ASECWTH and 2014

CPS
1

I understand that there is a caveat with the variable ASECWT in 2014. That issue is described here: IPUMS CPS

It seems that the variable ASECWTH is similarly affected. However, that issue is not mentioned in the documentation for ASECWTH. Just thought of letting you know.

Also, that page that documents the issue, IPUMS CPS, uses the old names of the weight variables.

You’re right that ASECWTH also works differently in 2014. Thanks for pointing out that this isn’t explicitly documented. I’ll pass this and the info about outdated weight variables on to the IPUMS CPS team.
