Summary View help for Summary
The IPUMS Contextual Determinants of Health (CDOH) data series includes measures of disparities, policies, and counts by state or county for historically marginalized populations in the United States including Black, Asian, Hispanic/Latina/o/e/x, and LGBTQ+ persons as well as women.
The IPUMS CDOH data are made available through ICPSR/DSDR for merging with the National Couples' Health and Time Study (NCHAT), United States, 2020-2021 (ICPSR 38417) by approved restricted data researchers. All other researchers can access the IPUMS CDOH data via the IPUMS CDOH website.
Unlike other IPUMS products, the CDOH data are organized into multiple categories related to Race and Ethnicity, Sexual and Gender Minority, Gender, and Politics. The CDOH measures were created from a wide variety of data sources (e.g., IPUMS NHGIS, the Census Bureau, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Movement Advancement Project, and Myers Abortion Facility Database). Measures are currently available for states or counties from approximately 2015 to 2020.
The Gender measures in this release include the state-level earnings ratio, which compares the median earnings of full-time wage and salary workers identifying as male to the median earnings of full-time wage and salary workers identifying as female in a given state in a given year. To work with the IPUMS CDOH data, researchers will need to first merge the NCHAT data to DS1 (MATCH ID and State FIPS Data). This merged file can then be linked to the IPUMS CDOH datafile (DS2) using the STATEFIPS variable.

-
DS1 is the exact same file as the other "MATCH ID and State FIPS Data" files from the other studies within this IPUMS Contextual Determinants of Health (CDOH) series.
-
For DS2, the data is limited to the 50 United States and the District of Columbia. There is no data for other U.S. territories.
Study Purpose View help for Study Purpose
The purpose of this study is to provide researchers the ability to merge the NCHAT (National Couples' Health and Time Study) data with the Contextual Determinants of Health (CDOH).
Study Design View help for Study Design
- DS1 "MATCH ID and State FIPS Data" provides a MATCH_ID variable and STATEFIPS variable to allow users to merge the IPUMS Contextual Determinants of Health (CDOH) data with the NCHAT (National Couples' Health and Time Study).
- DS2 "Sexism State Earnings Ratio Data" compares the median earnings of full-time wage and salary workers identifying as male to the median earnings of full-time wage and salary workers identifying as female in a given state in a given year. Please refer to page 2 of the User Guide for the formula used to create this ratio. Once the NCHAT data is merged with the IPUMS CDOH data using DS1, it can then be merged with DS2 via the STATEFIPS variable.
