Pre-2017 IPUMS-USA Constructed Family Pointers and Related Variables
In 2017, IPUMS-USA updated its methods for constructing the family interrelationship variables SPLOC, MOMLOC, POPLOC, MOMRULE, and POPRULE, as well as added new variables, MOMLOC2, POPLOC2, MOM2RULE, and POP2RULE for samples from 1970 onward. These changes in constructed family interrelationship variables also affect several other constructed variables that depend on these pointers. These variables are NCOUPLES, NFAMS, NFATHERS, NMOTHERS, NCHILD, NCHLT5, NSIBS, ELDCH, YNGCH, FAMSIZE, and FAMUNIT. The files below include the previous version of the family pointers and affected family interrelationship variables. Users should note that the family pointer update resulted in SPRULE, MOMRULE, and POPRULE being split into SPRULE, MOMRULE, and POPRULE for samples from 1970 forward and SPRULE_HIST, MOMRULE_HIST, and POPRULE_HIST for samples prior to 1970. The *RULE variables included in the files below are called SPRULE, MOMRULE, and POPRULE, but are the conceptual equivalent of SPRULE_HIST, MOMRULE_HIST, and POPRULE_HIST in the currently available data. The unique identifiers are SERIAL and PERNUM.
