05/07/07 smarr - Marriage Module cor967.txt OVERVIEW Information about the Sibling Respondent's marriage was collected in the following manner: - In 1975 and 1994, respondents were asked for detailed information regarding their marriage. If the respondent was married at the time of their last interview, the marriage module begins by asking if the respondent is still in the previous marriage. If the respondent is not, or if the respondent was not married at the time of the last interview, the respondent was asked a series of questions about each marriage since the last interview. - If the respondent was currently married, a series of questions about the respondent's current spouse was asked. These questions include details regarding the spouses employment, retirement, and health, as well as the relationship between the respondent and the spouse.
