DESCRIPTION:This hands-on workshop introduces the IPUMS (Integrated Public Use Microdata Series) data collections, which provide integrated census and survey data from around the world. After a brief overview of all IPUMS collections, we'll dive into IPUMS USA to learn the data workflow. \nWhat you will learn:\n Data Extraction: How to select and extract data in both standard CSV and the specialized DAT file/DDI (Data Documentation Initiative) metadata format, and how to decompress the extracts.\nData Import to R: How to read the data into R using both standard functions and the specialized ipumsr package.\nR Coding for processing: Essential R coding basics for preparing and analyzing harmonized census and survey datasets. \nR is an open-source programming language for statistical computing and visualization, and the skills you gain will apply to any other datasets, especially in IPUMS.\n\nWho Should Attend: Anyone interested in U.S. census and survey data, historical data, or cross-national comparisons. No prior knowledge of the R language is required.\n\n\nSoftware Required: Please download/install R and RStudio on your laptop before attending the workshop. \n\n\nRegistration:\nThis event is HYBRID. Register here, or at https://go.hawaii.edu/mXJ. Please contact Hejin Shin, hejins@hawaii.edu, with questions about the event. \n
