Contextual Heterosexism Database: Phase 1

This contextual database, Contextual Heterosexism Database - Phase 1 (CHD1), further expands the collection of contextual data available to users of The National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) through the provision of state, county, and tract level measures from the Decennial Census of Population and Housing, American Community Survey (ACS), the Movement Advancement Project (MAP), Lax and Phillips (2009), Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI), Cooperative Election Study (CES), U.S. Religion Census, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Election Lab. These data include indicators of social policies, social climate, and confounding factors related to the study/measurement of structural heterosexism that correspond to Waves 3, 4, and 5. Some of these indicators are new to the Add Health contextual database and others were previously not available at all three of these waves.
