The data file atuswgts_2025.dat (2025 Replicate weights file) contains 161 variables and 6,146 records.  
The variables on the 2025 atuswgts.dat file are:  TUCASEID, and TUFWGT001...TUFWGT160.  TUCASEID is defined in the ATUS Interview Data Dictionary, 
available at:  https://www.bls.gov/tus/dictionaries/atusintcodebk25.pdf.  TUFWGT001...TUFWGT160 are replicate weights.  

In addition to the data file, three computer programs are contained in atuswgts-2025.zip. If you have SPSS, SAS, 
or Stata software, you may use these programs to read the data into your statistical software package.  

The file "atuswgts_2025.sps" reads the data into SPSS; some variable names exceed length 8.

The file "atuswgts_2025.sas" reads the data into SAS.

The file "atuswgts_2025.do" reads the data into Stata.

If you have SAS, SPSS, or Stata software, open the corresponding program, edit the infile (in SAS), 
file (in SPSS) or import (in Stata) statement to reference the data file on your computer, and run the program.

The ATUS replicate weights are based on the replicate weights developed for the CPS. ATUS begins with the CPS 
replicate weight after the first-stage ratio adjustment.  Each replicate is processed through all of the stages of 
the ATUS weighting procedure.  The CPS replicate weights are based on a modified balanced half-sample method of 
replication, developed in the 1980s by Robert Fay.

Current Population Survey - Design and Methodology, available at: https://www2.census.gov/programs-surveys/cps/methodology/CPS-Tech-Paper-77.pdf.
