Notes: The Current Population Survey (CPS) is a household sample survey conducted monthly by the Census Bureau to provide estimates of employment, unemployment, and other characteristics of the general labor force, estimates of the population as a whole, and estimates of various subgroups in the population. The entire non-institutionalized population of the United States is sampled to obtain the respondents for this survey series. The October files contain the core questions included in every Current Population Survey as well as an additional series of questions on school enrollment. The additional information includes: current grade if attending a public or private school, whether attending college full- or part-time at a two or four year institution, degree anticipated, year last attended a regular school, year graduated from high school, student mobility and time spent on homework by elementary and high school students, and noncollegiate post-secondary enrollment. Please note that some of the October files possess subtitles. This reflects a shift in Census Bureau policy toward the assignment of more explict titles to the various CPS surveys. Also, starting with 1984, the survey universe has been expanded to include all male members of the Armed Forces living in civilian housing units.

ICPSR data class: Class IV.
