The Pew Research Center's Social and Demographic Trends is pleased to provide raw data to scholars for their own research. Survey data are released twelve months after the reports are issued.
The Center's staff is available to answer questions and to provide limited assistance in importing and analyzing the data, but we strongly recommend that only experienced analysts who are familiar with large SPSS data files attempt to download these datasets.
Datasets are identified by survey topics, dates that the survey was conducted, and reports generated from the survey. To learn more about the survey and the sample used for each dataset, consult the individual reports.
Data are stored as SPSS.sav files. When applicable, additional files are included that provide the response values and labels for open-ended questions. A complete questionnaire and a readme file area are also included.
All data files include a weight variable that should be used in analysis and is identified in the layout or readme file. The dataset, layout and questionnaire files are all included in a single compressed archive file (.zip file) that may be downloaded and saved on your computer. Software for decompressing archive files is available at download.com and on many freeware/shareware sites on the web.
All manuscripts, articles, books, and other papers and publications using Center data should reference Pew Research Center Social & Demographic Trends as the source of the data, and should acknowledge that the Center bears no responsibility for the interpretations presented or conclusions reached based on analysis of the data.
Questions concerning the datasets may be directed to the Pew Research Center at info@pewsocialtrends.org.
