Description

Hi,
Please could you point me in the right direction to find the 'detailed variable view' referred to in documentation, so that I can access descriptions of derived variables.
Kind regards,
David

Derived variables have got the suffix, _dv, see e.g.
https://www.understandingsociety.ac.uk/documentation/mainstage/dataset-documentation/wave/2/datafile/b_indresp/variable/b_jbnssec_dv

For the time being you might have to use * as wild card, e.g. * bmi * rather than bmi
Let us know if this did not answer your questions.

Ok, I had seen these individual variable pages but I thought there may be more detail somewhere. Thanks.
