Variable note:
This is a variable that is fed forward from previous waves to route respondents appropriately in the questionnaire. To aid data collection, information reported at an earlier time is fed forward to the respondent to personalize the question. Rather than ask a question about the language the interview was conducted, the question might say: When we interviewed you on [ff_Idate], the interview was conducted in [ff_ivintlang]. Is that still the case?
Question asked in the latest wave:
interviewerobs_w2.ivlang
Question label:
Language of translation
Question universe:
