title: Physicians in Massachusetts: Views of the Massachusetts Health Care Reform Law, 2009
title: Version 1

description: The goal of this survey was to assess physicians' perceptions of the impact that the 2006 Massachusetts health care reform had had on their practices and their patients. To that end, the survey interviewed physicians in Massachusetts about their views in three areas: their overall support for the legislation, their views of its effectiveness on their own practices, and their views of its effects on health care throughout the state. Information on physician characteristics collected by the survey includes gender, race, Hispanic origin, specialty, year of graduation from medical school, type of practice setting, practice ownership, number of physicians in practice, number of beds in the hospital where most patients were admitted, percent of time spent on direct patient care, percent of patients on Medicaid or uninsured, percent of patients on Medicare, percent of patients belonging to minority groups, and ZIP code.

description: Physicians in Massachusetts.
description: The survey interviewed a random sample of physicians obtained from the SK&A database, a comprehensive list of physicians based on published association and trade directories as well as federal and state license files. Physicians were invited to participate in the study by means of a mailed letter and were offered an incentive ranging from $50 to $100 for completing the survey. The incentive amount was determined by the physician's specialty, as is standard practice in polls of physicians. All respondents were offered the opportunity to complete the poll by mail, Web, or telephone; all chose mail or Web. More physicians wanted to participate in the poll than expected, so the survey allowed those who wanted to complete the poll after the survey deadline to submit their responses with the understanding that they would not be provided with an incentive.

title: Charging and Sentencing Decisions Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines: A Three District Study, 1998-2000
title: Version 1

description: The Charging and Sentencing Decisions Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines: A Three District Study, 1998-2000 looks at federal sentencing practices and outcomes at the district level and uses quantitative and qualitative research techniques to describe and analyze charging, plea bargaining, and sentencing policies, practices, and outcomes. This research studies three United States District Courts: the District of Nebraska, the District of Minnesota, and the Southern District of Iowa. The primary objectives of this study are: (1) to test for inter-district disparity in sentencing; (2) to describe charging and plea bargaining practices and to identify the predictors of charging and plea bargaining decisions; and (3) to examine the effect of offender and case characteristics on sentence outcomes at the district level. Detailed data on the offender, the case, and the sentence was obtained from the USSC's Offender Datafile for each district for each year. Data was supplemented with information contained in the Presentence Investigation Report, the Sentencing Recommendation, the Order of Judgment, and other documents provided by each United States District Court. Judges, attorneys, and probation officers in each district were interviewed. This dataset includes basic demographic variables such as race, age, sex, marital status, and education level. Other data obtained includes substance use, offense type, criminal charges, physical and mental health treatment, and court and trial proceeding information.

title: State-Level Data on Limited Liability Companies (LLC), United States, 2004-2009
title: Version 1

description: The limited liability company (LLC) is much more popular a business entity in some states than in others. The potential explanations of this phenomenon was explored using a partly original set of cross-sectional state-level data. The dataset contains business entity filing statistics, data on formation fees, annual report fees, and franchise taxes for LLCs and business corporations, and data on particular features of state LLC statutes. It was found that formation fees, not taxes or substantive rules or anything else, explain the variation in LLC popularity best. The study that is based on the dataset, titled "For a Few Dollars Less: Explaining State-to-State Variation in Limited Liability Company Popularity," is not published yet.

title: Version 1

description: This data collection consists of individual-plant data from the Census of Manufactures, conducted by the United States Bureau of the Census, for 1929, 1931, 1933, and 1935. The purpose of this research was to analyze the economic behavior of the American industrial economy during the period 1929-1935, which spans the largest decline in demand ever to strike the manufacturing sector of the economy. This project created establishment panel data sets for the automotive, automotive parts, and textile industries.

In the 1929 "Census of Manufactures," 10 plants either did not respond or had census notations in the margins indicating that the figures were incorrect. Because of budgetary restrictions for census edits, there is the potential for more uncaught errors in the man-hours data. (For 1929, the census did not publish aggregate man-hours statistics.)

title: Trends in Occupational Sex and Race Composition, 1970, 1980, 1990 [United States]
title: Version 1

description: The Trends in Occupational Sex and Race Composition studies collected demographic information on occupational characteristics aggregated from census micro data for 1970, 1980, and 1990. The basic sample selection was for those persons 16 years of age and older who worked in the previous year (1969, 1979, or 1989), and who also worked in the civilian labor force during the reference week. Data provided for each year under observation were subdivided into four demographic sections: one section each providing information for the total labor force, the male labor force, the female labor force and a section titled the Race-Sex Specific labor force. For the 499 respondents, demographic information includes age, level of education completed, number of hours worked per week, industry of occupation, earnings and wages, and gender and race.

Because the data are provided in raw data format, these names are not in the data sets themselves. These names are often the same across the 1970, 1980, and 1990 codebooks. However, variable definitions across the years are not always identical. The original census technical documentation must be consulted for any study comparing variables across census years.
Since 1980 variable descriptions served as the standard, 1970 and 1990 occupational classification systems were translated into the 1980 scheme.

title: Interstate Hazardous Waste Shipments and Disposal Taxes
title: Version 1

description: This paper links the theoretical and empirical literatures on inter- jurisdictional tax and regulatory competition, focusing on the case of state hazardous waste disposal taxes. It begins by demonstrating that local environmental taxes can be inefficient, and that the inefficiency depends on the tax elasticity of polluters' responses. The paper then uses panel data from the Toxics Release Inventory to estimate the magnitude of the tax elasticities, and to demonstrate the empirical relevance of the theoretical inefficiency of local taxes.
