy of the 

current course catalog? 

Yes [ASK FOR ADDRESS TO MAIL ENVELOPE TO] Address: _________________ 

___________________________________________________________________ 

4b. What is the web site address that lists the catalog? __________________________ 

4c. Would it be possible for you to email me the electronic file of the catalog? My email 

address is [EMAIL ADDRESS] 
B-5 

5. I would also like to obtain copies of the three prior years’ catalogs. Again, the catalogs 

should contain all courses offered at the school including honors, vocational, remedial, 

special education, off-campus courses, distance learning courses, and ESL courses. Our 

preferences, if available would be school-level catalogs with course names and content 

descriptions. Do you think I will be able to obtain copies of the 2003-2004, 2002-2003, and 

2001-2002 catalogs when I visit? 

Yes No or I don’t know Other (only certain years, etc.):_____________ 

5a. In what format or formats are these catalogs available – in hardcopy, on a web site, 

or in an electronic file? 

[CIRCLE YEARS CATALOG IS IN THIS FORMAT] 

In hardcopy: 2003-2004 2002-2003 2001-2002 

On a web site: 2003-2004 2002-2003 2001-2002 

In an electronic file: 2003-2004 2002-2003 2001-2002 

6. As I mentioned earlier, when I visit your school, I would also like to obtain three sample 

transcripts for students who have already graduated. Before I leave the building I will be 

removing identifying information from the transcripts. The sample transcripts should reflect 

one with regular courses, one with honors courses, and one with special education courses. 

If there are other special programs offered at the school (IB, performing arts, etc.), I’d 

appreciate seeing transcripts that include these programs [these could be the same three 

transcripts or different ones]. The transcripts should also include grades for course taken. 

Will I be able to obtain such transcripts when I visit? 

Yes No 

 (NOTE to supervisor: if you find a school that cannot provide transcripts that meet these 

criteria (e.g. the school uses a standards-based transcript), please probe to see if the 

information can be obtained in some other fashion, If not, please notify your field manager as 

soon after completion of the form as possible, so that a decision about the feasibility of 

including this school in HSTS can be made.)

_________________________________________________________________________ 

7. In addition to collecting the course catalogs and transcripts, I will need to spend some time 

with someone at your school who is very knowledgeable about the details contained in the 

catalogs, the transcripts and related school information. If you are not that person, can you 

tell me the best person to talk to about this information? I would like to give him or her a call 

in advance of my visit and send him or her some information so he/she knows what to expect 

when I visit. 

Name:________________________ Telephone Number: __________________________ 
B-6 

8. After graduation, we will return to obtain transcripts of the 12th grade students who were 

selected for NAEP mathematics or science. No student time is involved, confidentiality is 

strictly maintained, and you will be reimbursed for all of the transcripts copied. During my 

initial visit, I would also like to insert disclosure notices as markers in these 12th grade 

student files. 

Comments: ________________________________________________________________ 

_________________________________________________________________________ 

_________________________________________________________________________ 

_________________________________________________________________________ 

_________________________________________________________________________ 

9. Our normal procedures for the transcript study, as specified by FERPA, is to provide FERPA 

notices for each sampled student’s file, but not to notify parents of their child’s inclusion, 

because no student time is involved and all transcript information is collected anonymously. 

Is there any reason that we should use different procedures in your school? 

 

Yes No 

[PARENT INFORMATION AND CONSENT LETTERS ARE AVAILABLE IF THE SCHOOL 

INSISTS ON HAVING PARENTS LETTERS]

10 Would [date in March] date work for you for me to visit your school? Remember that I will 

need to spend some time with you or [name of Registrar]. 

Yes [GO TO #10a] No 

If NO, what date would work for you in March? ______________________ 

 10a. What time should I arrive?___________________ 

11. As part of the HSTS this year, we are collecting information about what textbooks are being 

used in high school mathematics and science courses. I will mail you these forms in 

advance of my visit and will ask you to fill them out or have someone else, such as the 

chairpersons for the mathematics and science departments, fill them out and then fax them 

to the phone number on the form. 

