| Source of acquisition | This dataset was transferred from the UK Data Archive at the
University of Essex on a CD-ROM which was received by NDAD on 29
Feb 2000. |
|---|
| | Top of page | Nature and content |
|---|
| Scope and content | The dataset contains details of consultations with other
professionals, including nurses, health visitors, social workers
and staff at pregnancy advisory bureaux. The questions in this part
of the survey covered the number and type of professionals
consulted, the number of consultations, and at what stage of the
pregnancy the consultations occurred. Questions were also asked
about the advice and information given, and the level of
satisfaction with the advice and treatment received. |
|---|
| Digital processing and conversion | The dataset was transferred to NDAD as a fixed length text file.
Each record was contained in one line of 80 characters. Only the
first 30 characters contained data. The converted data file has had
the trailing 50 blank characters at the end of each record deleted,
so that each record in the converted file is 30 characters long.
The data conversion was done in UNIX using the 'cut' command. |

| | Top of page | Structure |
|---|
| Logical structure and schema | The data is contained in one table. It is possible to link this table with the other data tables in
this series (CRDA/32/DS/1/1 - Main Patient Survey, and
CRDA/32/DS/2/1 - Doctor Consultations). The tables link via the key
field "Case Number". No information on the relationships between
the tables was provided in the documentation, and therefore it was
necessary for NDAD to infer the nature of the relationships by
examination of the data. The dataset comprises the following table(s): | Table number | NDAD reference | Name | Title |
|---|
| 1 | CRDA/32/DS/3/1 | Other | Other professional advice and consultations |

| | Top of page | Validation |
|---|
| Content validation | No discrepancies were found in the data. |
|---|
| Transformation validation | In the transformed data file the number of records was compared
to the expected number of records. Also the length of all records
was compared to the expected length. Then the values in the
transformed data were compared to the expected values as described
in the Code book, Other professional advice and consultations (see
the Dataset Documentation
Catalogue, reference CRDA/32/DD/6/3.) All of these checks
verified that there were no discrepancies between the original data
and the transformed data. |
