Description

Definition
CHLHHWEIGHT is an 8-digit variable, which should be used as a weighting factor for the subset of persons in households containing children (generally age 5 to 17) who were randomly selected for questions about children's work, in the child labor module. For households not included in the child labor module, CHLHHWEIGHT is set to zero.

Note: For researchers using a flat data file (.dat), CHLHHWEIGHT contains 6 implied decimal places, and researchers should divide this variable by 1,000,000 before applying it as a weighting factor. For all other data formats, CHLHHWEIGHT has already been adjusted, and researchers do not need to make any changes before using this variable.
