| Abstract | The National Educational Panel Study (NEPS) surveys a cohort sample of Kindergarten children (Starting Cohort 2, SC2) and follows them over their transition to elementary school and be-yond. The data are released via corresponding Scientific Use Files (SUF). For the actual version see DOI:10.5157/NEPS:SC2:3.0.0. This paper gives details on the applied indirect sampling procedure, the derivation of design weights, their successive adjustments, and the derivation of panel weights. S Sampling of Kindergartens was based on an indirect approach as a sampling frame for direct sampling was accessible neither for Kindergarten children nor for Kindergarten institutions. Starting with a sample of elementary schools, we received a list of Kindergartens that were supplying these elementary schools with first-grade students in school year 2009/2010. Kindergartens were then sampled from the listings provided by the elementary schools. Within the sampled Kindergartens all children together with their parents were asked for participation in the panel study. After correcting for institutional and individual unit nonresponse, each panel cohort member is assigned an adjusted design weight. Relying on these, for the first two panel waves cross-sectional and longitudinal weights are computed. Furthermore, weights are given for subgroups of the panel cohorts that are of special interest in our analysis. This concerns particularly the group of children continually taking part in the successive waves of the survey and the group of children and parents participating jointly. In 2012, the cohort of Kindergarten children transitioned to elementary school. Children who transitioned to previously sampled schools were followed up within their institutional context together with their classmates who augment the cohort sample. Besides that, there are previously sampled schools no children transitioned to. Students within these schools also augment the cohort sample. Children who transitioned to other schools were tracked individually. By design, these children do not take part in the tests until Wave 6, when most of the children will be in Grade 4. Here, the entire sample will be surveyed and tested again. Analysis via probit regressions highlight factors influencing the participation probability such as place of residence, native language, and special educational needs. (Orig.). |
