Updating Occupational Prestige and Socioeconomic Scores: How the New Measures Measure up
Abstract
A quarter century replication of occupational prestige studies from the 1960s permitted the development of new occupational prestige and socioeconomic status scales keyed to the 1980 occupational classification system. This paper describes the design of the 1989 General Social Survey module on occupational prestige and evaluates the quality of its data. The new scale is shown to diverge from earlier scales in small but systematic ways. Substantive analyses based on respondents in the 1989 survey explore the practical implications of scale differences. (authors)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
