The 1993 release of the General Social Survey (GSS) has been added to
the Institute for Research in Social Science's Public Opinion Item
Index.  The 1993 GSS includes both the 1992 supplement and the
new 1993 data.

The 1992 supplement augmented the 1972-1991 data with
new and updated variables, including new household structure
items; 1991 ISSP variables on religion; International Standard
Classification of Occupation Codes - 1968 (ISCO-68); 1980 US Census
Classification of Occupations and Industries codes; Socioeconomic
Index (SEI) of Occupations codes; measures of poverty status;
family and respondent income in constants dollars; and date
of interview.

The 1993 additions include: a topical module on culture; an ISSP
module on the environment; and National Academy of Sciences' Panel
on Poverty and Family Assistance questions.

The Public Opinion Item Index allows searching of the GSS along with
other public opinion surveys, including USA Today, Louis Harris surveys,
Southern Focus Polls, National Network of State Polls, and others.
The Index can be accessed either through the Internet or by modem.
