Americans' Use of Time, 1965-1966

These data were gathered as part of a multinational time budget project (see also TIME USE IN ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL ACCOUNTS, 1975-1976 [ICPSR 7580] and AMERICANS' USE OF TIME, 1965-1966, AND TIME USE IN ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL ACCOUNTS, 1975-1976: MERGED DATA [ICPSR 7796]). This study includes variables of two general types. One group concerns sociodemographic characteristics of respondents and households, the other set deals with time use. The time use data were obtained by having respondents keep a complete diary of their activities for a single 24-hour period between November 15 and December 15, 1965, or between March 7 and April 29, 1966. Additional data were gathered from an interview taken on the day after the diary was completed. Data on both primary and secondary time use were recorded, along with where and with whom the activities took place.

本数据集系多国时间预算项目的一部分所收集（亦可参见《经济与社会账户中的时间使用：1975-1976年 [ICPSR 7580]》以及《1965-1966年美国人的时间使用及经济与社会账户中的时间使用：1975-1976年合并数据 [ICPSR 7796]》）。该研究包含两类变量：一类涉及受访者和家庭的社经人口特征，另一类则关注时间使用情况。时间使用数据通过要求受访者在1965年11月15日至12月15日或1966年3月7日至4月29日期间，对单日24小时内的所有活动进行详尽的日记记录而获得。在日记完成后的次日，还收集了额外的访谈数据。记录了主要和次要时间使用数据，以及活动发生的地点和参与者。
