title: German Election Study, 1994: Pre-Election Study (Policy and Party Preference)
title: Version 1

description: This data collection is part of an omnibus study on German political attitudes and behavior, with a focus on the 1994 German Federal Parliament election. The series consists of two pre-election investigations (this study and GERMAN ELECTION STUDY, 1994: PRE-ELECTION STUDY [TREND INVESTIGATIONS] [ICPSR 2862]), the Politbarometer West (GERMAN ELECTION STUDY, 1994 [POLITBAROMETER WEST] [ICPSR 2843]), the Politbarometer East (GERMAN ELECTION STUDY, 1994 [POLITBAROMETER EAST] [ICPSR 2842]), and a post-election study (GERMAN ELECTION STUDY, 1994: POST-ELECTION STUDY [ICPSR 2860]). In this study, German citizens were asked to give their opinions regarding German political parties, the German federal government, and various topical political controversies. Among the topics covered were the following, derived from the summary appearing on the website of the Zentralarchiv fuer Empirische Sozialforschung an der Universitaet zu Koeln (English translation), at http://www.za.uni-koeln.de/: - satisfaction with the current federal government. - attitude toward a government led by the SPD (Sozialdemokratische Partei Deutschlands or Social Democratic Party) or CDU/CSU (Christlich Demokratischen Union Deutschlands or Democratic Christian Party/Christlich Soziale Union in Bayern or Bavarian Social Christian Union) as a prerequisite for positive economic development. - party and coalition preferences. - attitudes toward the speed limit, the so-called "large bugging operation," job creation programs, and assumed ability of the political parties in these controversies. - assessment of the probability of winning seats in the Federal Parliament by the FDP (Freie Demokratische Partei or Liberal Democratic Party), Alliance 90/Greens, and PDS (Partei des Demokratischen Sozialismus or Democratic Socialist Party). - intent to participate in the election, and present political leanings. - respondent's residential status and presence at home in the four days immediately preceding the interview. - whether the respondent owned a telephone and type of connection, a fax and modem for a PC, or an ISDN connection. - whether the respondent had a listing in the telephone directory. - union membership. - employment in the civil service.

This collection has not been processed by ICPSR staff. ICPSR is distributing the data and documentation for this collection in essentially the same form in which they were received. When appropriate, hardcopy documentation has been converted to machine-readable form and variables have been recoded to ensure respondents' anonymity.
The codebook is in German only.
The codebook is provided as a Portable Document Format (PDF) file. The PDF file format was developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated and can be accessed using PDF reader software, such as the Adobe Acrobat Reader.

title: Civil Justice Survey of State Courts, 1996
title: Version 1

description: In 1996, the Bureau of Justice Statistics awarded a grant to the National Center for State Courts to gather detailed information on tort, contract, and real property rights trial cases in 45 jurisdictions chosen to represent the 75 most populous counties in the nation. The result is this survey, which is a systematic examination of civil trial cases disposed in state general jurisdiction courts. The study expands the 1992 civil jury study, CIVIL JUSTICE SURVEY OF STATE COURTS, 1992 (ICPSR 6587), by specifically sampling bench and jury trial cases. Information gathered includes the type of case, the presence of legal representation, the type of litigation, the amount of compensatory damages awarded, the amount of punitive damages awarded, and case processing time.
description: ICPSR data undergo a confidentiality review and are altered when necessary to limit the risk of disclosure. ICPSR also routinely creates ready-to-go data files along with setups in the major statistical software formats as well as standard codebooks to accompany the data. In addition to these procedures, ICPSR performed the following processing steps for this data collection: Performed consistency checks.; Checked for undocumented or out-of-range codes..

 DS0: Study-Level Files 
 DS1: Main Data File for Part 1 
 DS2: FPC Factor for Wesvar PC Variance Estimation 
 DS3: JKN Factor for Wesvar PC Variance Estimation
description: Civil Justice Survey of State Courts: [United States] Series
description: The data collection contains 100 replicate weight variables (REPWT1 to REPWT100) appropriate for calculating sampling errors using the Wesvar PC variance estimation program, plus two variables, VARSTRAT and VARUNIT, that were developed as part of the processing for creating the replicate weights. The replicate weights were created by the jackknife method and the user must specify the JKN variance estimation procedure when using Wesvar PC. The JKN variance estimation procedure will not work correctly unless two factor files are attached to the Wesvar file. Users should download da2883.p2 and da2883.p3, change the file names to fpc96.txt and jknf96.txt, and attach both files to the Wesvar data file. In addition, the degrees of freedom should be set at 81 in Wesvar (100 replicate weights, 19 varstrat units) in order to calculate the correct confidence intervals.
description: Tort, contract, and real property cases in the 75 most populous counties in the United States.
description: A two-stage stratified sample was drawn, with 45 of the 75 most populous counties selected at the first stage. The top 75 counties account for about 37 percent of the United States population and about half of all civil filings. The sample consisted of tort, contract, and real property rights cases disposed by trial between January and December 1996. For each sampled case, a standard coding form was manually completed by court staff on-site to record information about litigants, case type, processing time, and award amounts.

title: Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data [United States]: Hate Crime Data, 1998
title: Archival Version

description: In response to growing concern about hate crimes, Congress enacted the Hate Crime Statistics Act of 1990. The Act required the Attorney General to establish guidelines and collect, as part of the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, data "about crimes that manifest evidence of prejudice based on race, religion, sexual orientation, or ethnicity, including where appropriate the crimes of murder and non-negligent manslaughter, forcible rape, aggravated assault, simple assault, intimidation, arson, and destruction, damage, or vandalism of property." Hate crime data collection was required by the Act to begin in calendar year 1990 and continue for 4 successive years. In September 1994, the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act amended the Hate Crime Statistics Act to add disabilities, both physical and mental, as factors that could be considered a basis for hate crimes. Although the Act originally mandated data collection for a total of five years, the Church Arson Prevention Act of 1996 amended the collection duration "for each calendar year," making hate crime statistics a permanent addition to the UCR program. As with the other UCR data, law enforcement agencies contribute reports either directly or through their state reporting programs. Information contained in the data include: number of victims and offenders involved in each hate crime incident, type of victims, bias motivation, offense type, and location type.

The data are organized in a hierarchical file structure. There are two record types, batch header and incident record. Each police agency represented in the file has a single batch header record. If a police agency reported hate crime incidents, then one incident record for each hate crime incident is listed in the file immediately after the corresponding batch header record. There are 53 variables for the batch header record and 60 variables for the incident record.
