Title of Research: 2012-14 Beginning Postsecondary Students Longitudinal Study

Introduction

You are being asked to participate in a cognitive interview which is part of a larger research study sponsored by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) of the U.S. Department of Education. The study seeks to better understand the experiences and choices of individuals who entered college at the same time, whether or not they are still enrolled in college. Before you decide if you want to take part in this study, you need to read this Informed Consent form so that you understand what the interview is about and what you will be asked to do. This form also tells you who can participate in the interviews, the risks and benefits of participating, how we will protect your information, and who you can call if you have questions. Please ask the researcher to explain anything you don’t understand before you make your decision.

Purpose

The interview is being conducted by RTI International, a research organization located in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.

Participation will involve answering questions and reviewing a survey for an upcoming study that will be used to better understand the experiences and choices of individuals who entered college at the same time, whether or not they are still enrolled in college. During the interview, we will ask you to complete a web or telephone survey and give us your thoughts on the questions you are being asked. In addition, we will ask you questions as you go in order to measure your understanding and interpretation of the questions in the survey. The information from the interviews will help us finalize development of the questions for a large study that will be conducted early next year.

Procedures

You are one of approximately 30 individuals participating in these cognitive interviews.

The interview will be audio recorded to make sure we don’t miss anything that you say and to help us write a report summarizing the results of the interviews. Upon completion of the written report, the recording will be destroyed. Your name will never be used in the report that we write.

Study Duration

Your participation in the cognitive interview will take about 90 minutes.

Possible Risks or Discomforts

We do not anticipate that any of the discussion topics will make you uncomfortable or upset. However you may refuse to answer any question or take a break at any time.

Benefits

Your Benefits There are no direct benefits to you from participating in this study.

Benefits for Other People We hope that these interviews will help us develop and improve questions for a national survey so that we can better understand the experiences and choices of individuals who entered college at the same time, whether or not they are still enrolled in college.

Payment for Participation You will be paid $40 upon completion of the interview.

Help Text

A high school diploma is awarded to students after successful completion of the required courses at a high school. This category also includes Adult High School Diplomas.

The GED (General Educational Development) certificate or other equivalent credential allows those who did not finish high school to earn the equivalent of a high school diploma by completing classes and passing required exams.

A high school completion certificate indicates that you attended high school for the minimum number of days required for completion but did not complete all graduation requirements (for example, did not pass the number of courses required for a diploma).

If you completed high school in a country other than the United States, indicate attended a foreign high school.

If you did not attend a traditional public or private high school but instead were taught at home by a parent or some other individual, indicate home schooled.

If you have not yet completed high school, indicate Did not complete high school or a high school equivalency program.

Degrees:

An associate's degree normally requires at least 2, but less than 4 years, of full-time equivalent college work.

A bachelor's degree is usually awarded by a 4-year college or university and usually requires at least 4 years of full-time, college-level work.

A master's degree usually requires at least 2 years of full-time graduate-level work and may require a thesis or a practicum.

A doctoral degree-research/scholarship is a Ph.D. or other doctor's degree that requires advanced work beyond the master's level, including the preparation and defense of a dissertation based on original research, or the planning and execution of an original project demonstrating substantial artistic or scholarly achievement. Some examples of this type of degree may include Ed.D., D.M.A., D.B.A., D.Sc., D.A., or D.M., and others, as designated by the awarding institution.

A doctoral degree-professional practice is a doctor's degree that is conferred upon completion of a program providing the knowledge and skills for the recognition, credential, or license required for professional practice. The degree is awarded after a period of study such that the total time to the degree, including both pre-professional and professional preparation, equals at least six full-time equivalent academic years. Some of these degrees include: chiropractic (D.C., or D.C.M.); dentistry (D.D.S. or D.M.D.); law (L.L.B. or J.D.); medicine (M.D.); optometry (O.D.), osteopathic medicine (D.O.); pharmacy (Pharm.D.); podiatry (D.P.M., Pod.D., D.P.); or veterinary medicine (D.V.M.), and others, as designated by the awarding institution.

A doctoral degree-other is a doctor's degree that does not meet the definition of a doctor's degree-research/scholarship or a doctor's degree-professional practice.

Certificates and Diplomas:

Undergraduate certificates or diplomas usually take less than two years to complete and are usually designed to equip people with the skills needed for direct entry to employment or to earn a license such as a cosmetology license. Other examples include certificates in administrative support, computer programming, and medical records.

A post-baccalaureate certificate provides students who already hold a bachelor's degree with new or additional training in an area of specialization. Certificates typically require fewer course hours than do master's or doctoral degrees, and do not require a thesis or dissertation. Examples of this include certificates in accounting, computer science, and human resource management.

