Details of the Group B Data files

All information on this site is also available for downloading in compressed format from the Documents for the South Africa Survey Data page. (They are called Summary Statistics and Variable Labels.) The summary statistics are available here primarily to verify that the data have not been corrupted in transmission. As these data contain codes for missing values, do not attempt to directly use these summary statistics for analysis.
