Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data [United States]: Arrests by Age, Sex, and Race, Summarized Yearly, 1990

These data provide information on the number of arrests reported to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program each year by police agencies in the United States. These arrest reports provide data on 43 offenses including violent crime, drug use, gambling, and larceny. The data received by ICPSR were structured as a hierarchical file containing, per reporting police agency: an agency header record, and 1 to 43 detail offense records containing the counts of arrests by age, sex, and race for a particular offense. ICPSR restructured the original data to logical record length format with the agency header record variables copied onto the detail records. Consequently, each record contains arrest counts for a particular agency-offense.

本数据集收录美国各警务机构每年上报至联邦调查局（Federal Bureau of Investigation）统一犯罪报告（Uniform Crime Reporting, UCR）项目的逮捕人数相关信息。该类逮捕报告涵盖43类犯罪的统计数据，包括暴力犯罪、涉毒行为、赌博及盗窃罪。大学间政治与社会研究联盟（Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research, ICPSR）获取的原始数据采用层级文件结构，每个上报警务机构对应如下内容：一条机构头记录，以及1至43条针对特定犯罪的详情记录，详情记录中包含对应犯罪按年龄、性别与种族划分的逮捕人数统计。ICPSR将原始数据重构为逻辑记录长度格式，并将机构头记录中的变量复制至详情记录内。因此，每条记录均对应某一警务机构的某一类犯罪的逮捕人数统计。