12. Thank you so much for speaking with me today. I will be sending you a summary of the High 

School Transcript Study, the Textbook forms, as well as envelope for you to send me your 

catalog (if applicable). I will also be calling [REGISTRAR’S NAME] to let him/her know what 

kind of questions to expect from me when I visit your school. Good bye.

Quality Checks for the HSTS Sample: Comparison 

of the Full HSTS School Sample to the 

Responding HSTS School Sample 
N-1 

APPENDIX N. QUALITY CHECKS FOR THE HSTS SAMPLE: 

COMPARISON OF THE FULL HSTS SCHOOL SAMPLE TO 

THE RESPONDING HSTS SCHOOL SAMPLE 

To study the potential for nonresponse bias, we compared selected school characteristics by 

comparing the distribution of the weighted full original sample to the final sample with and without 

nonresponse adjusted weights. There are two comparisons: of the main ‘unlinked’ HSTS responding 

school sample, and of the ‘linked’ NAEP-HSTS responding school sample. The latter is actually a subset 

of the former, as a school is required to be a respondent in both the HSTS study and in the NAEP study to 

be in the linked school sample. 

The tables in this section present weighted aggregations, weighted percentages and weighted 

means for the full HSTS school sample, the responding unlinked schools, and the responding linked 

schools. The weights include the original school base weight (reciprocal of the probability of selection), 

and the grade enrollment of the school1

. If the responding school sets with their nonresponse adjusted 

weights are representing the full school sample without bias then there should be ‘balance’ in the 

weighted estimates: the full school sample and the two responding school samples should be estimating 

the same population values. 

The differences between these sets of weighted estimates give an indication of the potential 

for nonresponse bias that has been introduced by nonresponding schools with no participating substitute. 

We computed a standard error for these differences by concatenating the two files and treating them as 

one file with one set of weights. The first 'half' of the concatenated file consists of all originally sampled 

schools, with the replicate weights being the grade-enrollment-adjusted school base weights. The second 

'half' of the concatenated file consisted of responding schools only, with the replicate weights being the 

grade-enrollment-adjusted school-nonresponse-adjusted weights. Note that responding original schools 

will be represented twice on these concatenated files, with different weights for each of the two records 

for the school. The standardized difference is the difference divided by this computed standard error. 

Under the null hypothesis that the two estimators are estimating the same population value (i.e., there is 

no nonresponse bias), these standardized differences should have a distribution reasonably close to that of 

a t-distribution, with appropriate degrees of freedom based on the number of first-stage sample units. The 

 

1

 The estimates are of school population totals that are weighted by the school’s grade enrollment (so that the totals are actually of students). 
N-2 

p-values are two-sided corresponding to this test that the population difference is zero, as against the twosided alternative2

. 

Tables N-1 and N-2 present weighted aggregations for public schools, private schools, 

public and private schools together, and weighted percentages by Census region and school-wide Title I 

status for public schools, school type for private schools, and weighted percentages by type of locality for 

public and private schools combined together.

 It should be noted that all p-values throughout this paper are based on the normal distribution (i.e., infinite degrees of freedom). In reality, the 

degrees of freedom are no more than the number of replicates (62), and in some subgroups considerably less. For this reason, t-statistics with 

absolute values in the general range of 2.0 through 2.5 are registered with p-values less than 5%, but might have non-significant p-values if the 

degrees of freedom were computed exactly.

Transcript Study (HSTS), 2005. 

It appears that the weighted responding (linked and unlinked) sample is about 2% on the 

high side with regard to central city schools, with urban fringe/large town schools 2% lower. 

Tables N-3 and N-4 present weighted aggregations for Conservative Christian schools by 

Census region, and Other Private schools by Type of Location. In both of these cases, significant chisquare tests for non-independence of NAEP school response for the NAEP 2005 twelfth grade private 

school sample was found at the .05 level. As HSTS school response is highly correlated to NAEP school 

response, we will check these tables for significant differences after weighting adjustments for HSTS 

unlinked and linked school response as compared to the full HSTS school samples.

