Describe: age
This report lists the candidate variable for DataScheme variables of the construct age.
Exposition
This report is meant to be compiled after having executed the script
./manipulation/0-ellis-island.R, which prepares the necessary data transfer object (DTO). We begin with a brief recap of this script and the DTO it produces.
Ellis Island
All data land on Ellis Island.
The script 0-ellis-island.R is the first script in the analytic workflow. It accomplished the following:
- Reads in raw data files from the candidate studies
- Reads in raw data files from the candidate studies
- Extract, combines, and exports their metadata (specifically, variable names and labels, if provided) into
./data/shared/derived/meta-data-live.csv, which is updated every time Ellis Island script is executed.
- Extract, combines, and exports their metadata (specifically, variable names and labels, if provided) into
- Augments raw metadata with instructions for renaming and classifying variables. The instructions are provided as manually entered values in
./data/shared/meta-data-map.csv. They are used by automatic scripts in later harmonization and analysis.
- Augments raw metadata with instructions for renaming and classifying variables. The instructions are provided as manually entered values in
- Combines unit and metadata into a single DTO to serve as a starting point to all subsequent analyses.
