Comparability

Aside from changes in wording, there are no comparability issues with this variable. In 1994 the question was asked of half of sample adults. Changes in survey design affect raw frequencies but do not affect comparability of the variable. As always, data users should use the prescribed IPUMS NHIS weights.