Transcript Study (HSTS), 2005. 

The means that are presented in Tables N-5 and N-6 are of the percentage of Black students 

in the school, the percentage of Hispanic students, the percentage of Asian students, and the percentage of 

Native American students, the median household income (1999) of the ZIP Code area where the school is 
N-5 

located, and type of location (with levels treated as continuous3

). The sociodemographic and geographic 

aggregations as presented in the first two parts of the table are generally done in NAEP analyses. The 

NAEP operational assessment aggregations as given in the third part of the table are special to this HSTS 

analysis, as the NAEP operational assessment scores will be available to contribute to this HSTS analysis. 

This is especially helpful in confirming that the loss of New York to the HSTS sample is not generating 

systematic biases (or at least we can confirm that the responding sample has generally the same levels in 

terms of NAEP operational assessment outcomes). The ‘full HSTS school sample’ in the case of the 

NAEP operational assessments are restricted to the overlap between the HSTS school sample and the 

responding NAEP sample. The comparison is only made between this set and the NAEP-HSTS linked 

responding school sample (which is also restricted to the overlap set between HSTS sample and 

responding NAEP sample). 

Tables N-5 through N-14 presents a comparison of the full HSTS school sample, the HSTS 

responding school sample (unlinked), and the NAEP-HSTS responding school sample (linked), with 

regard to school characteristics. Tables N-5 through N-9 present results for public schools, and Tables N10 through N-14 present results for private schools. The first three tables of each set (N-5 through N-7 for 

public schools and N-10 through N-12 for private schools) present aggregations for the full HSTS sample, 

the unlinked responding school sample, and the NAEP-HSTS linked responding school sample 

respectively, with the remaining two sets of each set presenting estimates of the differences (full vs. 

unlinked, full vs. linked). Note that the NAEP operational assessment comparisons do not include the 

unlinked HSTS set. Along with the estimates of the differences are p-values for the two-sided test of the 

null hypothesis that the difference is zero. 

The percentage of Hispanics in the Northeast is somewhat lower, the percentage of Blacks in 

the West somewhat higher, and the type of location higher (i.e., more rural) in the Northeast for the 

weighted responding linked and unlinked samples, compared to the full sample. The actual differences are 

small. 

The other private category has some differences between the weighted responding sample 

and the full sample. The type of location is higher in the responding sample (i.e., it is more rural), and the 

percentage of Blacks is lower in the responding sample. 

 

3

 The numeric levels of type of location which are combined into means are 1-Large city center, 2-Smaller city center, 3-Urban fringe large city, 

4-Urban fringe small city, 5-Large town, 6-Small town, 7-Rural. Thus a low mean indicates roughly relative urban status, a high mean indicates 

relative rural status.

APPENDIX O. 2005 HIGH SCHOOL TRANSCRIPT STUDY 

CLASSIFICATION OF SECONDARY SCHOOL COURSES 

HIERARCHICAL LISTING AND DETAILED STUB LIST 

This appendix presents the subject field taxonomy that provides the structure for grouping 

the high school transcript courses. The lists that follow identify the Classification of Secondary School 

Courses (CSSC) codes in each subject field category. These categories are referred to as “stubs” because 

they are associated with row labels, or stubs, in previously published tabulations. 

The subject field categories are organized according to the 14 subject categories established 

by Secondary School Taxonomy (SST).1

 Two categories have been added to the second level of the SST: 

Computer-Related Studies and Special Education. The Computer-Related Studies category belongs to the 

Academic group. It has four subcategories: Clerical and Data Entry, Computer Applications, Computer 

Science, and Computer and Network Hardware and Maintenance. All of the computer-related courses 

also appear in various math and vocational categories. They are counted only once, however, when 

calculating totals across multiple SST categories. 

