Neighborhood Survey Project, Texas, 2014 (ICPSR 38247)
Modeled on the Community Survey of the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods, the project collected survey data from random samples of individuals from a random sample of "neighborhood clusters" in El Paso County, Texas. Neighborhood clusters consist of geographically contiguous and socially similar census tracts and for El Paso were determined by a combination of the local knowledge possessed by the project's researchers, preliminary analyses of the most recent census data regarding the distributions of immigrant status, language use, year of entry, and aspects of economic disadvantage as well as obvious boundaries (such as Interstates, major roads, mountains, and military installations).
The project used a sampling frame of neighborhood clusters in El Paso County stratified by measures of immigrant concentration (e.g., generational status, length of time since immigration) and socio-economic status. The project then employed Cole Lists, a company that provides consumer information for direct marketers, to obtain a list of all residential addresses in El Paso County by census tract. From each sampled neighborhood cluster, 30 residences were selected using a systematic random sampling procedure (a random start determined from a table of random numbers and then selecting every kth address. Each selected residence was mailed a notification letter, printed in English and in Spanish, regarding participation in the project and which specified that a trained interviewer will personally visit to determine which adult resident(s), if any, are willing to participate. For residences that agreed to participate, the adult resident who had the most recent birthday was selected for actual participation. These respondents received an incentive of $20. In face-to-face interviews, trained interviewers recorded each respondent's answers on a paper form and later manually entered this information into a computer file using spreadsheet software.
Conversational Transcripts of Truthful and Deceptive Speech Involving Controversial Topics, Central California, 2012 (ICPSR 37124)
This study investigated the presence of dynamic patterns of interpersonal coordination in extended deceptive conversations across multi-modal channels of behavior. Using a "devil's advocate" paradigm, the researchers experimentally elicited deception and truth across controversial social and political topics in which conversational partners either agreed or disagreed, and where one partner was surreptitiously asked to argue an opinion opposite of what he or she really believed. The researchers focused on interpersonal coordination as an emergent behavioral signal that captured inter-dependencies between conversational partners, both as the coupling of head movements over the span of milliseconds, measured via a windowed lagged cross correlation (WLCC) technique, and more global temporal dependencies across speech rate, using cross recurrence quantification analysis (CRQA). Another focus that was considered was how interpersonal coordination might be shaped by strategic, adaptive conversational goals associated with deception.
This collection includes both qualitative transcripts and a quantitative dataset including respondent demographics (including sex, age, and ethnicity). The qualitative dataset consists of 94 written transcripts of audio-recorded conversations, lasting eight minutes each in length. The quantitative dataset includes 5 variables for 102 cases.
Johns Hopkins University Prevention Research Center - Risks for Transitions in Drug Use Among Urban Adults, Baltimore City, 2008-2011 (ICPSR 36622)
The Johns Hopkins University Prevention Research center - Risks for Transitions, Baltimore city, 2008-2011 study (JHU PRC Risks for Transition in Drug Use among Urban Adults) represents data collected for a 25 years follow-up from the original JHU PRC study. At the start of the data collection, a cohort of 2,311 youth were randomly assigned to two classroom-based universal preventive interventions implemented in 43 classrooms of 19 public schools located in 5 socio-demographically distinct areas in Eastern Baltimore. This collection includes data from 1,434 respondents from the original cohort collected in 2008-2012. The mean age of the respondents was 30-32 years old.
Psychopathology (major depressive episode, phobia and anxiety disorders) was assessed using modules from the Composite International Diagnostic Interview-University of Michigan Version, CIDI- UM (WHO, 1997). An antisocial symptom scale adapted from the National Epidemiologic Survey of Alcohol and Related Conditions (NESARC) was administered which consisted of 30 questions that assessed behaviors experienced since turning 18 years of age. The alcohol, tobacco and drug modules of the interview were modeled after NESARC Alcohol Use Disorder and Associated Disabilities Interview Schedule-IV. Types of information in these modules collected include age of onset, use in past year and prior past year, frequency and recency of use, and DSM-IV abuse and dependence criteria. Socioeconomic status indicators, variables on education, employment, marital status, parenthood, social supports, family history of mental health and drug problems, general health, treatment utilization, and life events are included in this dataset.
This dataset includes 3,140 variables.

This study of 767 adults in the Detroit metropolitan area provides information on their religious beliefs and practices, as well as their feelings about various forms of taxation such as sales tax, income tax, and property tax. The collection was a combination of two separate studies: THE VITALITY OF SUPERNATURAL EXPERIENCE by Guy Swanson, and A FISCAL RESEARCH PROGRAM by Harvey Brazer. Respondents were asked about their beliefs in the existence and characteristics of God, the amount of influence they felt that God had in their life, and how they thought God would feel about various situations. Also explored was the membership and level of activity in formal organizations for both the respondent and the respondent's spouse. The respondent was also asked to evaluate the performance of several institutions and professional groups such as colleges, their position on televisions in classrooms, the Federal Courts, doctors, and scientists. In addition, the respondent was asked to list the problems in the United States that were badly in need of resolution and to evaluate who was to blame for the problems and what could be done to solve them. Other items probed the respondent's opinions of educational television stations, the comparative quality of utility companies' services, government spending, and the most important things in life. Attitudes toward the use of taxes or use fees to pay for parks and garbage collection were also elicited. Demographic variables specify age, sex, race, education, place of birth, marital status, occupation, length of residence in the Detroit area, home ownership, length of time at present residence, number of children, original nationality of husband's and wife's family, political affiliation, and amount and sources of income.
