Health prevents work
For the 1996-2004 panels, information on work-preventing disability comes from core
question edisprev during wave 2 for people ages 15-69, when respondents were asked
whether health prevented work. This indicator is supplemented with details from the
Functional Limitations and Disability topical module (wave 5 for 1996-2004 panels,
variable ejobcant) that covers people ages 16-67. For the 1990-1993 panels, the core
questionnaire does not ask respondents whether health prevents work. This information
is solely obtained from the Functional Limitations and Disability topical module (waves
3, 3, 6, 3 for 1990-1993 panels, variables TM8922 and TM8924) that covers people ages
16-67. When available, the core and topical modules were used in conjunction to construct
summary measures of disability, with any positive indication of health preventing
work flagging the positive response.
