Phone: Selected Child
During the 1975 interview one of the respondents children was randomly chosen as the "selected" child. We intended to ask about this same child if he/she were still alive during the 1992-1993 interview. However, due to an error in the first version of the survey instrument, the "selected" child was randomly chosen for groups 0 and 1 (GROUP91=0 or 1) for the nonsib sample (XSTAT77=99). Of course this randomly chosen child was sometimes the same child as the 1975 selected child and sometimes he/she was different. Variable RDB02SK indicates if a new child was selected and the reason for the new selection. Please note that RDB002SK contains the codes from RD002SK prior to 2004. If the selected child was deceased, a new child was chosen in 1992. In order to avoid confusion, in 2004, we agreed to follow the same selected child. In 2004, the data file was restructured so that data for all selected children who were newly chosen for any reason other than noninterview of R previously are no longer available in the master data set. Data for these selected child variables is available in a separate module - newchild92. 678 cases are in newchild92. Variable RDB02SK is coded 4 (new child chosen due to death of 1975 selected child), 5 (new child due to error in instrument) or 7 (2 cases, random error) for cases whose data is only available in newchild92. Variables RD002SK-RD016SK of KROS and all the variables in SKID (RJ001SK-RJ051SK) have been moved to newchild92 for children newly selected in 92. Data in the master file for these variables is coded not ascertained (-4) for the 678 cases if there is no information available from the 1975 or 1993 interview. Seven respondents refused to reveal any information regarding children. Thus we do not know whether or not they have any children. These cases are coded 9 or 99 or 999 as appropriate for all questions in this section. rj001sk Number of children selected child has. rj002sk State of selected child's residence. rj003sk-rj004sk Current college attendance of selected child. rj005sk-rj010sk Degree from college or university (selected child). rj011sk-rj014sk Past and future school attendance (selected child). rj015sk-rj018sk Respondent's preference, influence, and perceived influence regarding selected child's education. rj019sk-rj020sk Selected child's military service. rj021sk-rj022sk Child's current/past activity, employment. rju23sk-rju24sk 1970 census occupation and industry for current/last job. rju25sk-rju31sk Class of worker, summary occupation and industry, status scores for current/last job. rj032sk-rj038sk 1990 census occupation and industry for current/last job. Summary occupation and industry, status scores for current/last job. rj040sk Were questions RJ041SK-RJ051SK in the random sample? rj041sk-rj042sk Respondent's assistance to selected child with finding a job. rj043sk-rj046sk Respondent's frequency of contact with selected child. rj047sk-rj048sk Similarity and closeness between respondent and selected child. rj049sk-rj051sk Comparison of education, work and finances between respondent and child.
