Abstract	This report describes the methods and procedures used for the 1999 National Study of Postsecondary Faculty (NSOPF:99). As did the first 2 cycles of this survey, NSOPF:99 serves the continuing need for data on faculty and other instructional personnel. NSOPF:99 used a sample of 960 institutions and 28,576 full- and part-time faculty employed at these institutions. The sample was designed to allow detailed comparisons and high levels of precision at both the institution and faculty levels. The sampled institutions represent all public and private not-for-profit Title IV-participating, degree-granting institutions in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Both the sample of institutions and that of faculty were stratified, systematic samples. In addition to the institution and faculty samples, a third sample of 19,123 faculty members was selected from the initial sample for intensive follow-up. NSOPF:99 involved a multistage effort to collect data from the sampled faculty, with faculty sampled in 7 waves. This report also discusses issues of quality control, item nonresponse, and discrepancies in faculty counts. Eleven appendixes contain supplemental information and instruments used in the surveys. (Contains 57 tables and 11 figures.) (SLD)
