Open Responses from the Household Questionnaire
Several questions in the questionnaire, for example, type of housing, allow the interviewer to enter a code for "other" and to write in the response when none of the provided answers is appropriate. The answers that were written-in have been coded and are included in the data set HHOPEN. The variables in HHOPEN include five variables from Section 2A and 2B DOMX WATERX COOKX HEATX PHONEX and four variables from Section 6 on Displaced Persons S6B10AX S6B10BX S6B10CX OTHORGX. Each variable corresponds to the variable in the household data sets. The X has been added to differentiate the two variables.
For most uses, it will be sufficient for the researcher to use the other as a generic category. However, if the subject of research is household gas use, then the researcher may need to use the "other" answers to differentiate households.
