MEPS: Errata Notice
Posted December 22nd, 2007 by Lisa Broniszewski in Data Archive Updates, MEPSMEPS has announced an Errata for all data housed at PRI.
The variable FOODCT04 should not be used because it is based on an invalid question in the survey instrument. This question asks “About how much did the family pay each month for food stamps?” when in fact, as of 1979, the food stamp program no longer maintained a purchase requirement. All responses are considered invalid.
