This merged file contains the items from the core questionnaire for all the countries included in the 2014 round of surveys, and country-specific items that were included in more than one country, the rest of the county- specific items are excluded. The files also contain a variable called “WEIGHT1500â€ that makes each country file weighted to a sample size of 1,500 so that no one country would count any more than any other in a comparative analysis. In the SPSS version of these data sets, the weight variable should be activated. In STATA the weight variable can be activated through the command svy setting: svyset upm [pw=wt], strata (estratopri) or should be specified for other commands.
Stata files contain labels in both English and Spanish. To change the language, use the commands: label language en OR label language es.