The Special Education category belongs to the Personal/Other Courses group and includes a 

large number of courses that are usually open only to students with Individualized Educational Programs 

(IEP). Some special education courses also appear in other subject field categories. Because of changes 

made to the course definitions through the high school transcript studies, these courses are counted twice 

when calculating totals and subtotals. All other special education courses are counted only once when 

calculating totals across multiple SST categories. 

The Academic group includes an additional number of subcategories for some of its 

categories. These subcategories do not change the definition of any of the existing categories or 

subcategories, but provide a means for summarizing the data at a level that has proved useful in previous 

transcript studies. For example, because they may be of special analytic interest, some Academic subjects 

include subcategories for remedial/below grade level courses and Advanced Placement/International 

Baccalaureate/Honors courses.

Vocational Education, Office of Planning, Budget, and Evaluation, U.S. Department of Education (Berkeley: MPR Associates, Inc., February, 

1989). 
O-2 

An additional group of composite “stubs” have also been added to the SST. Created solely 

for tabulation purposes, the subcategories in this group do not reflect a list of courses, but instead a set of 

curriculum standards similar to those standards required for high school graduation. These standards 

include the “New Basics Curriculum” (STUB2002), which was recommended by the National 

Commission on Excellence in Education in their report A Nation at Risk, as well as minimal academic 

standards (STUB2004 and STUB2005) required by most states. In the HSTS 2005 restricted-use student 

database, these “stubs” indicate whether or not the student met the listed curriculum standards. 

For the 2005 HSTS, two new stubs and 18 new CSSC codes were added. Along with the 

Computer and Network Hardware and Maintenance subcategory mentioned earlier, a Personal Growth 

and Interpersonal Relationships subcategory was added to the Personal Health and Physical education 

category. The new CSSC codes included Advanced Placement courses in geography, Latin, and studio 

art, as well as codes for personal computer hardware and repair, electronic commerce, military drill team, 

leadership, and the Academic decathlon program. 

Note that the categories are hierarchical in nature. That is, course codes that appear in a 

subcategory also appear in the appropriate higher-order category. For example, the CSSC code for 

“Calculus” (270419) appears in the Calculus subcategory and the Mathematics category. The CSSC code 

for “Etymology” (230412) appears in the Survey English subcategory and the English category. 

The Hierarchical Listing that follows indicates in outline form the categories and 

subcategories as well as the composite stubs. The Detailed Stub List, which follows the Hierarchical 

Listing, is presented in the same order as the Hierarchical Listing. The Detailed Stub List is an exhaustive 

list of every code included in each category and each subcategory. It contains all valid CSSC codes, 

whether or not they appear in the current study. Previously used codes that have been dropped or 

reassigned have been included for the sake of completeness. This version of the SST can be applied to 

any study using the CSSC without the need for additional codes.

APPENDIX X. HSTS 2005 USER’S GUIDE AND TECHNICAL 

DOCUMENTATION GLOSSARY 

Accommodations Assessment accommodations are changes in testing 

materials or procedures that enable a student to 

participate in an assessment that allows knowledge and 

skills to be assessed rather than disabilities or limited 

English. 

AP Advanced Placement. The Advanced Placement 

Program is designed to prepare students to take the 

advanced placement examinations given by the 

Educational Testing Service (ETS). Students who pass 

these tests may be given credit and/or be exempted from 

requirements in colleges and universities based on their 

scores. Colleges and universities make their own rules 

regarding what tests to accept and the scores needed for 

credit or exemptions. 

Carnegie unit A factor used to standardize all credits indicated on 

transcripts across the study. A single Carnegie unit is 

equal to 120 hours of classroom time over the course of 

a year. 

Catalog A document compiled by a school or a district listing all 

available courses that are offered by the school and a 

description of those courses. Curriculum specialists 

reviewed catalogs and used them to determine the 

appropriate CSSC code for each course. 

