ICPSR PROCESSING NOTE FOR # 35348
Outlook on Life Surveys, 2012
1) Confidentiality:
 ICPSR has recoded numeric variables with sensitive information using top and
bottom coding methods to protect respondent confidentiality.
 Values that were deemed as indirect identifiers (such as interview date and time)
ICPSR used a series of data coarsening techniques to protect for confidentiality.
2) Question Text:
 Question text was added to the data based on the original data collection
instrument deposited by the Principal Investigator.
3) Value and Variable labels:

 Value and Variable labels were standardized based on the original data
collection instrument deposited by the Principal Investigator.
 Any spelling errors found in the value labels were corrected during ICPSR
processing.
4) Missing Values:
 Missing values were standardized as per the study’s convention.

Variable Description and Frequencies
Note: Frequencies displayed for the variables are not

weighted. They are purely descriptive and may not be
representative of the study population. Please review any
sampling or weighting information available with the study.
Summary statistics (minimum, maximum, mean, median, and

standard deviation) may not be available for every variable in
the codebook. Conversely, a listing of frequencies in table
format may not be present for every variable in the codebook
either. However, all variables in the dataset are present and
display sufficient information about each variable. These
decisions are made intentionally and are at the discretion of
the archive producing this codebook.
