Abstract: This supplement is the source of data on work experience, personal and family income, poverty levels, population status, health insurance coverage, family relationships, marital status, and migration. These measurements will be analyzed with respect to each other as well as with demographic variables such as education, age, and sex. This request is to add four questions to the ASEC. The added questions will assist researchers to evaluate the impact of governmental assistance programs on economic well-being, particularly for the Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM).
