National Household Education Surveys Program, 2019
Add to My BasketDescription
The NHES:2019 data are contained in two public-use and two restricted-use data files, one for each topical survey that was fielded: the Early Childhood Program Participation (ECPP) survey and the Parent and Family Involvement in Education (PFI) survey, which were last fielded in 2016. The ECPP survey has a target population of children age 6 or younger who are not yet enrolled in kindergarten. The PFI survey has a target population of children and youth age 20 or younger who are enrolled in kindergarten through 12th grade in a public or private school or who are being homeschooled for the equivalent grades.
The NHES:2019 was a two-phase survey conducted primarily on the web, although a portion of the sample completed a paper-based version of the survey (see chapters 2 and 3 for details). The first phase of the survey was the administration of a short household screener questionnaire to identify households with children or youth under age 20. A total of 205,000 households were selected based on this screener, and the screener response rate was63.1 percent. The second phase of the survey was the collection of topical survey data from households with eligible children. The topical response rate was 85.5 percent for the ECPP survey and 83.4 percent for the PFI survey. The overall response rates (the product of the screener response rate and the topical response rate) were 54.0 percent for the ECPP survey and 52.6 percent for the PFI survey.
