Documentation for the Tanzania HRDS

In order to use the data from the Tanzania Human Resource Development Survey Data, it is necessary to download supporting documentation, which includes questionnaires, codebooks, data dictionaries, and various manuals. All materials are available in both Postscript and PDF format. If you do not know which format you prefer, return to the page on Document Formats for a description of these formats.

DECRG has posted all materials regarding the HRDS which we have, and we expect that this will be more than sufficient to use the data. The HRDS documents are split into two groups--core and supplemental. To use the data you will need to download the core documents. The supplemental documents may be of interest to some researchers, but are not necessary for use of the data.

As of 6/12/96 the core and supplemental documents were re-written to PDF and PostScript formats to correct for some formatting problems users had informed us of. The only changes made were adjustments to the formatting to allow for easier and clearer printing of the documents. If you downloaded these files prior to this date, you may wish to download them again.

The core documents are all PKzipped into one file called CORE_PDF.zip for the Adobe PDF formatted files or CORE_EPS.zip for the Postscript formatted files. These compressed, binary files contain the following files:

Core Documents:
---------------
SURV_ENG                Household Questionnaire (English)
