The data and documentation files for the 2008 TEDS-A are now available for download and online analysis. Some of the changes new to this year include:
- Children aged 11 and younger are no longer included in the dataset.
- The variable, RACE, is no longer recoded. The individual categories for Asians and Pacific Islanders are no longer combined into an Asian and Pacific Islander category.
- The question text, variable labels, and value labels have been revised to more closely reflect the wording from the TEDS Admissions Manual.
The 2008 TEDS-A report will be available from the Office of Applied Studies. It is estimated to be released at the end of March or early part of April 2010.
