Redmine Understanding Society User Support - Support #1059 (Resolved): the variable in BHPS "drinking"https://iserredex.essex.ac.uk/support/issues/10592018-09-17T15:23:49ZYuting Deng
<p>Dear Office,</p>
<p>I want to use the variable like "smoking", "drinking" for measure a person's health-related behaviour.<br />However, I can only find "smoking", but I can not find "drinking" in the BHPS dataset.<br />Do "drinking" this variable exist or not?</p>

<p>Dear office,</p>
<p>Since I am using the BHPS 18waves for my research: how the socioeconomics status affect the self-assessed health? <br />I got the socioeconomics status measured by the variable ''employment status'' and ''education status'', ''working hours'', ''income level'' in my main econometric estimating equation.<br />Y= b0+ b1.age <ins>b2.gender</ins> b3.employment <ins>b4.income</ins> b5.education+ b6.working hours. (I am using STATA (an econometric software)for estimation)<br />I find in the documentation, there are 4 types of classification talking about the socioeconomics status. The one that I am most interested in is the international standard classification of occupation ISCO-88, which is available in all waves.<br />After carefully read this classification, i find that there are 10 major group, which describing the individual's job/career.<br />My question is how to incorporate this classification into the variable ''empolyment status'' in my main estimating equation in STATA?</p>
