DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Panel Study of Income Dynamics is the premier dataset in the U.S. for studying how intergenerational processes contribute to individual well-being because of its prospective, repeated measures of individuals' economic characteristics, health, and living arrangements, its genealogical design, and its long panel length. This project designs and collects a 12 minute Family Roster and Family Transfer Module added to the 2013 PSID interview. This innovative module provides new, public-use data to understand the mechanisms by which economic advantage is transmitted across generations and makes the PSID the only long-term panel representative of the full U.S. population equipped for the study of life course and multigenerational exchanges of time, money and co-residence. The project has five objectives: First, we design a data collection that rosters all living children and parents of the heads and spouses of PSID households, obtains basic socio-demographic information on each such relative and collects two types of transfers: a) recent time and money transfers between PSID Heads and Wives, their older parents, and their adult children and b) larger transfers made at any time in the past, including help with college expenses, first home purchase, and other transfers of wealth. Second, we use these data to analyze how families share resources, with a focus on the effects of wealth and unemployment shocks on transfers between family members. Third, we link a subsample of PSID children and parents with information on transfers collected in 1988 and in the new module in 2013 to: a) examine variation in giving/receiving across families at two points in time and b) assess whether children who received time or money assistance from parents earlier in life are more likely to give help to parents later in life. Fourth, we explore the relative importance of two forms of transfers that parents make to their adult children - investing in children's higher education and providing inter vivos wealth transfers - in generating well-documented intergenerational correlations in economic attainment. Finally, we use the information collected in the roistering of parents, parents-in-law, and children to explore the impact of attrition on the overall characteristics of the PSID sample, on the intergenerational correlations in attainment, and on estimates of intergenerational transfers of time and money. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The PSID is the only long-term national panel equipped to study life course and multigenerational aspects of health and well-being. The proposed project will expand the scientific value of the PSID for the study of intergenerational family dynamics, including the investments parents make in their adult children's education and later life economic well-being and the care children give to older parents. These data will enhance researchers' ability to understand transfers of time and money across generations and over the life course, as well as provide data to help assess mechanisms for the transmission of economic advantage across generations.

描述（由申请人提供）：收入动态小组研究是美国研究代际过程如何有助于个人福祉的首要数据集，因为它对个人的经济特征，健康和生活安排进行了前瞻性的重复测量，其系谱设计，以及其长面板长度。该项目设计并收集了一个12分钟的家庭名册和家庭转移模块添加到2013年PSID面试。这个创新的模块提供了新的公共使用数据，以了解经济优势跨代传递的机制，并使PSID成为美国唯一的长期小组代表，用于研究生命历程和时间，金钱和共同居住的多代交流。该项目有五个目标：第一，我们设计了一个数据收集系统，将所有在世的儿童和父母登记在PSID家庭的户主和配偶的名册上，获得每一个此类亲属的基本社会人口信息，并收集两种类型的转移：a）PSID负责人和妻子、其年长的父母及其成年子女之间最近的时间和金钱转移，以及B）过去任何时候进行的较大转移，包括帮助支付大学费用、首次购房和其他财富转移。其次，我们使用这些数据来分析家庭如何分享资源，重点是财富和失业冲击对家庭成员之间转移的影响。第三，我们将PSID儿童和父母的子样本与1988年和2013年新模块中收集的转移信息联系起来：a）检查两个时间点上家庭之间给予/接受的变化，以及B）评估早年从父母那里获得时间或金钱援助的儿童是否更有可能在以后的生活中帮助父母。第四，我们探讨了父母对成年子女的两种形式的转移--投资于子女的高等教育和提供生者之间的财富转移--在产生有据可查的代际经济成就相关性方面的相对重要性。最后，我们使用的信息收集的父母，公婆，和孩子的花名册上探索的影响，摩擦的整体特征的PSID样本，代际相关性的实现，并估计代际转移的时间和金钱。 公共卫生相关性：PSID是唯一一个长期的国家小组，负责研究生命过程和多代人的健康和福祉。拟议的项目将扩大PSID的科学价值，用于研究代际家庭动态，包括父母对其成年子女的教育和晚年经济福祉的投资以及子女对老年父母的照顾。这些数据将提高研究人员理解跨代和生命过程中时间和金钱转移的能力，并提供数据帮助评估经济优势跨代传递的机制。
