Explore how IPUMS created this variable
Most IPUMS data transformations are performed using variable harmonization tables that specify how each value in the source data is recoded. Some variables also require programming logic in addition to the harmonization table. The harmonization documents for this variable are:
- Harmonization table
- Supplemental programming
- Instructions for interpreting harmonization documents
class Mig2_p_et : public Editor {
public:
Mig2_p_et(VarPointer varInfo) : Editor(varInfo) {}
void edit() {
long a = getRecoded();
switch (dataSet) {
case dataset_id::et2007a: {
if (ET2007A_0413() == 9999 && ET2007A_0411() == 8)
a = GEO2_ET(0);
} break;
}
setData(a);
}
};
Description
MIG2_P_ET indicates the person's zone of previous residence within Ethiopia. Migration zone codes from MIG2_P_ET are compatible with codes from GEO2_ET.
Click on the Source Variables tab for information on place of residence for each sample year. Source variables may contain more geographic unit detail but are not suitable for cross-temporal comparison.
Comparability — General
Users should be aware that MIG2_P_ET only captures migration within the past 10 years.
Where boundaries changed over time, units were harmonized to create units with boundaries that remain stable over time.
Boundary changes for MIG2_P_ET are too numerous to list here, but users should be aware that there were changes over time.
