Variable note:

The question which asks the reason why the most recent job ended - 'stendreas' - changed from 'code one option' to 'code all that apply' in Wave 7. As a result of this change, from Wave 7 onward, instead of one variable w_stendreas, there are 11 variables (0-1 not mentioned - mentioned). New response option code added in Wave 11: 12 Furloughed
