Description

Hi there,

I know wave 14 of the UKHLS was recently released. However, it seems as though the marriage and cohabitation history file has not yet been updated to account for wave 14. Is it problematic in any way to merge the Wave 14 harmonized UKHLS file with the Marital and Cohabitation Histories, 1991-2022 file? If it's okay to use them together, would you be able to help point me toward the potential variables in the main data I could use to figure out changes in relationship status between waves 13 and 14? Would I just rely on marital status indicators?

Thanks so much in advance!
