Using family-related variables from the Census of Population and the National Household Survey microdata files [electronic resource] / by Heather Lathe, Anne Milan and Nadine Laflamme. Ottawa : Statistics Canada, 2016. 22 p. Demographic documents 1205-996X No. 12 "Release date: December 22, 2016." Issued also in French under title: Utilisation des variables relatives à la famille obtenues des fichiers de microdonnées du Recensement de la population et de l'Enquête nationale auprès des ménages. Includes bibliographical references. "Family-related variables are a significant part of the Census of Population, but in order to use them appropriately for research purposes, it is important to understand them. This article provides information on using family-related variables from the microdata files of the 2011 Census and earlier censuses, as well as those of the 2011 National Household Survey (NHS). These microdata files vary in their attributes depending on whether they are located internally at Statistics Canada, in the Research Data Centres (RDCs), or whether they are public-use microdata files (PUMFs). This article compares these three versions of the microdata files including their similarities and differences. It explains technical aspects of using family related variables such as how additional family variables (using the concepts of census families or economic families) can be created for analytical purposes, including the creation of multi-level variables. This article is a useful supplement to technical documentation already with the 2011 Census microdata files and those of previous censuses"--Abstract. gccst Census gccst Family gccst Statistics Laflamme, Nadine.