Continuous sorting variable A sorting variable used in stratification that is 

continuous in nature, not discrete. For example, in the 

private school stratification, census division and type of 

location are discrete sorting variables, but proportion of 

minority enrollment is a continuous sorting variable. 

Continuous variable A data variable that has an infinite number of values. For 

example, percentage variables are considered to be 

continuous variables. Ranges can be assigned to 

continuous variables to make them discrete variables. 

Correlation A measure of the relation between two or more 

variables. Correlation coefficients can range from -1.00 

to +1.00. The value of -1.00 represents a perfect negative 

correlation while a value of +1.00 represents a perfect 

positive correlation. A value of 0.00 represents a lack of 

correlation. 
X-2 

Course Offerings file An HSTS data file that provides a comprehensive list of 

the courses offered in the schools included in the study. 

A CSSC code is associated with each course title. 

CSSC Classification of Secondary School Courses. A coding 

system employed for the purpose of standardizing HSTS 

transcripts. The CSSC is a modification of the 

Classification of Instructional Program (CIP) used for 

classifying college courses and contains 2,286 course 

codes. Each CSSC course code contains six digits. The 

first two digits identify the main program area, the 

second two digits represent a subcategory of courses 

within the main program area, and the final two digits 

define the specific course. For example, for the CSSC 

code 400522, the first two digits (40) define Physical 

Sciences, the middle two digits (05) define the 

Chemistry subcategory, and the final two digits (22) 

define the course Advanced Chemistry. 

Data files HSTS 2005 has produced a set of eight data files that are 

available on a restricted-use basis. These include the 

Master CSSC File, the Course Offerings File, the School 

File, the Student File, the NAEP Data File, the SD/LEP 

File, the Transcript File, and the Tests and Honors File. 

Diploma A document granted by a school indicating the student 

completed all the requirements for graduation. The type 

of diploma is indicated by the Exit Status. 

Discrete variable A data variable that has a limited number of values. For 

example, student gender is a discrete variable because 

students can only be male or female. 

Eligible student A student who meets the graduation criteria established 

for the HSTS sample. Eligible students graduated from 

high school with a standard, honors, or special education 

diploma, or they received either a certificate of 

completion or a certificate of attendance. Note this term 

applies only to the HSTS sample, not to the sample of 

HSTS students used in generating the results for this 

report. 

English language learner (ELL) A term used to describe students who are in the process 

of acquiring English language skills and knowledge. 

Some schools refer to these students using the term 

limited English proficient, or LEP. 
X-3 

Exclusion criteria Criteria adopted to exclude HSTS students who did not 

meet the graduation requirements established for 

analyses found in this report. Students with special 

education diplomas, certificates of attendance, and 

certificates of completion were excluded, as were 

students with zero English credits and students with 

fewer than 16 Carnegie units. 

Explicit stratification The organization of a population into parts achieved by 

building separate sampling frames, according to the set 

of variables under consideration. It is the stratification 

used for categorical variables, in contrast to implicit 

stratification, which is used for continuous variables. 

Exit status A code that describes the type of diploma the student 

received. 

Flags Markers used to indicate special features of a course, 

such as its relationship to other courses within a 

sequence, the language of instruction for the course, the 

level of the course, the location where the course was 

taught, and any enrollment restrictions (regular or 

disabled students). 

High School and Beyond A longitudinal study following cohorts of the 1980 high 

school sophomore class who because seniors in 1982 

from which the HSTS 1982 sample was drawn. Samples 

for subsequent studies were drawn from the 

corresponding NAEP samples. 

HSTS High School Transcript Study. A periodic study 

developed by NCES that provides the Department of 

Education and other education policymakers with 

information regarding current course offerings and 

students’ coursetaking patterns in the nation’s secondary 

schools. 

IB International Baccalaureate. A nonprofit educational 

foundation program consisting of a comprehensive 2-

year international curriculum that allows students to 

fulfill the requirements of their national or state 

education systems. 

