    Area of Science:

    • Social Sciences
    • Public Health
    • Disability Studies

    Background:

    • In December 1993, 3.8 million individuals under 65 received disability-based Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
    • Over half of these SSI recipients had a mental disorder.
    • A sharp increase in disabled SSI recipients has been observed in recent years.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the changing disability patterns among Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients.
    • To investigate the increasing proportion of SSI recipients with mental disorders.
    • To explore potential causes for these shifts, including program-related factors.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipient data from December 1993.
    • Examination of trends in disability types among SSI recipients.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Comparison with trends in the Social Security Administration's Disability Insurance (DI) program.

    • Main Results:

    • The number of disabled SSI recipients has risen significantly.
    • Mental disorders, especially psychiatric illnesses, constitute a growing percentage of disabilities among SSI recipients.
    • Many recipients with mental disorders enroll in their youth and may have long-term program participation.

    Conclusions:

    • The increasing prevalence of mental disorders among disabled SSI recipients suggests a shift in disability patterns.
    • Programmatic factors within SSI and the Disability Insurance (DI) program, such as policy changes and outreach, may contribute to these trends.
    • These evolving patterns have significant implications for the future size and composition of SSI caseloads.
