title: Uniform Crime Reports: Offenses Known and Clearances by Arrest Time Series Data, 1965-1983
title: Version 1

description: The Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program Data is a system designed to monitor the incidence of crime and the activities of law enforcement agencies at the community level. Participating local law enforcement agencies throughout the nation report regularly (usually on a monthly basis) on the volume of selected crimes and arrests and also on the levels of police personnel and types of police activities. This collection consists of time series data relating to offenses known and clearances by arrest for the years 1965-1983, 1970-1983, and 1975-1983. Only those agencies that consistently reported over the three time periods of the study were included. Consistently reporting agencies were defined as those agencies that were in operation during the time of the study and submitted nine or more monthly reports during the calendar year for the three specified time periods. Variables include number of actual offenses reported to the police, the total number of offenses for each category cleared by arrest, and the number of clearances by arrest involving only persons under 18 years of age. Crimes covered are criminal homicide, forcible rape, robbery, assault, burglary, larceny-theft, and motor vehicle theft.

title: Social Order in Middletown, 1932-1975
title: Version 1

description: The purpose of this study was to examine crime over a period of 43 years in Muncie, Indiana, which has commonly been referred to as "Middletown" in social science studies. The unit of analysis is the criminal act charged. All charges were counted and appropriately categorized. The following rules were observed for cases involving multiple charges or multiple counts of single charges. First, each charge was counted separately when multiple charges were filed. Second, when a defendant was charged with multiple counts of a single charge, each count was considered to be a separate act and so recorded. Data are provided on year of criminal act charge, first, second, and third offenses charged, legal representation by public defender, amount of bail, nature of plea, and place and length of prison terms (Part 2). Other items specify city population, unemployment rate, and total jobs in nonfarm industries, as well as the number of police, reported charges and convictions for murders, rapes, assaults, and robberies, and the percentage of felons convicted for murder, rape, assault, and robbery that were incarcerated (Part 5). Additional variables provide the socioeconomic index, as well as other information on criminal cases such as initial charges, prior records and number of prior felony convictions, marital history, and work history of offenders, and prosecutors' recommended sentencings, actual number of months in jail, and probation and jail terms (Part 6). Demographic items specify age, sex, and race (Parts 2 and 6), as well as education and occupation (Part 6) of the alleged defendant.

title: National Health Interview Survey, 1984: Supplement on Aging, Multiple Cause of Death, 1984-1991
title: Version 2

description: This data file supplies date and cause of death data for sample persons included in the Supplement on Aging (SOA) to the NATIONAL HEALTH INTERVIEW SURVEY, 1984 (ICPSR 8659). It can also be used for the cohort included in the NATIONAL HEALTH INTERVIEW SURVEY: LONGITUDINAL STUDY OF AGING, 70 YEARS AND OVER, 1984-1989 (ICPSR 8719), a follow-up to the SOA. The file contains the date of death for 4,230 persons who died by the end of 1991. It also contains the cause of death for 2,515 persons who died by the end of 1989. Records of participants in the SOA were matched with the National Death Index only if the participant provided all the information after being told that it would be used for matching for 1984-1989. Of the 16,148 participants, 15,974 provided the information and their records were matched to the National Death Index for the years 1984-1989. Of those 15,974, a total of 3,113 matched either on all items (2,640) or on the critical items (473). Records of the 3,113 decedents were then matched with multiple cause of death files only for the years 1984-1989. This file contains the identification number for adding this information to the Supplement on Aging and the Longitudinal Study of Aging files. Also supplied are the underlying cause of death (up to eight multiple causes of death), whether an autopsy was performed, the place of death, and codes for the occupation and industry of the deceased, as reported on the death certificate.