Implicit stratification The organization of a population into parts achieved by 

sorting records in a file instead of explicitly separating 

the population units into different strata. Only one 

implicit stratification variable can be used at a time. It is 

the stratification used for continuous variables, in 
X-4 

contrast to explicit stratification, which is used for 

categorical variables. 

Imputation Imputation is often used in surveys to compensate for 

item nonresponse and involves replacing a missing value 

with a nonmissing value, typically generated from a 

statistical model. Imputation is used to reduce 

nonresponse bias in survey estimates, simplify analyses, 

and improve the consistency of results across analyses. 

Imputations should also preserve multivariate 

distributions. 

Jackknife method A method of replication used to compute the variance of 

statistics from complex samples. HSTS used a paired 

jackknife method. This method divides the sample into 

subsamples by excluding one unit at a time from a pair 

sampled within a stratum. 

Measure of size A value of measurement for a unit that determines that 

unit’s probability of selection within a probability 

proportional to size (PSS) sampling scheme. 

Multistage sample design A sample design that uses more than one stage of 

sampling. The NAEP 2005 sample design, for example, 

uses two stages of sampling: (1) a sample of schools 

from across the nation, and (2) a sample of students 

within each sampled school. 

NAEP National Assessment of Education Progress. A federally 

funded, ongoing, periodic assessment of educational 

achievement in the various subject areas and disciplines 

taught in the nation’s schools. It was developed by 

NCES. 

NAEP data file A HSTS data file that contains proficiency estimates 

(also described as plausible values) and sampling 

weights for each student who participated in the NAEP 

2005 mathematics and science assessments. These files 

contain NAEP scores for the 2005 high school graduates 

who participated in both the transcript study and either 

the NAEP mathematics or science assessment. All

students listed in the NAEP data file also appear in the 

student file. 

NAEP ID The 10-digit NAEP assessment booklet number used as 

an HSTS student ID number for students in schools fully 

linked to the NAEP assessment. 
X-5 

NAEP-linked A reference to students or schools that maintained their 

unique NAEP ID or school ID. 

NCES National Center for Education Statistics. The primary 

federal entity for collecting, analyzing, and reporting 

data related to education in the United States. 

NELS:88 National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988. A major 

longitudinal effort designed to provide trend data about 

critical transitions experienced by students as they leave 

middle school or junior high school, and progress 

through high school and into postsecondary institutions 

or the work force. It started as a nationally representative 

sample survey of 8th-graders in 1988, with follow-up 

surveys in the years 1990, 1992, 1994, and 2000. 

NSLP National School Lunch Program. A program providing 

free or reduced-priced school meals to children from 

households meeting federal income guidelines. 

Percentage A relative measure of how often the value(s) of a 

variable appears within a category as compared to all 

values of that variable. 

Poststratification An estimation method that adjusts the sampling weights 

so that they add to specified population totals 

corresponding to the levels of a particular response 

variable. 

Probability proportional to size sampling A sampling method in which the probability of selecting 

a unit is directly proportional to the unit’s size. In 

NAEP, schools are selected with probabilities 

proportionate to estimated grade enrollment. 

Probability sample A sample drawn from a population using a random 

mechanism so that every element of the population has a 

known chance of ending up in the sample. 

Proportionate sampling A variation of stratified random sampling. Proportionate 

sampling strategies begin by stratifying the population 

into relevant subgroups and then random sampling 

within each subgroup. The number of participants from 

each subgroup is equal to their proportion in the 

population. 
X-6 

PSU Primary sampling unit that served as the first stage in the 

NAEP multistage sample for previous high school 

transcript studies. For HSTS 2005, however, the school 

sample served as the first stage. 

Replicate estimate An estimate of the population quantity based on the 

replicate subsample using the same estimation methods 

used to compute the full sample estimate. 

Replicate sample A sample derived by deleting a subsample of the 

originally observed sample where the subsampling 

procedure depends on the replicate method. 

Replicate weight The weight assigned to an observation for a particular 

replicate subsample. 

