    Description: The National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 
represents the 20th wave of data collection. The information obtained 
in this survey will be used by the Department of Labor (DOL), other 
government agencies, academic researchers, the news media, and the 
general public to understand the employment experiences and life-cycle 
transitions of men and women born in the years 1957 to 1964 and living 
in the United States when the survey began in 1979. Among the 
objectives of the DOL are to promote the development of the U.S. labor
