Four-day workshop covers long-running survey
We're happy to welcome this sponsored workshop back to the ICPSR Summer
Program. Accepted applicants will pay NO registration fees for this course!

*Exploring and Analyzing Monitoring the Future Data: A Primer*
*Dates:* August 9-12, 2021
*Instructors: *Deborah D. Kloska, University of Michigan; Devi Putcha,
University of Michigan
*Application Deadline:* June 25

The Monitoring the Future <http://monitoringthefuture.org/> (MTF) project
is a long-term epidemiologic and etiologic study of substance use among the
nation’s youth and adults. Funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse
since 1975, the MTF project has collected data annually from nationally
representative samples of high school seniors. Beginning in 1991, similar
surveys of nationally representative samples of 8th and 10th graders have
been collected as well. In all, approximately 50,000 students annually
respond to about 100 drug use and demographic questions, as well as to
about 200 questions on subjects such as attitudes toward government, social
institutions, race relations, changing gender roles, educational
aspirations, occupational aims, and marital plans.

The virtual four-day workshop will introduce participants to the MTF
cross-sectional data (public-use and restricted-use) and the restricted-use
longitudinal panel data available from the ICPSR/NAHDAP archives.  The
workshop will cover the content of MTF public release and restricted-use
data, study documentation, data management and analysis planning, and, as
time and interest allow, a variety of analytic techniques appropriate for
data derived from a complex sample design.  The workshop format will be a
combination of live lecture via Zoom, discussion and demonstrations
followed by lab sessions for participants to work with a subset of the MTF
restricted-use data.
