Dear Luciana,
Here is a response from Technical Specialist, Dr. Tom Pullum:
Quote:

The child files (Stata versions) for these three surveys are IAKR23FL.DTA, IAKR42 FL.DTA, and IAKR52 FL.DTA, respectively. You can definitely compare them, but there will be some differences in the variables and categories. You will need to check the categories and codes of the variables very carefully and you may need to do some recodes to make them as comparable as possible. This applies to successive surveys in any country.


Thank you!
