Note: an "X" in a cell indicates that the data
element is available for the designated survey component.
A blank cell indicates the data element is not available for that survey
component. For data elements that are only available for private use,
contact NSF about obtaining access to these restricted data.
Note that data from the 1993 National Survey of College Graduates is also
available on a separate CD-ROM. All the available data from this CD is included
in the on-line SESTAT 1993 NSCG public-use data file, but the CD does not follow
SESTAT variable naming conventions and does not include the detailed documentation
available for the on-line data.

Quality and other technical information related to this item:
General
For the SDR, this item was not obtained directly from the survey form,
but was instead obtained from the sampling frame. The Survey of Earned
Doctorates (SED), an ongoing census of all U.S. doctorate recipients since
1942, was used to construct the sampling frame, and thus some information,
routinely collected by the SED, such as field of study and year of degree
award, was known about each respondent even before the SDR survey
data was collected.
