Label
Reason_DM
Description
New in R8. Replaces variable Reason which has been retired because reason codes for phase 1 data have been overwritten with reason code for phase 2 data. Reason of status of participant (invitation sent / appt made / finished etc). Initally only 14 reason codes existed (codes 0-13) but another 10 codes (14-23) were added after the study db was adapted to cope with data for Phase 2 of the Fenland study. As the same people are present in both phase 1 and 2 the data in this variable has been overwritten in the study db for people who have moved on to phase 2 of the study. Data management has therefore copied across the Reason code from the R7 dataset for all people in R7 (10857 people). For all vols new to R8 the data is as is in the study database.
