Cognitive ability: Number series: Set 1 A+B total score
Cognitive ability: Number series: Set 1, sum of component A and component B. Total score may range between 0 and 6. Users should exercise care when treating results from Set 2, component A and B as equivalent; there was a survey implementation error in the collection of Set 2 which means scores from Set 1 and Set 2 may not be combined and used as a single indicator. For further information on the cognitive ability measures on the UKHLS, see S McFall (2013): Understanding Society: UK Household Longitudinal Study: Cognitive Ability Measures.
