| Summary: | The Trends in Occupational Sex and Race Composition studies collected demographic information on occupational characteristics aggregated from census micro data for 1970, 1980, and 1990. The basic sample selection was for those persons 16 years of age and older who worked in the previous year (1969, 1979, or 1989), and who also worked in the civilian labor force during the reference week. Data provided for each year under observation were subdivided into four demographic sections: one section each providing information for the total labor force, the male labor force, the female labor force and a section titled the Race-Sex Specific labor force. For the 499 respondents, demographic information includes age, level of education completed, number of hours worked per week, industry of occupation, earnings and wages, and gender and race.
