American Time Use Survey — Multi-Year Microdata Files
The ATUS multi-year microdata files combine several years of previously-released and publicly-available ATUS microdata.
Because changes in time use occur relatively slowly over time, it is possible to combine multiple
years of ATUS data; doing so facilitates more detailed analyses about how Americans spend
their time.
About the Multi-Year ATUS Microdata Files
This page includes links to the multi-year ATUS microdata files and
supporting documentation. Each set of multi-year ATUS microdata files combines multiple years of ATUS data. For example,
the 2003-2016 ATUS Multi-year Microdata files combine microdata
from the 2003 to 2016 ATUS.
Researchers can use these multi-year ATUS microdata files to
produce their own time-use estimates or do other analyses.
These files do not contain time-use estimates. Time-use estimates for various activities and selected
demographic and labor force characteristics are available on the ATUS Web site under the headings News
Releases, ATUS Database, Charts and Tables.
