Description

WIFLKREA reports the method by which husband-wife links were made or rejected, as determined by the creators of the 1910 samples that were developed prior to the existence of the IPUMS (these include the national 0.4% 1910 sample and the 1910 Black oversample). These samples have since been integrated into the IPUMS as part of the "1910 1.4% sample with oversamples." The cases containing WIFLKREA are identified in the SAMP1910 variable, where they have values of 5 or 6.

"Simple links" were those made following the rules listed in WIFENO. "Simple rejects" were made in all one-person households, and in cases where there was no more than one person whose marital status was married, widowed, divorced, or unreported. "Probability" and "hand" links or rejects were made according to a more complicated system, based upon the weighting factors listed in WIFLNKWT.

This variable is not available for any of the currently selected samples.

Comparability

This variable is only available for the 1910 1.4% sample with oversamples. SPRULE reports the rationale for husband-wife links made for SPLOC, an IPUMS constructed variable available for all years.
