Secondary Analysis of the National Survey of Parents and Youth (NSPY)
Workshop
April 16, 2010
The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) is sponsoring a summer
workshop that focuses on the National Survey of Parents and Youth
(NSPY). The NSPY dataset is the result of the evaluation of the
National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign surveying both parents and
youth living in the same household of the impact the Campaign had on
attitudes, beliefs, intentions and behaviors over time. The NSPY
restricted use datasets are unique in that they contain linked
longitudinal data from youth and their parents living in the same
household across all four rounds of the evaluation. Additionally the
restricted use files contain responses from youth and parents to
questions about Media Campaign advertisements played during the
interviews. The course is designed for faculty and research
professionals as well as for advanced graduate students in the social
sciences who are comfortable with data analysis software and
quantitative research. The National Addiction and HIV Data Archive
Program at the University of Michigan will facilitate the workshop.
Admitted applicants will receive a $1000 stipend to cover travel and
housing costs. For Application information please visit:
