A newly obtained data sample of inclusive electron-nucleon scattering from both hydrogen and deuterium targets is analyzed. These JLab data are in the nucleon resonance region in the four-momentum transfer range between 0.3 and 5 (GeV/c){sup 2}. The data are in agreement with SLAC data at similar kinematics, and are found to follow an average scaling curve. The inclusion of low-momentum transfer data yields a scaling curve resembling deep inelastic neutrino-nucleus scattering data, suggesting a sensitivity to the valence quarks only.
