Long-term depression following stressful life events: feeling ‘worthless’ shows the slowest recovery
Research paper: John Simister (2019) ‘Long-term depression following stressful life events: feeling ‘worthless’ shows the slowest recovery’, Archives of Psychology 3(6):1-20. https://doi.org/10.31296/aop.v3i6
The syntax files which were used to create the variables used in this analysis are Simister_syntaxfile_1 and Simister_syntaxfile_2, to be run in that order. The syntax file, Simister_syntaxfile_1.sps, combines the INDRESP and HHRESP files across 18 waves of BHPS and 8 waves of UKHLS to create one long format individual level file and creates a number of variables: clinicaldepression, earn_net, earn_gross, sp_cCare, LIVEcnty, numAdult, region. The resulting data file is saved as “BHPS and UndS subset.sav”. The syntax file, Simister_syntaxfile2.sps, uses “BHPS and UndS subset.sav” to create additional variables which were used in the analysis in the accompanying paper.
