D349
Problem: Respondents who reported weakened immune system in previous wave were being asked this wave, but
should have skipped.
Fix: Fixed preload reference in the code so these Respondents will skip being asked in current wave if they reported
having condition the previous wave.
Problem: Some cases who refused to do the Trail Making test had valid data for timing on the seconds though they
should skip the section if they refuse.
Fix: Corrected so refusals at practice and main Trail Making tests (D340, D343, D346, and D349) skip to the “any
problems” question, D351.

D358
Problem: Respondent was getting the mode of interview question (D358) in the wrong order, getting it directly after the
aid in number use question (D356) before moving on to D200.
Fix: Added some missing rules around D358 so it is always asked just before the number series.
Problem: New questions G217 and G218 had been swapped and the order was fixed in Data Model 3, but the question
text was wrong - G217 should be "help with dressing" but it said "help with walking." G218 should be "help with walking"
and said "help with dressing"
G217_
Fix: Corrected text for both G217 and G218. G217 now says "help with dressing", and G218 now says "help with
walking".

H192
J352
Problem: Some Respondents were not getting the H assist question and they should have.
Fix: Corrected the code so that all interviewer assisted interviews are asked the assist question.
Problem: Fewer Respondents seemed to get J352 than the questionnaire suggests. They should be asked of all active
plans.
J2
Fix: Corrected the code so that all active plans are asked J352.

M
M101
Problem: New Respondents who never worked for pay but said it was not because of a health condition (M100=5). were
erroneously not asked if they have any impairment or health problem that limits the kind or amount of paid work they can
do (M101).
Fix: Corrected so that these Respondents are asked M101.

N
M289_
N477
Problem: Respondents who applied for SSDI but only (M283=1) were erroneously asked about SSI (M289).
Fix: Corrected so these Respondents are not asked M289.
Problem: Respondents who live in a nursing home and have not reported moving out of that nursing home were
erroneously asked if concern about COVID-19 was a reason for moving out of the nursing home (N477).
Fix: Corrected so these Respondents are not asked N477.

P
P009
Problem: P009 – the summary variable that keeps track of whether or not the respondent’s first three answers, whatever
they may be, are all “don’t know” or “refused – was not always correctly assigning, sometimes assigning a 0 when at
least 1 of the first 3 questions had a valid value.
Fix: Corrected so P009 is assigned 0 only when all 3 of the first 3 questions asked are either DK or RF.
