(1) While questionnaires for three separate samples -- 1,146 students, 3,594 adults, and 948 federal employees -- are included in this study's documentation, data are provided only for the student sample. (2) ICPSR has assigned column locations, variable names, and variable labels according to the available documentation. Value labels and missing value designations, while listed in the documentation, have not been assigned to the data due to concern that they don't match the full range of values present in the dataset.
