Income Estimation for Former Household Members in the Redesigned SIPP
Income Estimation for Former Household Members in the Redesigned SIPP
NOTE: This poster was produced using test data from the 2010 SIPP Field Test, which underestimated the number of Type 2 persons. The undercount was corrected in the production version of the 2014 SIPP. An updated version of this analysis using the production data is available here: Short-term Household Members and Income Estimation in the SIPP.
Introduction
One of the challenges the Census Bureau faces in transitioning to annual interviews in the SIPP-EHC is the question of how to capture data on individuals who were part of the household at some point in the reference year, but who left the household prior to the interview. The data about these persons are important in order to understand the dynamics of household composition and income changes over the course of a calendar year, which is a central goal of the SIPP.
