The Add Health project recently announced the availability of the public use version of the Wave III Add Health Education Data (constructed by the Adolescent Health and Academic Achievement Study (AHAA)) from Sociometrics. Penn State users may download these data (and all three waves of the public use Add Health data) from the Sociometrics Social Science Electronic Data Library (SSEDL). You need to authenticate in to the SSEDL via the University Libraries Electronic Resources A-Z list. All of the Add Health data is located in the Data Archive on Adolescent Pregnancy and Pregnancy Prevention (DAPPP). You will need to agree to adhere to the public use data agreement associated with these files. You will “sign” your agreement by providing your name and contact information.

The PRI Data Archive does have this particular Add Health dataset and other public use Add Health data files on PopNet UNIX. If you would like to use PRI’s holdings (you must already have a PopNet UNIX account) contact the Data Archivist.
