Data from the National Supported Work Study. A benchmark matching dataset. Columns consist of an indicator for whether the observed unit was in the experimental subset; an indicator for whether the individual received the treatment; age in years; schooling in years; indicators for black and Hispanic; an indicator for marriage status, one of married; an indicator for no high school degree; and reported earnings in 1974, 1975, and 1978. 1974 and 1975 earnings are pre-treatment. 1978 earnings is taken as the outcome variable. Note: This data and description were originally prepared for the CBPS package.
