Description

Hi,

I was wondering whether you would be able to give me some more information on how the variable “hiqual_dv” is coded in the harmonised BHPS (https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/studies/study?id=7453#!/details)? I could not find any concrete information in the documentation or website.

Concretely, I was wondering whether people with further education (but not a degree) such as nurses, or those doing higher vocational training etc. are categorised as being under “Other education” (hiqual_dv==5) or under “other higher degree” (hiqual_dv==2)?

Thanks a lot in advance and best,

Pascale
