USE WEIGHT VARIABLE VCF0009/VCF0009A/VCF0009B.
BUILT FROM VCF0604, VCF0605, VCF0606, VCF0608.
To construct this variable, the component vars are first recoded as
follows: VCF0604: 1=0,2=33,3=67,4=100; VCF0605: 1=0, 2=100;
VCF0606,VCF0608: 1=0,2=50,3=100. The recoded values are then
totalled and divided by the number of valid responses. The result
is then rounded.
0. Least trusting
.
100. Most trusting
999. Not scored in all of: VCF0604, VCF0605, VCF0606,
