Note: (1) The data belonging to the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 was previously archived as part of the National Longitudinal Surveys of Labor Market Experiences, 1966-1992 (ICPSR 7610). In efforts to make the National Longitudinal Survey (NLS) Series data more usable, the six cohorts comprising the NLS have been reorganized so that data and documentation for each study can now be found under separate ICPSR study titles. (2) The original National Longitudinal Surveys of Labor Market Experiences data and documentation files remain available in their original form. Please see ICPSR study 7610. (3) Please consult the codebook for important errata for the NLS Youth 1979 cohort.