Replicates A term often used to refer to either the replicate sample 

or the replicate estimate, depending on context. 

Replication method A method of drawing a replicate subsample and 

weighting the observations that includes balanced 

repeated replication, jackknife replication, and bootstrap 

replication. 

Response A possible value, or set of possible values, for a catalog 

variable, as defined by the Electronic Codebook (ECB) 

software. For continuous variables, which have an 

infinite set of possible values, a category will list a range 

of values. For discrete variables, which have a finite set 

of possible values, a category most likely will represent 

a single value, but it can also represent a range of values. 

Sample A subset of a population whose characteristics are 

studied to gain information about the entire population. 

NAEP assesses a representative sample of students each 

year, rather than the entire population of students. 

Sampling error The standard deviation of the estimate, used to measure 

the precision of the estimate. 

Sampling frame The full list of possible units from which the sample is 

selected. 

School base weight The initial weight given to a school for sampling 

purposes. It is the inverse of the school’s probability of 

selection. 
X-7 

School file An HSTS data file providing detailed information on the 

schools from which students were sampled. Where 

available, it includes data taken from the NAEP School 

Questionnaire. 

School Questionnaire A survey form that collects information about school, 

teacher, and home factors that might relate to student 

achievement. It was completed by a school official 

(usually the principal) as part of NAEP for the NAEP 

participating schools. 

SD/LEP file An HSTS data file that provides detailed information on 

students with disabilities and/or English language 

learners (formerly known as students with limited 

English proficiency). 

SD/LEP Questionnaire Formerly known as the Individualized Education 

Plan/Limited English Proficiency (IEP/LEP) 

Questionnaire, this survey form includes information 

collected from school staff about students with 

disabilities and students with limited English 

proficiency. The SD/LEP Questionnaire was completed 

for students sampled for NAEP and identified by the 

school as having a disability and/or limited English 

proficiency. Schools were asked to have the person most 

knowledgeable about a student complete the 

questionnaire. In large schools, this person was typically 

a counselor, a special education teacher, or a teacher of 

English as a Second Language. In smaller schools, this 

person was typically a classroom teacher. 

Secondary School Taxonomy The framework initially used by HSTS for analyzing 

transcript data. The taxonomy divides high school 

coursework into three distinct curricula: Academic, 

Vocational, and Personal/Other. Academic curricula 

include six course subjects: mathematics, science, 

English, social studies, fine arts, and foreign languages. 

Vocational curricula include three course subjects: 

consumer and homemaking education, general labor 

market preparation, and specific labor market 

preparation. Personal/Other curricula include five course 

subjects: general skills, personal health and physical 

education, religion, military science, and all other 

courses. HSTS added two additional course subjects: 

computer-related studies (under Academic) and special 

education (under Personal/Other). 
X-8 

Serpentine sorting A method of sorting in which records are ordered in an 

alternating ascending and descending pattern, so that any 

two consecutive records in the sorted file are more 

similar with respect to their values of the sort variables 

than in traditional sorting. This technique reduces the 

estimates of variance when replication methods, such as 

the jackknife method, are used. 

Session type A designation that indicates which NAEP subject or 

subjects were assessed during the given session. 

SIF School Information Form. The SIF was completed by 

the field worker or a school staff member or sometimes 

by both. The completed SIF contained information about 

the school in general, about sources of information 

within the school (if needed to complete HSTS data 

collection), about the course description materials, about 

graduation requirements and grading practices at the 

school, and about the format of the school’s transcripts. 

Sort variable A variable within a data file that is used to sort the data 

file. For the NAEP school sample, before the sample 

was selected, a school-level characteristic was used to 

sort the schools, one that was continuous in nature. 

Pass/fail or correct/incorrect indicators are not effective 

sort variables because they include only two categories. 

Stub A CSSC category. With 2,286 codes in the CSSC, it is 

neither practical nor desirable to include estimates of 

each possible code in each of the tables. Instead, it is 

often more useful to analyze the courses in larger groups 

such as English, social studies, mathematics, or science. 

