Comparability
A slight change in universe between 1994 and 1998 samples may affect comparability between samples. Changes in survey design (e.g., quarters in which the supplement was collected) may affect raw frequencies, but do not affect comparability of the variable. As always, data users should use the prescribed IPUMS NHIS weights.
