Survey of Consumer Finances, 1983-1989 Panel

<p>The 1983 SCF was the first comprehensive wealth survey since the 1963 Survey of Financial Characteristics of Consumers and the 1964 reinterview. In 1986 a very brief reinterview was conducted with the 1983 SCF respondents. The 1989 SCF has a complex sample design which provides both cross-section representation as well as information on a subset of the 1983 respondents. The data include all cases that were interviewed in 1989 that have either cross-section and panel representation or only panel representation. Note: this data set is not intended to reproduce the cross-section results form the 1983 or 1989 SCF.</p>

1983年消费者财务调查（Survey of Consumer Finances，SCF）是继1963年消费者金融特征调查（Survey of Financial Characteristics of Consumers）与1964年回访调查之后，首次开展的综合性财富调查。1986年，研究人员针对1983年SCF的受访对象开展了一次极简回访。1989年SCF采用复杂抽样设计，既能够实现横截面样本的代表性覆盖，也可获取1983年受访对象中部分群体的相关信息。本次数据集涵盖1989年所有受访样本，这些样本要么同时具备横截面与面板代表性，要么仅具备面板代表性。请注意：本数据集并非用于复刻1983年或1989年SCF的横截面分析结果。
