(INTERVIEWER READ TO R:)


The U.S. Department of Labor asks you to participate in the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997, Round 19.

This study is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. Your participation is vital to the success of this study. This study is voluntary, and you may decline to answer specific questions. You also may end the interview at any point. Personal identifiers such as name, address, and social security number will be held in confidence and will not be released to the public without your consent. All personnel associated with this study have signed a legal document in which they pledge to protect the confidentiality of the information that survey participants provide.

As you may remember from previous rounds of the survey, the questionnaire covers such topics as schooling, job training, marriage, substance use, reproductive behavior, illegal activity, employment, income, and assets. The information will help researchers and policy makers understand what helps adults be successful and what obstacles are most difficult for people to overcome.

INTERVIEWER: ATTEMPT TO GAIN R'S CONSENT TO PROCEED WITH THE INTERVIEW. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO GAIN CONSENT, BREAK OFF THE INTERVIEW AT THIS POINT AND MAKE A RECORD OF ALL INFORMATION THAT COULD BE USEFUL IN GAINING THE RESPONDENT'S COOPERATION AT A LATER DATE.

My computer is equipped to record this interview for quality control, research, testing, and training purposes. As always your confidentiality is protected by Federal law and the policies of the Bureau of Labor Statistics and NORC. May I continue with the recording?

INTERVIEWER: DID R AGREE TO BE RECORDED?

We appreciate your help in answering these questions. As part of this survey I will ask you some questions that may help us contact you in the future. By sharing this contact information, you give your permission for us to use it to try to contact you for future interviews. In attempting to reach you, we will never reveal any of the answers you've provided to the survey questions.

If the contacts you have provided offer the names of other people who may help us reach you, may we contact those people as well?

If you are or were to become a member of the Armed Forces, or if you were to enter a correctional facility or a residential care facility, may we contact government or other administrative officials to get their help in locating and interviewing you? When attempting to locate and interview you, we may reveal the fact that you are a participant in this survey. However, as stated earlier, we will never reveal any of the answers you've provided to the survey questions.
