openCAPI ringfence variable
80%
Description
I’m interested in the effect of mode on a metric. The user guide suggests using the "ringfence" variable for sensitivity analysis. However, I understand ringfence has been removed from the latest data release. How can I investigate the effect of mode? Can I be provided with a previous data release when ringfence was still included? Thanks

Hi Alex,
We would advise to request the UKDS for the 2023 version of the data which includes this variable. We provide information on how to do this here: https://www.understandingsociety.ac.uk/documentation/access-data/

Thanks for the advice. I requested the 2023 version at the end of Jan using the contact form (https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/help) but haven't heard back. Do you know if the request was received / likely timescale for accessing the data? Thanks

Hello Alex,
UKDS handles all their requests, so we wouldn’t be able to provide a timescale.
I recommend submitting your inquiry using the help desk form (https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/help).
I hope this information is helpful.
Best wishes,
