Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document describes an alternative format for data from the First Malaysian Family Life Survey (MFLS-1) wherein different card types have been split out into separate subfiles. Users of MFLS-1 data may find this multiple subfile format easier to use than the original single file hierarchical format. The subfiles have the same record layout as described in the MFLS-1 codebook (R-2351/5). This document also describes the repunched and revised MFLS-1 male migration history data from MF10, and describes four new files containing data not included on the original MFLS-1 tape. The revised MF10 data is only a subset of the entire set of MF10 questions. The four new data files contain some recall test questions and updated infant feeding and amenorrhea information for women with children under age 3 (see MFLS-1 questionnaire for documentation, R-2351/1).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The data from the Second Malaysian Family Life Survey (MFLS-2) provide a rich but complex database. This User's Guide describes the MFLS-2 data structure and presents detailed descriptions of the variety of information available, and how it can be put together. This Guide is meant to be a companion to the MFLS-2 Codebook and provides guidelines on how to build analysis files from the data. For example, the authors discuss how to identify various individuals of interest (e.g. husbands, wives, children, parents of respondents) and how to link data from different parts of a particular person's questionnaire with one another and with data from the questionnaires of related individuals. The multiple file structure of the MFLS-2 makes linking files the major task in building analysis files. This Guide also addresses issues that arise in trying to link data from the first Malaysian Family Life Survey (MFLS-1) in 1976-77 and MFLS-2, which was fielded in 1988-89. One objective of MFLS-2 was to reinterview as many as possible of the original 1,262 MFLS-1 respondents. Seventy-two percent of the original MFLS-1 respondents were successfully reinterviewed, providing not only information on what happened to them since 1976, but a full retrospective history that recovered events previously reported in MFLS-1. The long time span of information for those reinterviewed MFLS-1 respondents and the chance to examine issues of recall bias require linking of MFLS-2 responses to MFLS-1 responses for these women and their families. Information and suggestions on linking MFLS-1 and MFLS-2 data are thus also provided in this Guide.
Download or read book The Second Malaysian Family Life Survey written by Julie DaVanzo and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 1993 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document discusses the design and development of the survey instruments for the Second Malaysian Family Life Survey (MFLS-2), which was carried out in Peninsular Malaysia in 1988-1989. It also presents the findings of debriefings with field staff during and after the fieldwork and contains the actual survey instruments (MR-107/1) and the Interviewer Instructions. This document should be useful to users of the MFLS-2 data and to those designing their own surveys in Malaysia or in other countries. The discussions regarding instrument development (i.e., why the MFLS-2 asked the questions it did) should be especially valuable to MFLS-2 users who would like to combine the MFLS-2 data with data from the First Malaysian Family Life Survey (MFLS-1) conducted in 1976-1977. The interviewer debriefings will help users assess the quality of various parts of the MFLS-2 data.

This book was released on 2019-01-10 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two decades after its original publication, The Analysis of Household Surveys is reissued with a new preface by its author, Sir Angus Deaton, recipient of the 2015 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences. This classic work remains relevant to anyone with a serious interest in using household survey data to shed light on policy issues. The book reviews the analysis of household survey data, including the construction of household surveys, the econometric tools useful for such analysis, and a range of problems in development policy for which this survey analysis can be applied. Chapter 1 describes the features of survey design that need to be understood in order to undertake appropriate analysis. Chapter 2 discusses the general econometric and statistical issues that arise when using survey data for estimation and inference. Chapter 3 covers the use of survey data to measure welfare, poverty, and distribution. Chapter 4 focuses on the use of household budget data to explore patterns of household demand. Chapter 5 discusses price reform, its effects on equity and efficiency, and how to measure them. Chapter 6 addresses the role of household consumption and saving in economic development. The book includes an appendix providing code and programs using STATA, which can serve as a template for users' own analysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document discusses the purpose, design, fieldwork, and response rates for the Second Malaysian Family Life Survey (MFLS-2), carried out in Peninsular Malaysia in 1988-1989. MFLS-2 was, in part, a follow-up to the original Malaysian Family Life Survey, fielded in 1976-1977, reinterviewing original respondents and their adult children, plus interviewing a new group of women age 15-49 in 1988. Both surveys produced household-level retrospective and current data from women and their husbands, covering such topics as fertility, nuptiality, migration, mortality, employment, household composition, transfers, and income as well as social, economic, and community-level factors affecting family decisionmaking. MFLS-2 added a sample of older Malaysians to support research on their living standards, health, and intergenerational transfers. Besides MFLS-2 users, this document should interest those planning household surveys in Malaysia or elsewhere, especially those attempting to reinterview a panel of respondents to an earlier survey.

Download or read book Income Inequality and Poverty in Malaysia written by Shireen Mardziah Hashim and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 1998 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thorough analysis of Malaysia's economic expansion evaluates the success of the government's New Economic Policy (NEP), which was designed to promote national unity by reducing poverty as well as by loosening the link between ethnicity and economic function. The first comprehensive analysis of income distribution trends after the inauguration of the NEP, the study also considers interethnic, urban-rural, and regional variations over time. Although there have been significant reductions in poverty and income inequality, Hashim uses previously unpublished data to show that both are still rampant.
Download or read book The Accuracy of Retrospective Data from the Malaysian Family Life Survey written by John Haaga and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Note assesses the accuracy of retrospective data on fertility, contraceptive use, birthweight of children, infant and fetal mortality, breastfeeding, education, and housing, covering several decades, reported in a multi-round household survey of Malaysian women. Checks of internal consistency, external validity, and re-test reliability are used. Fertility, mortality, and education data appear to be highly accurate. Digit preference in reported durations is evident. Respondent characteristics (ethnicity, education, and urban residence) are, surprisingly, much more important determinants of accuracy than the length of the recall period.
