  • Form 2 AdressInt, AddressLen -Interview, Mail-out (participant or proxy)

Number of days/months/years

Convert years to months if fractions are included in the years provided by the participant (i.e. 3 1/2 years = 3.5 * 12 = 42 months).

Convert months to days if fractions are included in the months provided by the participant (i.e. 3 1/2 months = 3.5 * 30 = 105 days).

Code only consecutive years living at current location.

MARITAL - ARCHIVE

  • Form 1 LngTrmUnion - Pre-Injury History (participant or proxy)
  • Form 2 FLngTrmUnion- Interview, Mail-Out (participant or proxy)
  • Form 2 MarChange - Interview, Mail-Out (participant or proxy)

If married more than once, code to the most recent.

Characteristics

When first introduced on 4/1/2010, the change of marital status variable did not include a code for separated:

0 No Change
1 Divorce
2 Marriage
3 Widowed
4 Divorce & Marriage (In Either Order)
5 Widowed & Marriage (In Either Order)
6 Divorce, Marriage & Widowed (In Any Order)
7 Other
8 Variable Did Not Exist
9 Unknown

Due to the complete range of codes utilized, it was necessary to re-assign codes and re-code existing data in the database to accommodate the new code for separated added on 4/1/2011:

0 No Change
1 Separation
2 Divorce
3 Marriage
4 Widowed
5 Divorce & Marriage (In Either Order)
6 Widowed & Marriage (In Either Order)
7 Divorce, Marriage & Widowed (In Any Order)
8 Other
9 Unknown
66 Variable did not exist

Consequently, coding on data collection forms will not match database values for cases collected between 10/1/2010 and 3/31/2011.

RACE - ARCHIVE

Definition

Self-reported race.

For a list of the specific racial/ethnic groups that fall within each of the five categories (above), see the “2000 Census of Population and Housing” (US Department of Commerce, 2003), “Summary 1”: See - External Links. The race codes are in the “Technical Documentation” section, starting on page 587. (For TBIMS purposes, this list of race codes used in the 2000 census is sufficiently similar to the list used in the 1990 census.)

The following Bureau of the Census guidelines are to be used to code mixed race: in the event of a mixed white and other race, the other race is used; in the event of mixed races other than white, the race of the father is used.
