NLTS2 Waves 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 Data Documentation and Dictionary Index of Variables Glossary Variables are indexed to the pages where they are located in the data dictionary. Pages are numbered within data collection wave, instrument, and, if there are sections within the instrument, within section letter. Examples: "C1-B-14" would be found in the Wave 3 ("C"), Parent/Youth Survey ("1") dictionary, Section B ("B"), on page 14 ("14"). A variable listed with a page number "A2-B-6" would be found in the Wave 1 ("A") Teacher Survey ("2") dictionary in section B ("B") on page 6 ("6"). Variables that are not associated with a section, such as preload variables for interviews or sample data, will be at the beginning of the dictionary and will not have a section letter. The page listed as D1-4" would be found in Wave 4 ("D"), Parent/Youth Interview ("1") on the 4th page at the beginning of the dictionary. Printed versions of the documentation will have pages numbered sequentially. Working electronically, a fast way to find the page is to copy the page number code or variable name from the index, go to the dictionary for that wave, and paste code or name into "find" to go directly to the documentation for that variable.

Glossary Variables are indexed to the pages where they are located in the data dictionary. Pages are numbered within data collection wave, instrument, and, if there are sections within the instrument, within section letter. Examples: "C1-B-14" would be found in the Wave 3 ("C"), Parent/Youth Survey ("1") dictionary, Section B ("B"), on page 14 ("14"). A variable listed with a page number "A2-B-6" would be found in the Wave 1 ("A") Teacher Survey ("2") dictionary in section B ("B") on page 6 ("6"). Variables that are not associated with a section, such as preload variables for interviews or sample data, will be at the beginning of the dictionary and will not have a section letter. The page listed as D1-4" would be found in Wave 4 ("D"), Parent/Youth Interview ("1") on the 4th page at the beginning of the dictionary. Printed versions of the documentation will have pages numbered sequentially. Working electronically, a fast way to find the page is to copy the page number code or variable name from the index, go to the dictionary for that wave, and paste code or name into "find" to go directly to the documentation for that variable.
