Supplementary Information

A total of 57,000 screening interviews for the supplemental sample were carried out among 900 sample segments in a 100-PSU sample specifically designed to produce statistically efficient samples of Hispanics or Latinos, blacks, and economically disadvantaged, nonblack/non-Hispanics. The NLS sample design, which selected every eligible person connected to the household, generated a representative sample of siblings and spouses living in the same household and satisfying the age restrictions stated above. However, NLSY79 samples do not contain nationally representative samples of siblings and spouses of all ages and living arrangements.
