General Household Survey, 1995: Teaching Dataset

DOI

Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.

The <i>General Household Survey, 1995 : Teaching Dataset</i> has been prepared solely for the purpose of teaching and student use. Most of the names of the variables and value labels are those used in the original General Household Survey (GHS) files. However, some variables have been recoded for ease of use and may vary from the original GHS data. For the new edition of August 2000, the depositor supplied a new data file - the original file contained an error, which had resulted in adult values being copied into the records of children aged under 16. Please see the READ file for further details. The original GHS 1995-1996 dataset is held at the Archive under SN:3690.

Main Topics:

These data consists of two files (ghs95.por and ghs95b.por). Both files contain 64 variables relating to the following topics: housing; consumer durables; health and use of health services; socio-demographic characteristics; economic status; working hours; social class; household structure; educational attainment; pension membership; income.