A post-master's certificate usually requires completion of 24 semester credit hours beyond the master's degree but does not meet the requirements of academic degrees at the doctoral level.

Not enrolled for a degree or certificate:

Undergraduate level classes means taking courses at the undergraduate level but not formally enrolling in a degree or certificate program of any sort.

Graduate level classes are for students who already hold an undergraduate degree or certificate and who are enrolled in graduate-level courses beyond a bachelor's degree, but who are not formally enrolled in a graduate degree program.

Other examples include certificates in administrative support, computer programming, and medical records.

An associate's degree normally requires at least 2, but less than 4 years, of full-time equivalent college work.

A bachelor's degree is usually awarded by a 4-year college or university and usually requires at least 4 years of full-time, college-level work.

A master's degree usually requires at least 2 years of full-time graduate-level work and may require a thesis or a practicum.

A post-master's certificate usually requires completion of 24 semester credit hours beyond the master's degree but does not meet the requirements of academic degrees at the doctoral level.

Help Text

Indicate if this enrollment at [NPSAS] is/was for a degree or certificate program or for classes only.

Degree or certificate programs include:

Undergraduate certificates or diplomas usually take less than two years to complete and are usually designed to equip people with the skills needed for direct entry to employment or to earn a license such as a cosmetology license. Other examples include certificates in administrative support, computer programming, and medical records.

An associate's degree normally requires at least 2, but less than 4 years, of full-time equivalent college work.

A bachelor's degree is usually awarded by a 4-year college or university and usually requires at least 4 years of full-time, college-level work.

A post-baccalaureate certificate provides students who already hold a bachelor's degree with new or additional training in an area of specialization. Certificates typically require fewer course hours than do master's or doctoral degrees, and do not require a thesis or dissertation. Examples of this include certificates in accounting, computer science, and human resource management.

A master's degree usually requires at least 2 years of full-time graduate-level work and may require a thesis or a practicum.

A post-master's certificate usually requires completion of 24 semester credit hours beyond the master's degree but does not meet the requirements of academic degrees at the doctoral level.

A doctoral degree-research/scholarship is a Ph.D. or other doctor's degree that requires advanced work beyond the master's level, including the preparation and defense of a dissertation based on original research, or the planning and execution of an original project demonstrating substantial artistic or scholarly achievement. Some examples of this type of degree may include Ed.D., D.M.A., D.B.A., D.Sc., D.A., or D.M., and others, as designated by the awarding institution.

A doctoral degree-professional practice is a doctor's degree that is conferred upon completion of a program providing the knowledge and skills for the recognition, credential, or license required for professional practice. The degree is awarded after a period of study such that the total time to the degree, including both pre-professional and professional preparation, equals at least six full-time equivalent academic years. Some of these degrees include: chiropractic (D.C., or D.C.M.); dentistry (D.D.S. or D.M.D.); law (L.L.B. or J.D.); medicine (M.D.); optometry (O.D.), osteopathic medicine (D.O.); pharmacy (Pharm.D.); podiatry (D.P.M., Pod.D., D.P.); or veterinary medicine (D.V.M.), and others, as designated by the awarding institution.

A doctoral degree-other is a doctor's degree that does not meet the definition of a doctor's degree-research/scholarship or a doctor's degree-professional practice.

Classes only means:

Mostly undergraduate-level classes means taking mostly taking courses at the undergraduate level but not formally enrolling in a degree or certificate program of any sort.

Mostly graduate-level classes are for students who already hold an undergraduate degree or certificate and who are mostly enrolled in graduate-level courses beyond a bachelor's degree, but who are not formally enrolled in a graduate degree program.

Degree or certificate programs include:

An associate's degree normally requires at least 2, but less than 4 years, of full-time equivalent college work.

A bachelor's degree is usually awarded by a 4-year college or university and usually requires at least 4 years of full-time, college-level work.

A master's degree usually requires at least 2 years of full-time graduate-level work and may require a thesis or a practicum.

A post-master's certificate usually requires completion of 24 semester credit hours beyond the master's degree but does not meet the requirements of academic degrees at the doctoral level.

A doctoral degree-other is a doctor's degree that does not meet the definition of a doctor's degree-research/scholarship or a doctor's degree-professional practice.

Classes only mean:

Mostly undergraduate-level classes means taking courses mostly at the undergraduate level but not formally enrolling in a degree or certificate program of any sort.

If you plan to attend any college, university or trade school in the 2013-2014 academic year (July 1, 2013-June 30, 2014) for a degree or certificate program, answer Yes.

Answer Yes whether you are continuing with your current degree or certificate program or classes, or whether you are starting a new degree or certificate program.

