This codebook is reconstructed by the IRW from the IRW data standard and the script that built it, argentina_2012_aging.do. It is our best reading, not the source’s own codebook, and it may contain mistakes. Where the two disagree, the source data are the authority. If you find an error, please tell us.
| Column | What it is | Source column |
|---|---|---|
| IRW standard columns | ||

item | IRW standard Item identifier. | made in the build script |
resp | IRW standard Response value. | `var' |

What item codes and covariate values stand for is in the source’s codebook, doc_utilizacion_ENCaViAM 2012.pdf, and its questionnaire, cuestionario_encaviam.pdf, which shows the item wording.
Or load it directly in R or Python (both need a free Redivis account; the first call opens a browser to sign in):
# R
install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("itemresponsewarehouse/Rpkg")
library(irw)
df <- irw_fetch("argentina_2012_aging_change")
# Python
pip install irw
import irw
df = irw.fetch("argentina_2012_aging_change")
