   * The **Old NORC** was the one developed from 1960 census codes. Codebook used by Denise Daniels to score Old Norc, Old SEI, Hawaii NORC, New NORC and New SEI is found here: {{:catslife:documents:integrated_ses_titles.pdf| Job title index to six SES measures}}
   * The **Hawaii NORC** was an adaptation of this used for the Hawaii Family Study of Cognition
