PROGRAMMER NOTES:
AS CONDITIONS ARE ENTERED, THEY SHOULD BE FLAGGED WITH THE
NUMBER OF THE ROUND IN WHICH THEY WERE FIRST CREATED. THIS
ROUND FLAG WILL BE USED LATER IN THE INTERVIEW TO DETERMINE
WHICH QUESTIONS SHOULD BE ASKED.
ANY CONDITION ADDED TO THE ROSTER SHOULD BE FLAGGED AS
‘CREATED’ THIS ROUND (WITH THE ROUND STATUS). ANY CONDITION
SELECTED AT THE ROSTER SHOULD BE FLAGGED AS ‘SELECTED’ THIS
ROUND (WITH THE ROUND STATUS). THIS FLAGGING SHOULD OCCUR, AT
ALL OF THE PERSON’S-MEDICAL-CONDITIONS-ROSTERS THROUGHOUT THE
INSTRUMENT, THE FIRST TIME THE CONDITION IS ADDED OR SELECTED
DURING THE ROUND. FOR EXAMPLE, IF IT IS ROUND 1, ALL
CONDITIONS ON THE ROSTER WOULD HAVE THE FLAG ‘CREATED - ROUND
1’. IF A CONDITION IS CREATED IN CE, BUT SELECTED IN MV, ALL
DURING ROUND 1, IT WOULD ONLY HAVE THE FLAG ‘CREATED - ROUND
1’. THUS, FOR ANY ONE ROUND, A CONDITION CAN ONLY BE FLAGGED
AS ‘CREATED’ OR ‘SELECTED’. IF IT IS ROUND 2 AND A CONDITION
THAT WAS CREATED IN ROUND 1 IS SELECTED, IT SHOULD BE FLAGGED
AS ‘SELECTED - ROUND 2’. THIS FLAG IS IN ADDITION TO THE
ORIGINAL ‘CREATED - ROUND 1’ FLAG.

HAVE A PREGNANCY REPORTED IN CAPI MAY NOT BE SELECTED AT CE05B
(THE PRND VARIABLE MIGHT NOT BE SET FOR PERSON); THERE IS NO
LINK BETWEEN CE05B AND REPORTS OF PREGNANCY FOR PERSON
