Structure and Description:

Column	Type	Column Content
O*NET-SOC Code	Character(10)	ONET-SOC Code (see Occupation Data)*
Element ID	Character Varying(20)	Content Model Outline Position (see Content Model Reference)
Element Name	Character Varying(150)	Content Model Element Name (see Content Model Reference)
Scale ID	Character Varying(3)	Scale ID (see Scales Reference)
Data Value	Float(5,2)	Rating associated with the O*NET-SOC occupation
N	Integer(4)	Sample size
Standard Error	Float(7,4)	Standard Error
Lower CI Bound	Float(7,4)	Lower 95% confidence interval bound
Upper CI Bound	Float(7,4)	Upper 95% confidence interval bound
Recommend Suppress	Character(1)	Low precision indicator (Y=yes, N=no)
Not Relevant	Character(1)	Not relevant for the occupation (Y=yes, N=no)
Date	Character(7)	Date when data was updated
Domain Source	Character Varying(30)	Source of the data

This file contains the Content Model Work Activity data associated with each O*NET-SOC occupation. It is displayed in 13 tab delimited fields and identified using the column names provided above. Item rating level metadata is provided in columns named N, Standard Error, Lower CI Bound, Upper CI Bound, Recommend Suppress, Not Relevant, Date, and Domain Source. Refer to Appendix 2, Item Rating Level Statistics - Incumbent for additional information on these items. The 13 fields are represented by one row. There are a total of 72,078 rows of data in this file.
