DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): For the past five years, the Minnesota Population Center has been engaged in a project to redesign the Integrated Public Use Micro data Series (IPUMS). IPUMS is a compatible series of large micro data samples of census and survey data spanning the period from 1850 to the present. Initially designed fifteen years ago, IPUMS is now one of the most widely used data sources in population research. This application seeks continued funding to support four areas of research and infrastructure development. 1) Database Expansion: IPUMS Redesign will incorporate the following files into the database as they become available: ACS and March Supplement of the CPS data, 2008-2012~ Puerto Rican censuses of 1910- 1930 and 1970-2000~ the Puerto Rican ACS~ and linked files for the CPS basic monthly survey, 1976 to the present. 2) Data and Metadata Improvement: Modernizing and upgrading the quality of IPUMS data and documentation is a top priority. IPUMS Redesign will support dozens of improvements, including: adding necessary clustering and stratification variables to allow reliable variance estimation~ enriching the machine- process able XML mark-up of the documentation~ and providing technical support and assistance to the Census Bureau to create IPUMS-compatible versions of all restricted-access census data from 1960 to 2000 for dissemination through Census Bureau Research Data Centers (RDCs). 3) User Support and Dissemination: IPUMS Redesign will continue to provide user support, training, and outreach and will harness the power and expertise of the IPUMS user community through a suite of web-based tools. 4) Data Access Infrastructure: IPUMS Redesign plans improvements in data access tools that will reduce researcher burden: consolidating multiple websites delivering U.S. census and survey micro data; allowing automated linking of micro data to summary file data and maps; providing enhanced variable search and retrieval; and improved online data analysis. The proposed expansion, improvement, and support of the database is directly relevant to the central mission of the National Institutes of Health as the steward of medical and behavioral research for the nation: IPUMS data are advancing fundamental knowledge about the nature of human population dynamics. Project Narrative IPUMS is a key component of American population and health data infrastructure. IPUMS Redesign will spark new health-related research on population growth and movement, fertility, mortality, and nuptiality, as well as the economic and social correlates of demographic behavior.

描述(申请人提供)：在过去的五年里，明尼苏达州人口中心一直致力于重新设计综合公共用途微观数据系列(IPUMS)的项目。IPUMS是从1850年至今的人口普查和调查数据的大型微观数据样本的兼容系列。IPUMS最初设计于15年前，现在是人口研究中使用最广泛的数据源之一。这项申请寻求继续提供资金，以支持四个领域的研究和基础设施发展。 1)数据库扩展：IPUMS重新设计时，将把下列文件纳入数据库：2008-2012年~波多黎各1910-1930年和1970-2000年人口普查的ACCS和3月份CPS数据补编~波多黎各ACS~和1976年至今的CPS基本月度调查的链接文件。 2)改进数据和元数据：使综合平台管理系统数据和文件的质量现代化并提高其质量是当务之急。综合普查表管理系统的重新设计将支持数十项改进，包括：增加必要的分组和分层变量以进行可靠的方差估计~丰富文件的机器可处理的可扩展标记语言标记~并为人口普查局提供技术支持和协助，以创建1960年至2000年所有受限访问人口普查数据的综合普查表兼容版本，以便通过人口普查局研究数据中心(RDC)传播。 3)用户支持和传播：IPUMS重新设计将继续提供用户支持、培训和外联，并将通过一套基于网络的工具利用IPUMS用户社区的力量和专门知识。 4)数据访问基础设施：IPUMS计划改进数据访问工具，以减轻研究人员的负担：整合提供美国人口普查和调查微观数据的多个网站；允许将微观数据自动链接到汇总文件数据和地图；提供增强的变量搜索和检索；以及改进在线数据分析。 数据库的拟议扩展、改进和支持与国家卫生研究院作为国家医学和行为研究管理者的核心使命直接相关：IPUMS数据正在推进关于人类人口动态性质的基本知识。 项目简介IPUMS是美国人口和健康数据基础设施的关键组成部分。IPUMS的重新设计将引发关于人口增长和流动、生育率、死亡率和婚礼以及人口行为的经济和社会相关性的新的健康相关研究。
