 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): During the seven month period between the third quarter of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, nearly 700,000 American workers lost their jobs-on a monthly basis (Greenstone and Looney 2011). The Great Recession began in the United States in December of 2007, but blossomed into a global recession by 2009 (IMF 2009). Unlike previous recessions, which were marked by sharp declines in employment, The Great Recession (TGR) was coupled with a housing crisis of unprecedented scale (Ellen and Dastrup 2012) that predated (2006) the employment losses. Although The Great Recession (TGR) officially ended in 2009, positive job growth didn't return until the Spring of 2010 and housing prices did not begin to rebound until 2012. The effects of TGR continue to ripple throughout the United States, leaving our socio-economic landscape changed in significant ways. This exploratory proposal seeks to study a contemporaneous measure of population health-birthweight-and how it might have been affected by TGR. We will develop two unique sets of data that can be used in future studies of population health and health disparities. We also overcome many of the limitations in prior studies of recession and health, which we outline in our innovation section. Ultimately, our study will develop a model for assessing the effect of other dramatic social events on population health and health disparities by using geo-coded vital statistics data. Aim 1. To assess the level of childbirth selectivity during pre-recessionary, recessionary and post-recessionary periods Aim 2. To explore the impact of the great recession on birth outcome disparities Aim 3. To compare the effects of recession indicators on birth outcomes among mothers giving birth during non- recessionary and recessionary periods Our project will produce a data set with wide usability for studying the effects of recession at more precise geographies than previously possible; further, we will provide direct estimates of the total effect of recession on population infant health and its effect on birth outcome disparities. Our recession indicators database, and our code for producing sibling groups in birth certificate data will be made available to researchers for further study.

 描述（由申请人提供）：在2008年第三季度和2009年第一季度之间的七个月期间，近70万美国工人每月失去工作（Greenstone和Looney 2011）。大衰退于2007年12月在美国开始，但到2009年发展成为全球经济衰退（IMF 2009）。与以往的衰退不同，大衰退（TGR）伴随着前所未有的住房危机（Ellen和Dastrup 2012），这是在就业损失之前（2006年）。尽管大衰退（TGR）在2009年正式结束，但就业增长直到2010年春季才恢复，房价直到2012年才开始反弹。TGR的影响继续涟漪整个美国，使我们的社会经济格局发生了重大变化。 这一探索性的建议旨在研究人口健康的同期措施出生体重，以及它可能受到TGR的影响。我们将开发两套独特的数据，可用于未来的人口健康和健康差距的研究。我们还克服了以前关于经济衰退和健康的研究中的许多局限性，我们在创新部分对此进行了概述。最终，我们的研究将开发一个模型，通过使用地理编码的生命统计数据来评估其他重大社会事件对人口健康和健康差异的影响。目标1.评估衰退前、衰退期和衰退后时期的生育选择性水平。探讨大衰退对出生结果差异的影响。为了比较经济衰退指标对非经济衰退和经济衰退期间分娩的母亲的出生结果的影响，我们的项目将产生一个具有广泛可用性的数据集，用于研究经济衰退在比以前更精确的地理位置的影响;此外，我们将提供经济衰退对人口婴儿健康及其对出生结果差异的影响的总影响的直接估计。我们的经济衰退指标数据库，以及我们在出生证明数据中产生兄弟姐妹群体的代码将提供给研究人员进行进一步研究。
