Hello,
I noticed that the link to the code page provided for “IND” variable for Mozambique 2017 is not working. Could you please check on that?
Thank you so much!
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. It appears that we used the incorrect variable to code observations for IND in the 2017 Mozambique sample. The IPUMS-International team plans to implement a fix in the next week or two that will reassign data from the source variable MZ2017A_0470 to IND. The link in the codes tab will also be edited to point to this source variable. In reviewing other recently released samples, it was also determined that a similar error was included in the IND data for the Mongolia 2010 sample. Data from the source variable MN2010A_0436 will instead be used for this sample.
We really appreciate your recent posts that have alerted us to these issues and helped us improve the data for all. We like to offer an IPUMS branded mug as a token of gratitude for our users who make these types of contributions. Please reach out to us at ipums@umn.edu with an address that we can ship your mug to.
