Comparability — General

Most of the age groups in AGE2 are 5-year intervals. The Israel 1983 sample has inconsistent groupings for ages in the teens and early twenties. The groupings are not consistent for Italy 2011 for categories under 15 years old.

See the codes page. All other samples are fully consistent.

The samples for Israel (1972, 1983, 1995), 2016 Ireland, 2001 Italy, Palestine, the Netherlands, Slovenia, and the Slovak Republic only reported grouped ages. The 1971-2006 Ireland, 2011 Italy, and 2014 Morocco samples report some ages in intervals and others in single years.

All other samples in AGE2 offer single years of age in AGE. The AGE variable also contains the data for the samples in AGE2, coded to the mid-points of the intervals.

The 2001 United Kingdom and 2010 Finland samples grouped ages incompatibly with AGE2. The U.K. categories are preserved in AGE3, where they are harmonized with the 1991 sample from that country. The 2010 Finland sample age categories are coded to mid-points of the intervals in AGE.

AGE2 is top-coded at age 85+, but some samples have top-codes at ages of 75 or 80.

Comparability — Armenia [top]

The 2001 sample is top-coded at age 80+.

Comparability — Egypt [top]

The 1996 sample is top-coded at 98+ years; 2006 at 99+ years. The 1996-2006 samples appear to underreport babies under age one.

Comparability — Honduras [top]

The 1961 sample is top-coded at 75+.

Comparability — Ireland [top]

In the 1971-2006 samples, age is reported in single years up to 19, and thereafter is recorded in 5-year age groups. The single years of age are also recorded in the variable AGE. In 2016, age is reported in 5-year intervals.

Comparability — Israel [top]

The data in the 1972, 1983, and 1995 samples are top-coded at age 80+. The 1983 sample has inconsistent groupings for ages in the teens and early twenties.

Comparability — Italy [top]

The 2011 sample has inconsistent groupings for categories under 15 years old and is top-coded at 75+.

Comparability — Laos [top]

The 2005 sample is top-coded at 80+ years.

Comparability — Morocco [top]

The 2014 sample is top-coded at 75+ years.

Comparability — Netherlands [top]

The sample for 1960 is top-coded at age 75+ and the other samples at 80+.

Comparability — Pakistan [top]

There is an implausibly low number of persons age 5 to 9 in the 1981 sample.

Comparability — Palestine [top]

The data in the 1997 and 2007 samples are top-coded at 80+ years.

Comparability — Papua New Guinea [top]

The 1980 sample is top-coded at 80+.

Comparability — Saint Lucia [top]

The samples are top-coded at age 80+.

Comparability — Slovakia [top]

The 1991, 2001, and 2011 samples are top-coded at 80+ years.

Comparability — Spain [top]

Comparability — Trinidad and Tobago [top]

Age is unknown in 2011 for special population (hotels, worker camps, ships in harbor, or street dwellers).

Comparability — United Kingdom [top]

The 2001 sample grouped ages in a manner incompatible with AGE2. See AGE3 for that sample.

Comparability — Zambia [top]

The 2010 sample is top coded at 80+.
