Description

I am interested in using the wave 2 main interview data linked to the nurse assessment data on biomarkers for this sample only (i.e. I am only interested in the GPS sample, not combining with the BHPS sample who had their nurse assessment after wave 3). I understand from the Nurse Assessment user guide that I should use the weight variable 'b_indnsus_xw' for this type of analysis. However I cannot seem to find this variable in the wave 2 main data or the nurse's assessment data. Would you be able to advise where it can be found? Many thanks.

Dear Rachel,

According to the online documentation, this variable can be found in the b_indresp_ns datafile:
