Spaeth 9614000 Since 1989, the investigator has produced two major data bases on the U.S. Supreme Court. The first, which is updated annually, relies exclusively on the published Reports of the Court's decisions. The second includes unpublished conference votes and opinion assignments of the justices who served during the Vinson (1946-1952) and Warren (1953-1968) Courts. This project will update and extend the previous work to encompass the Burger Court (1969-1986). Inclusion of the Burger Court conference vote data will provide investigators with the complete voting record of each justice in every case in which a conference vote was cast during a 40-term period,. 1945-1986. Analysts will have access to a standardized, highly reliable data file with which they may compare individual and Court voting across vote types, as well as voting changes of individual justices from one type of vote to another. Because a raft of background, chronological, substantive, outcome, and opinion variables are associated with these votes, the richness of the resulting data will enhance the formulation of theory and the testing of hypotheses. %%% Since 1989, the investigator has produced two major data bases on the U.S. Supreme Court.

Spaeth 9614000自1989年以来，调查员已经制作了两个关于美国最高法院的主要数据库。 第一份报告每年更新一次，完全依赖已发表的法院判决报告。 第二份包括未发表的会议投票和在文森法院（1946-1952年）和沃伦法院（1953-1968年）任职的法官的意见分配。 这个项目将更新和扩展以前的工作，包括汉堡法院（1969年至1986年）。 纳入伯格法院会议投票数据将为调查人员提供每位法官在40个任期内投票的每个案件中的完整投票记录。1945-1986. 分析师将可以访问一个标准化的，高度可靠的数据文件，他们可以比较个人和法院投票的投票类型，以及投票的变化，个别法官从一种类型的投票到另一种。 由于大量的背景、时间顺序、实质性、结果和观点变量与这些投票相关，因此所产生的丰富数据将增强理论的形成和假设的检验。 %自1989年以来，调查员已经制作了两个关于美国最高法院的主要数据库。 第一份报告每年更新一次，完全依赖已发表的法院判决报告。 第二部分包括未公布的会议投票和在文森（1946-1952）和沃伦（1953-1968）法院任职的大法官的意见分配。 这个项目将更新和扩展以前的工作，包括汉堡法院（1969年至1986年）。 纳入伯格法院会议投票数据将为调查人员提供每位法官在40个任期内投票的每个案件中的完整投票记录。1945-1986. 分析师将可以访问一个标准化的，高度可靠的数据文件，他们可以比较个人和法院投票的投票类型，以及个别法官的投票变化从一种类型的投票到另一种。 由于大量的背景、时间顺序、实质性、结果和观点变量与这些投票相关，因此所产生的丰富数据将增强理论的形成和假设的检验。 ***