There are 16 main stubs that represent each subject area 

category represented by the Secondary School 

Taxonomy. As there is also interest in finer divisions of 

these groups (e.g., biology, chemistry, and physics 

within science), along with combinations of core 

curricula credits, there are 86 additional stubs that 

provide more specific course categories. 

Student file An HSTS data file providing demographic information 

on all students in the study, as well as summaries of their 

coursetaking histories, derived measures of academic 

achievement, and sampling weights. 

Student ID number A 10-digit ID number used to track students in HSTS. 

For schools fully linked to NAEP, this number matches 

the NAEP assessment booklet number. For students in 
X-9 

schools where the link to NAEP was lost and for 

students in schools that did not participate in NAEP, this 

is a unique 10-digit number beginning with 990. 

Summary Report An HSTS report providing tables summarizing the 

coursetaking patterns of 2005 high school graduates and 

comparing them to those of their counterparts in 1990, 

1994, 1998, and 2000. The report also provides tables 

describing the relationship of the coursetaking patterns 

of 2005 high school graduates to their proficiencies in 

mathematics and science as measured by the 2005 

National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP 

2005). 

Systematic sample A sample selected by a systematic method. It is also 

called an Nth name selection technique. After the 

required sample size has been calculated, every Nth 

record is selected from a list of population members. 

Systematic equal probability sample A systematic sample where each unit has an equal 

probability of being selected. 

Taxonomy The classification of items into larger categories. In 

HSTS, the items are specific secondary school courses 

(e.g., composition, first-year algebra, Advanced 

Placement biology, American government) that are 

classified into 16 course subject categories, as organized 

according to the Secondary School Taxonomy, based on 

course content and level. 

Tests and Honors file An HSTS data file providing a list of honors and 

standardized test results, including SAT and ACT 

scores, that were found on the transcripts. 

Transcript A student’s secondary school record containing courses 

taken, grades, graduation status, and attendance. In 

addition, it often includes assessments such as PSAT, 

SAT, ACT, and honors. 

Transcript file An HSTS data file providing a complete list of all 

courses appearing on the transcripts of students sampled 

in the study. 

TRF Transcript Request Form. For each school, the field 

worker was given a TRF. In addition to the ID, it 

contained columns for entering graduation status (Exit 

Status) and the student’s gender, birth month and year, 

race/ethnicity, SD status, LEP status, Title 1 services 
X-10 

receipt, and National School Lunch Program 

participation. The TRF was used in the data entry, 

verification, quality control, and other stages of the 

study. There are two versions of the form, one used for 

schools with a link to NAEP (Version 1) and one for 

non-NAEP participating schools (Version 2). 

Two-stage probability-based sample A sample design that uses two stages of sampling. The 

NAEP 2005 national sample was a two-stage 

probability-based sample. The schools were the firststage sampling units selected with probability 

proportional to a measure of size based on the estimated 

grade-specific enrollment in the schools. The second 

stage involved selection of students within schools and 

their assignment to session types. 

Type of location A field attached to each school that defines the type of 

locality of the school’s community. Its values include 

large city, medium-sized city, urban fringe of large city, 

urban fringe of medium-sized city, large town, small 

town, and rural.

User’s Guide and Technical Report A document detailing procedures used to collect and 

summarize the data. It also provides information needed 

to use all publicly released data files produced by the 

study. 

Vocational course A school course that provides students with the 

academic and technical knowledge and skills needed for 

further education and/or careers requiring less than a 

bachelor’s degree. At the high school level, vocational 

courses include courses in consumer and homemaking 

education, general labor market preparation, and specific 

labor market preparation. 

Weighted frequency The number of times the value(s) of a variable appears 

within a catalog, as defined by the weights assigned to 

the data file records. 

Weighted percentage A relative measure of how often the value(s) of a 

variable appears within a catalog as compared to all 

values of that variable, as defined by the weights 

assigned to the data file records.
