LASAz014
Identification variable: RESPNR in combination with Z014REC
Note: for each respondent and for each wave, multiple records indicating different moves between observations may exist.
zmovedw move reported at wave b-e (alphanumeric variable; b indicates a move between wave a and wave b)
zmovedat date of move (yyyymm)
zpcold postal code before move (4 digits)
zpcnew postal code after move (4 digits)
zmunold municipality before move (code Statistics Netherlands)
zmunnew municipality after move (code Statistics Netherlands)
zmoved type of move
1 within postal code; 2 within municipality, to other postal code; 3 to other municipality; 4 to abroad
zmovedis distance of moving (kilometers)
This variable is based on X and Y coordinates derived from a database provided by NCBS. See the variables axcoord and aycoord in LSNa095.
zurbold level of urbanization (1993) before move
zurbnew level of urbanization (1993) after move
-2'abroad; 1 not (<500); 2 little (500-1000); 3 somewhat (1000-1500); 4 highly (1500-2500); 5 very highly (>2500)
The mean number of addresses per squared kilometer within a circle with a radius of one kilometer (Den Dulk, Van de Stadt & Vliegen, 1992). The aim is to measure the concentration of human activities.
LASAz214
Identification variable: RESPNR
zmoved moved between a&e
bmoved moved between a&b
cmoved moved between b&c
dmoved moved between c&d
emoved moved between d&e
Note: If there are multiple moves, and both a move to another home and to an institution occur, the move to another home is taken into account. So, more respondents are moved to an institution than reported in this variable. If there are multiple moves to another home, the move with the largest distance is taken into account.

z014rec1 z014rec2 z014rec3 z014rec4 record id for ZMOVED in LASAz014 (to match with Z014REC)
Note: if there are more moves reported at the different waves of observation and the moves are classified equal on BMOVED, CMOVED, DMOVED or EMOVED, multiple record id's are identified. However, despite the same value on the variables bmoved, cmoved, dmoved and emoved, there might be a different moving distance (on the basis of the variable ZMOVEDIS in LASAz014) which is taken into account in identifying the record in the variables Z014REC1 through Z014REC4.

Syntax example for using these matching variables
* one wants to have the characteristics of the move over the largest distance (e.g. level of urbanisation before and after the move).
get file 'LASAz214.sav'.
select if (zmoved>0).
compute hold=1.
save /outfile 'tempz214.sav' /keep respnr z014rec1 hold /rename (z014rec1=z014rec).
match files /file 'LASAz014.sav' /file 'tempz214.sav' /by respnr z014rec.
select if (hold=1).
frequencies zmovedw zurbold zurbnew.
* one wants to analyse respondent characteristics (e.g. personal network size before and after the focal move).
save /outfile 'tempz014.sav' /keep respnr hold zmovedw.
match files /file 'tempz014.sav'
/file 'LSNa247.sav' /file 'LASAb247.sav' /file 'LASAc247.sav' /file 'LASAd247.sav' /file 'LASAe247.sav'
