Other parent code

Type: number

Interviewer Instruction: RECORD MOTHER/FATHER CODE. RECORD WHICH CHILDREN HAVE THE SAME MOTHER/FATHER, USING CODES TO INDICATE WHICH CHILDREN HAVE THE SAME PARENT RATHER THAN RECORDING ACTUAL NAMES SO, START WITH THE FIRST CHILD IN YOUR LIST AND CODE THEIR PARENT AS '1', AND CHECK WHICH OTHER CHILDREN HAVE THE SAME PARENT AND ALSO CODE THEM AS '1'. THEN FOR RESPONDENT'S SECOND EX-PARTNER CODE ALL THE CHILDREN THAT THEY HAD TOGETHER AS CODE '2', AND SO ON.

Text: I'd like to ask some questions about each person with whom you've had children. So that I don't ask the same set of questions twice, I need to record which children you had with each of your partners. We don't need your partner's name, but we'll use a code to identify which children have the same parent.

Asking for details of other parent of non-resident child

Type: choice

Source: UKHLS

Text: Understanding more about the people who affect your and your children's lives is very important to us. To fully understand a child's development, it is very important to have information from both parents. We would be interested in contacting the other parent of your child as part of this study to ask them to complete a survey about the time they spend together, their health and living arrangements. The information about their lives would be of great benefit to researchers and policy-makers relying on this study. All of your survey answers are completely confidential and we would not pass on any information that you tell us to them, only that they are invited because you are part of Understanding Society. In giving these details you are not committing them to take part. All participation is entirely voluntary and they could choose whether or not to take part.