A trade school offers instruction in skilled trades.

Degree or certificate programs include:

Undergraduate certificates or diplomas usually take less than two years to complete and are usually designed to equip people with the skills needed for direct entry to or to earn a license such as a cosmetology license. Other examples include certificates in administrative support, computer programming, and medical records.

An associate's degree normally requires at least 2, but less than 4 years, of full-time equivalent college work.

A bachelor's degree is usually awarded by a 4-year college or university and usually requires at least 4 years of full-time, college-level work.

A master's degree usually requires at least 2 years of full-time graduate-level work and may require a thesis or a practicum.

A post-master's certificate usually requires completion of 24 semester credit hours beyond the master's degree but does not meet the requirements of academic degrees at the doctoral level.

A doctoral degree-other is a doctor's degree that does not meet the definition of a doctor's degree-research/scholarship or a doctor's degree-professional practice.

If you will be in classes only in the 2013-2014 academic year, answer "No."

Classes only means:

Mostly undergraduate-level classes means taking mostly taking courses at the undergraduate level but not formally enrolling in a degree or certificate program of any sort.

Mostly graduate-level classes are for students who already hold an undergraduate degree or certificate and who are mostly enrolled in graduate-level courses beyond a bachelor's degree, but who are not formally enrolled in a graduate degree program.

Include benefits, grants, or scholarships you received for all schools you attended in 2012-2013. The below types of aid may come to you directly or may be given to the financial aid office at your school.

Grants and scholarships are types of money that you receive for school that do not have to be repaid.

Private loans, also known as alternative loans, are offered by private lenders. There are no federal application forms to complete.

If you are currently repaying any private student loans, even if you are still in your deferment period, please select Yes.

Deferred or delayed loan payments are put off until a later date. Deferment of private loans is on a loan-by-loan basis and often varies among lenders. In order to defer private loan payments, generally, the borrower must apply online on the lender's website, over the telephone, via fax or through postal mail. The application may also require supporting documentation, such as a copy of your paycheck stub, unemployment compensation statement, disability award letter or a certified letter from your school verifying your enrollment status.

A federal Stafford loan is an educational loan borrowed directly from the federal government (Direct Loans), with an interest rate and other terms that are set by the federal government. Students must file a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) in order to be considered for Stafford loan eligibility. Undergraduate and graduate level students are eligible to receive Stafford loans, which can be either subsidized or unsubsidized.

The Perkins Loan is awarded to undergraduate and graduate students with exceptional financial need. This is a campus-based loan program, with the school acting as the lender using a limited pool of funds provided by the federal government.

A federal Graduate and Professional PLUS loan is an educational loan borrowed directly from the federal government (Direct Loans), with an interest rate and other terms that are set by the federal government. Students must file a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid). Only graduate level students are eligible to receive Graduate and Professional PLUS loans, which are unsubsidized.

Benefits are a type of non-monetary employee compensation provided in addition to salary. Indicate "yes" for each benefit your employer offered to you, regardless of whether or not you used the benefit.

Health insurance pays all or part of the costs for your medical, dental, vision, or other health care. It may be either completely employer-paid, or offered at a reduced rate as an employee-paid benefit.

Life insurance provides a predetermined amount of money to the family member or other person you have identified to receive the support in case of death. It may be either completely employer-paid, or offered at a reduced rate as an employee-paid benefit.

Retirement benefits are funds that you, your employer, or both, can set aside to invest while you are working. In defined benefit plans (sometimes called pension plans), at the time of retirement, employees are provided a set amount based on salary or years of service. In defined contribution plans like a 401(k)/403(b), both employee and employer contribute specific amounts but the benefit available upon retirement is tied to investment earnings.

Answer Yes if you or anyone in your family household received any of the following benefits between July 1, 2012 and June 30, 2013:

The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program pays benefits to disabled adults and children who have limited income and resources. It is designed to help aged, blind, and disabled people who have little or no income and provides cash to meet basic needs for food, clothing, and shelter.

The federal Food Stamp Program was renamed Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Some state program names may vary. States typically issue SNAP benefits through electronic benefit transfer (EBT) cards that are used to purchase eligible food in authorized retail food stores, farmers' markets, etc. EBT cards work like debit cards.

TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families) payments provide financial assistance to families with limited resources. The assistance is time-limited (typically a maximum of 60 months).

Household size and family income are used to determine eligibility for free or reduced price school lunches in the Free and Reduced Price School Lunch program.

WIC (the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children) is an assistance program for low-income pregnant women or new mothers, infants, and children up to age 5 who are at nutritional risk. WIC provides nutrition education, supplemental foods, health screenings, and health care referrals.
