2020 Spring Data Release
LIS is happy to announce the release of thirteen additional micro datasets to the LIS Database: Belgium – BE04 (Wave VI), BE07 (Wave VII), BE10 (Wave VIII), BE13 (Wave IX) and BE16 (Wave X), Canada –CA12 (Wave IX), CA14 (Wave IX), CA15 (Wave X), CA16 (Wave X), and CA17 (Wave X), Czech Republic – CZ16 (Wave X), Italy – IT16 (Wave X), and Palestine – PS17 (Wave X).
In addition, one new dataset has been added to the LWS Database, Italy – IT16 (Wave X).
With this release, the following Datasets have been revised:
Luxembourg Income Study (LIS)
- Belgium – Variables emp and lfs are now available in datasets BE85 and BE88. Datasets BE85, BE88, BE92, BE95, BE97, and BE00 have been revised for consistency, particularly the labour market and income sections.
- Canada – Variables hc41 (actual rent), hc4 (actual rent and utilities), hxmort (mortgage instalments), and hhouscost (housing costs) are now available in datasets CA07, CA10, and CA13. Household composition and living arrangements related variables (partner, parents, nchildren, and ageyoch) are now available for a larger universe in CA07, CA10, and CA13.
- Czech Republic – An error in variable status1 (status in employment, main job) has been corrected in datasets CZ10 and CZ13.
- Germany – Variable hourstot is now available in DE16.
- Italy – The provision of more detailed variables for taxes and social contributions (as simulated by the Bank of Italy) allowed the addition of taxes and contributions to all labour income and pension variables in IT14; as a result, income variables are now reported gross rather than net and variable grossnet has been revised accordingly.
- Sweden – Variables emp and lfs are now available in SE75. Variable lfs was reviewed in SE81 and SE05, with impact on emp in SE05 only.
Luxembourg Wealth Study (LWS)
- Germany – Variable hourstot is now available in DE17.
- Italy – The provision of more detailed variables for taxes and social contributions (as simulated by the Bank of Italy) allowed the addition of taxes and contributions to all labour income and pension variables in IT14; as a result, income variables are now reported gross rather than net and variable grossnet has been revised accordingly.
- Variable bocd1_c (constraints in debt repayment) is now available in IT08, IT10, and IT14.
- Luxembourg – Replicate weights have been added to LU10 and LU14.
- Japan – Variables hxmort (mortgage instalments), hxloan (installment for other loans), and hhouscost (housing costs) have been corrected in JP04.
- Spain – Replicate weights have been added to ES02, ES05, ES11, and ES14.
- Canada – Integrated net worth is now available in CA99, CA05, CA12, and CA16.
