An Analysis of the SIPP Asset and Liability Feedback Experiment
An Analysis of the SIPP Asset and Liability Feedback Experiment
Working Paper Number: SEHSD-WP1987-19 or SIPP-WP-47
The Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) collects data on assets and liabilities because of their importance in determining program eligibility and in assessing the economic situation of families. Questions concerning the ownership and amounts of assets and liabilities were included in the supplement to the fourth interview of the 1984 panel (collected in September through December 1984). These were updated one year later in wave 7. The current SIPP design collects wealth data on a yearly basis.
