Eligibility flag for QFHIGH in UKHLS format
Datafile
Index terms
Derived variable note:
Flag for whether a respondent has ever been asked the initial conditions highest qualification question (QFHIGH). The group who has never been asked is mainly comprised of BHPS respondents and Rising 16's who had a youth interview in Wave 1 and were incorrectly routed out of the initial conditions module in Wave 2. From Wave 6 onwards it also includes members of the IEMB sample who provided an adult interview and reported that their highest qualification was obtained abroad (see F_QFHIGHOTH and F_ISCED11_DV). Highest qualifications (see QFHIGH_DV, NQFHIGH_DV and HIQUAL_DV) may be picked up through QUALNEW or TRQUAL for these groups but may be additional to pre-existing (potentially higher) unobserved qualifications.
