The purpose of the Research Archive on Disability in the U.S. (RADIUS) is to facilitate access to, and analysis of, outstanding data and documentation on the prevalence, correlates, and consequences of disability in the U.S. All archived studies have undergone substantial file processing and improvements by RADIUS staff, such as merging related data files and enhancing variable-level and study-level documentation to facilitate their use by social scientists, health researchers, policy-makers, educators, and students. Studies were selected with the help of a National Advisory Panel of experts using scientific criteria of technical quality, substantive utility, policy relevance, and potential for secondary data analysis.}, journal={TRAILS: Teaching Resources and Innovations Library for Sociology}, author={LANG, ERIC .}, year={2010}, month={Apr.} }
