title: The Welfare Impact Of Collusion Under Various Industry Characteristics: A Panel Examination Of Efficient Cartel Theory
title: Archival Version

description: This collection focuses on the welfare impact of collusion under various industry characteristics. The data were assembled using publically available administrative records data, census/enumeration data and observational data from the industry level. Industries represented in this collection include asphalt, auto parts, brick, iron, paper-pulp, and rubber industries, as well as those dealing in other types of products and raw materials.
description: This research aimed to examine cartel performance in the United States under the National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933. Additionally, two distinct "efficient cartel" hypotheses were tested that claim inter-firm coordination can increase economic efficiency in industries with a large degree of avoidable fixed costs and/or variable output.
description: A monthly panel of data for 66 cartelized industries was used to perform a broad empirical test of the dynamics of the efficient-cartel thesis. Additionally, a 'second stage' regression was employed, which used estimated parameters from the first stage as dependent variables, to examine whether those industries that faced higher fixed costs and uncertainty of demand had significantly different welfare effect outcomes under collusion.

title: Personal Interview Transcripts for Research on Exploring Citizen Perspectives on Electronic Government-Citizen Relationships, January-May 2005
title: Archival Version

description: Citizens already engaged in online activities are more inclined to connect with their governments electronically. One question that has largely gone unanswered is: Does citizens' use of the Internet to interact with governments facilitate relationships between them and their governments? This key issue for e-governance is under-researched, so this survey explored the perspectives of citizens from a Queensland, Australia city through qualitative interviews. Findings indicate that citizens trust the e-government process, but not their governments. The data for this study is comprised of transcripts of each respondent's answers to a series of questions. Quantitative survey research is needed to confirm these results, which are important both for relationship theory, governments, and citizens.

title: Baltimore Travel Survey, 1977
title: Archival Version

description: The Baltimore Travel Survey, 1977, is a comprehensive collection of demographic characteristics and travel patterns for 967 households in Baltimore, Maryland. The survey was conducted in May and June of 1977; survey results have been maintained and distributed by the United States Federal Highway Administration. Survey participants were asked to provide detailed household information, including length of residency at current address, number of household occupants, type of dwelling unit, number of vehicles available to household occupants, and the body type of each vehicle. Respondents were also asked to provide information on their travel behavior during a 24-hour assessment period, including trip duration and frequency, trip purpose, departure and arrival times, mode of transportation, number of passengers, and parking cost. Demographic information for this collection includes age, sex, disability, race, spoken language, marital status, income, and educational attainment.
description: The data contain a weight variable (HHWEIGHT) that may be used for expanding the sample. Derived from the sampling rate within the household's stratum, the weight corrects for non-randomness in the sample selection process. For additional information, please see the Original P.I.

title: Archival Version

description: This data collection is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys that evaluate the Bush presidency and solicit opinions on a variety of political and social issues. Major topics covered include Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, the economy, the federal government, and the upcoming congressional election. Respondents were asked if they approved of the way Bush, King Hussein of Jordan, Mikhail Gorbachev, and Jesse Jackson were handling the situation caused by Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, how important it was for Iraq to withdraw from Kuwait, if they approved of Bush's decision to send American military forces to the Persian Gulf, if they thought Bush had been tough enough with Iraq, if the United States should strike first against Iraq, if the United States would have to get involved in a land war with Iraq, and if the economic boycott would make Iraq withdraw from Kuwait. Concerning economic issues, respondents were questioned about consumer prices and taxes. They were also asked for their opinions on which country was the strongest economic power, whether life was easier or harder for young people currently, and whether it would be easier or harder ten years from now. Other questions revolved around confidence in various American institutions, respondent's trust in the federal government, the level of ethics and honesty in politics, the degree to which public officials care about people like the respondent, and the importance of various political and social issues in deciding which candidate and political party to vote for on election day. Background information on respondents includes political alignment, 1988 presidential vote choice, registered voter status, education, age, religion, social class, marital status, number of people in the household, labor union membership, employment status, race, income, sex, and state/region of residence.

title: Mandatory Drug Offender Processing Data, 1987: New York
title: Archival Version

description: The National Consortium for Assessing Drug Control Initiatives, funded by the Bureau of Justice Assistance and coordinated by the Criminal Justice Statistics Association, collected drug offender processing data from the state of New York. The purpose of the project was to track adult drug offenders from the point of entry into the criminal justice system (typically by arrest) through final court disposition, regardless of whether the offender was released without trial, acquitted, or convicted. These data allow researchers to examine how the criminal justice system processes drug offenders, to measure the changing volume of drug offenders moving through the different segments of the criminal justice system, to calculate processing time intervals between major decision-making events, and to assess the changing structure of the drug offender population. For purposes of this project, a drug offender was defined as any person who had been charged with a felony drug offense. The data are structured into six segments pertaining to (1) record identification, (2) the offender (date of birth, sex, race, and ethnic origin), (3) arrest information (date of arrest, age at arrest, arrest charge code), (4) prosecution information (filed offense code and level, prosecution disposition and date), (5) court disposition information (disposition offense and level, court disposition, final disposition date, final pleading, type of trial), and (6) sentencing information (sentence and sentence date, sentence minimum and maximum). Also included are elapsed time variables. The unit of analysis is the felony drug offender.
