VRscores Occupations Parquet 2012-2024

Occupation-year panel dataset derived from the VRscores 2024 release. Each record corresponds to an O*NET SOC occupation and calendar year from 2012–2024 with at least five matched workers across any year. Variables include the occupation code and title, worker counts, raw and imputed L2 voter registration counts by party, average match quality, raw and imputed partisan shares, two-party and overall margins, partisan diversity indices, effective number of parties, and a processing timestamp. The dataset contains 4,979 occupation-year rows covering 383 occupations per year. It is built from a matching of employment records from Revelio Labs (April 2025) with voter registration data from the L2 voter file (November 2024) using ensemble linkage techniques. Small occupations (<5 matched workers) are excluded, one-to-one matches are enforced, and the VRscores methodology and working paper document the data processing and definitions.

本数据集为基于VRscores 2024发布版构建的职业-年度面板数据集（panel dataset）。每条记录对应2012至2024年间的某一O*NET SOC职业（O*NET SOC occupation）及对应日历年度，且该年度内该职业至少匹配到5名工人。数据集包含的变量包括：职业代码与名称、工人总数、按党派划分的原始及插补L2选民登记人数、平均匹配质量、原始及插补的党派占比、两党及整体优势幅度、党派多样性指数、有效政党数，以及处理时间戳。本数据集共包含4979条职业-年度记录，每年覆盖383个职业。本数据集通过集成匹配技术（ensemble linkage techniques），将Revelio Labs（2025年4月）的就业记录与L2选民档案（L2 voter file，2024年11月）的选民登记数据匹配构建而成。本数据集排除了匹配工人少于5人的小型职业，并强制采用一对一匹配规则；VRscores的方法学文档与工作论文对数据处理流程及术语定义进行了详细说明。若使用本数据集，请引用以下文献：Kagan, Max; Frake, Justin; Hurst, Reuben (2025).《VRscores：基于选民登记的劳动力政治新测度与数据集》（SSRN 5104795），以及Frake, Justin; Hurst, Reuben; Kagan, Max (2025).《美国职场中的政治隔离》（SSRN 4639165 / DOI 10.2139/ssrn.4639165）。
