Wave IV Constructed Current Relationship Status

Year: 2025

Type: report

Abstract: Add Health Wave IV data provide detailed information about the romantic relationship history of each respondent. The relationship sections, including Section 16A, 16B, and 17, have a complex data structure. One needs to incorporate a list of variables across sections and go through multiple steps of data management to construct a current relationship status variable. In order to facilitate the use of relationship data, we decided to release the Wave IV current relationship status variables Chen and Harris developed for their research projects. This documentation describes how Wave IV current relationship status and related flag variables were constructed.
