Quality and other technical information related to this item:

1993
Since this question only lists the response categories in which NSF was interested, there was heavy use of the "other-specify" response category (88 percent for the NSCG; 37 percent for the SDR; 35 percent for the NSRCG ). Item nonresponse for D14 was 2.7 percent for the NSCG and less than 1.0 for the SDR and NSRCG. Item nonresponse was low for the SDR and NSRCG, at less than one percent and two percent, respectively, but higher initially for the unedited NSCG mail data.
