variables stored in the KIDLONG file are based on the information annually collected and stored in the wave-specific $KIND files. The relevant information is not provided by children themselves but by answers to the questions in the household questionnaire given by the respondent within the household (mostly the head of the household). This data is reaggregated at the person level and stored as child-specific entries in the file $KIND. In order to create variables that comprise consistent longitudinal information the variables from the annual $KIND files need to be modified, meaning the information needs to be adjusted to be comparable over time. Since the annual $KIND datasets also contain additional information on institutional care and school attendance for children and young people; in selected waves, questions on the costs of childcare as well as non-institutional care arrangements are also asked. The entries in KIDLONG are identifiable with the codes “20 to 25” in the wave-specific variable $NETTO (in the file PPFAD) or the code “2” in the variable $NETOLD. Please note that “year of birth“, “month of birth“ and “sex“ are not included in this dataset. A child’s year of birth (GEBJAHR), month of birth (GEMONAT) and child’s sex (SEX) are included in PPFAD. In PPFAD you will find consistent longitudinal information. KIDLONG comprises data from waves A……BF, i.e. survey years 1984-2015. KIDLONG is a pooled dataset with the identifiers persnr and syear. 2 Identifier syear – Survey Year Waves: all Variable syear depicts the year of observation. It ranges from 1984 to the most recent wave of data (currently 2015). The variable syear is needed in conjunction with persnr unique identification of a PERSON-YEAR observation in KIDLONG. hhnr – Original Household Number Waves: all hhnrakt – Wave-Specific Household Id Waves: all persnr – Id of Child Waves: all Unique person identifier for each person in the SOEP database. 3 Basic demographics (var names starting with K) k_samp – Subsample Identifier Tns-Infratest 1[1] A German HH head, West 45465 2[2] B1 Turkish HH head 10566 3[3] B2 Yugoslavian HH head 3545 4[4] B3 Greek HH head 2243 5[5] B4 Italian HH head 4242 SOEP Survey Papers 414 4 SOEP Core study (v32) kidlong (v32) 6[6] B5 Spanish HH head 1696 7[7] C German HH head, East 21154 8[8] D1 Immigrant W.

It contains unchanging sample information: for example, a person from sample C would retain this original sample number (the sample in which the household first entered SOEP) even after having later moved to West Germany (see also the comments on the variables $sampreg in the documentation of PPFAD). Similarly, a person from sample B who acquired a new nationality would still remain in his or her original sample. k_nat – Nationality 0[0] Nationality Same As HH Head 957 1[1] Germany 242 2[2] Turkish 653 3[3] Yugoslavia 262 4[4] Greece 177 5[5] Italy 289 6[6] Spain 147 11 [11] France 2 12 [12] Benelux 1 15 [15] Sweden 3 18 [18] USA 2 23 [23] Korea 3 24 [24] Iran 1 SOEP Survey Papers 414 5 SOEP Core study (v32) kidlong (v32) 25 [25] Indonesia 2 28 [28] Portugal 1 29 [29] Bulgaria 3 39 [39] Israel 6 43 [43] Afghanistan 2 -1 [-1] No Answer 83 -2 [-2] Does not apply 181183 -3 [-3] Answer improbable 0 -4 [-4] Inadmissible multiple response 0 -5 [-5] Not included in this version of the questionnaire 0 -6 [-6] Version of questionnaire with modified filtering 0 Waves: 1984,1985 Please note that this variable was only included in the survey in wave A (1984) and wave E (1988). k_inhh – Member of Household 0[0] Lives in HH 157356 2[2] Vocational Training, Study 11 3[3] Occupation, Assembling 3 4[4] Hospital 1 5[5] Absent On Trip 15 6[6] Other 20 11 [11] Born 7174 12 [12] Moved Within W.

For ks_none value 1 describes whether children do not attend preschool ks_preor do not attend any general schools depicted in ks_gen. From 1984 until 2008 (waves A …Y),value 1 summarizes if none of these institutions were attended. In 2009 (wave Z) the survey mode changed: preschool attendance is inquired separately from ks_gen and this new variable includes nonparticipation. Value 3 of ks_none depicts this change. Also value 2 (none of these schools) indicates that for wave Z the old variable now contains only nonparticipation of general school education. Values 2 and 3 apply to waves Z …BE. ks_east – General School East Germany 1[1] Polytechnical Secondary School 1618 2[2] Secondary School 31 3[3] Specialized School 18 4[4] Special School 27 5[5] Other Comprehensive School 15 6[6] Vocational School 10 7[7] Other School 13 -1 [-1] No Answer 0 -2 [-2] Does not apply 182287 -3 [-3] Answer improbable 0 -4 [-4] Inadmissible multiple response 0 -5 [-5] Not included in this version of the questionnaire 0 -6 [-6] Version of questionnaire with modified filtering 0 The variable ks_east summarizes additional school type information collected in waves G and H (1990/ 91) in East Germany.

In 1986, provider of facility was surveyed for the first time and did not comprise an item for private provider. The information from waves D and L were integrated in the variables format of waves N, S, V and X. This format is used in kd_publ -kd_comm. In 2011 provider of facility was separately inquired for institutions of general school education ks_gen and day care institutions ks_pre. To depict this change two additional values were introduced to all variables ks_publ,kd_indep,kd_priv,kd_comp and kd_comm.

The institutions are pre-school, creche and nursery (also after school nursery). The variable kd_time is observed from wave L …BB. Throughout this time period the survey mode changed. In 2009 the question specifically asks whether a child attends the school full time or not (see ks_gen). For waves L …Y the options are represented by values 1, 2, and 3 and value 4 depicts answers since wave Z. kd_hrs – Hours Per Day Spend at Facility The variable kd_hrs contains information on how many hours per day a child attends an institution. The institutions are pre-school, creche and nursery (also after school nursery). The variable kd_hrs has been introduced in the SOEP in 2009. kd_lunch – Lunch at the Facility 1[1] Yes 15394 2[2] No 12877 -1 [-1] No Answer 379 -2 [-2] Does not apply 155369 -3 [-3] Answer improbable 0 -4 [-4] Inadmissible multiple response 0 -5 [-5] Not included in this version of the questionnaire 0 -6 [-6] Version of questionnaire with modified filtering 0 The variable kd_lunch contains information collected in waves N, S, V, X, BB and BF.
