Hello, Is there a variable that indicates heads of SPM resource units (SPM_Head in the CPS ASEC)? I saw there was a prior question about this type of variable in the forum in 2019, but I wanted to check if there has been any updates since then. Appreciate your help – thank you!

No new updates since this post - you can merge this variable in from the NBER data files.
