Abstract:
|
The Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) stopped collecting data in 2006 after having been in the field monthly since 1983. The SIPP had a long preparation phase - from 1976-1981, where it tested questionnaires, recall periods, respondent types, and processing systems. Reviewed by a National Academy of Sciences panel in 1993 and recommended as the data set to improve the measurement of income, poverty, and program participation on several occasions, SIPP, nevertheless, ended without achieving these goals. The distinguished panel, with substantial historical and practical knowledge of the SIPP program, will discuss the program goals, expectations, and disappointments, and discuss them in the context of the program designed to replace the SIPP, the Dynamics of Economic Well-being System (DEWS). The current plans and goals for the DEWS will be also described and discussed.
