General Social Survey cycle 16: (gssc16) Aging and Social Support - 2002 Abstract: Cycle 16 of the 2002 General Social Survey (GSS) was on 'Aging and Social Support.' Data were collected over an 11-month period from February to December 2002 with a sample of approximately 25,000 respondents representing the non-institutionalized population in the 10 provinces. These tables contain data on the prevalence of care received by seniors because of long-term health problems, the prevalence of informal care given to seniors because of long-term health problems and consequences of providing care to seniors. All tables are available by sex and age groups, and for Canada and the provinces. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SAS/SPSS received from Author Division may produce errors due to the fact value and format names used may be longer then 8 characters. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SURVEY STRUCTURE FOR THE DLI COLLECTION ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ NOTE: - file(s) with extension ..pdf, .zip are Binary and .sas, .sps, .txt are Ascii ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Directory Structure: gss16pumf_errorcorrect_dec8-05.doc CD-gssc16.zip (58,784,282) Compressed GSS16 CD /data /doc /sas-spss ____________________________________________________________ DATA FILE(S): DIRECTORY: /dli/gss/cycle16-2002/data description filename size Main file gssc16dat-main.zip (13,731,849) care-giver gssc16dat-cg4.zip (1,428,065) care-giver gssc16dat-cg6.zip (908,725) care-receiver gssc16dat-cr.zip (1,652,794) _______________________________________________________________________________ DOCUMENTATION: DIRECTORY: /dli/gss/cycle16-2002/doc English User's guide 12m0016-gpe.pdf French User's guide 12m0016-gpf.pdf English Caring for an aging society 89-582-xie03001.pdf French Caring for an aging society 89-582-xif03001.pdf English Aging and Social Support - Tables 89-583-xie03001.pdf French Aging and Social Support - Tables 89-583-xif03001.pdf French questionnaire esgc16que.doc English questionnaire gssc16que.doc PDF Hypertext link pages ------------------------ coverpage.pdf datafiles-E.pdf datafiles-F.pdf license.pdf licensef.pdf toc-f.pdf toc.pdf _______________________________________________________________________________ DOCUMENTATION: DIRECTORY: /dli/gss/cycle16-2002/sas-spss SAS --- c16pumf_main_sas_cards_e.sas c16pumf_main_sas_cards_f.sas c16pumf_cg4_sas_cards_e.sas c16pumf_cg4_sas_cards_f.sas c16pumf_cg6_sas_cards_e.sas c16pumf_cg6_sas_cards_f.sas c16pumf_cr_sas_cards_e.sas c16pumf_cr_sas_cards_f.sas SPSS ---- c16pumf_main_spss_cards_e.sps c16pumf_main_spss_cards_f.sps c16pumf_cg4_spss_cards_e.sps c16pumf_cg4_spss_cards_f.sps c16pumf_cg6_spss_cards_e.sps c16pumf_cg6_spss_cards_f.sps c16pumf_cr_spss_cards_e.sps c16pumf_cr_spss_cards_f.sps
