CHNS 2004 Cross-Section Released; Longitudinal Files Re-released

Posted March 16th, 2006 by Jen Darragh in CHNS, Data Archive Updates

The China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) project has just released preliminary cross-section data for 2004, and re-released all longitudinal data files (3/9/2006). The new files have been added to the PRI PopNet UNIX CHNS collection.

Please register with the CHNS project prior to using data on PopNet. Registration is short, and is primarily used by the CHNS project to show that there is interest in the data, and to provide users with information about the data (updates, new releases, etc.).

Note that there are no codebooks for these files - just questionnaires and general documentaiton available from the CHNS Project Web site.
