Abstract

This dataset includes imputation for missing data in key variables in the ten percent sample of the 2001 South African Census. Researchers at the Centre for the Analysis of South African Social Policy (CASASP) at the University of Oxford used sequential multiple regression techniques to impute income, education, age, gender, population group, occupation and employment status in the dataset. The main focus of the work was to impute income where it was missing or recorded as zero. The imputed results are similar to previous imputation work on the 2001 South African Census, including the single ‘hot-deck’ imputation carried out by Statistics South Africa.
