Panel data
========
Files: elmps 2018 panel 98_18 v2.0.dta
NOTE: The data are constructed as panel data (wide format) directly from the repeated cross section. Variables repeat as 'variable'_# where # is round, i.e. pn_98, pn_06, pn_12, pn_18 for the person numbers in 1998, 2006, 2012 and 2018 for an individual. If an individual is not present in a round, the variables for that round will be missing.
Variables repeat as 'variable'_# where # is wave, i.e. pn_06, pn_18 for the person
Important Variables:
============
Findid: unique individual identifier from when individual was first observed
hhid_#: unique household identifier, begins with two-digit round number (88, 98, 06, 12)
indid_#: unique individual identifier, begins with two-digit round number (88, 98, 06, 12)
panel_wt_98_06: panel weight for analyzing panel data with individuals observed in 1998 and 2006
panel_wt_98_06_12: panel weight for analyzing panel data with individuals observed in 1998, 2006, and 2012
panel_wt_06_12: panel weight for analyzing panel data with individuals observed in 2006 and 2012
panel_wt_12_18: Panel weight for analyzing panel data with individuals observed in 2012 and 2018
panel_wt_06_12_18: Panel weight for analyzing panel data with individuals observed in 2006, 2012 and 2018
panel_wt_98_06_12_18: Panel weight for analyzing panel data with individuals observed in 1998, 2006, 2012 and 2018
attr_98_06_12_18: categorizes individuals based on whether they were in 1998, 2006, 2012 and 2018
