In the spirit of Halloween, any researchers out there care to share any data horror stories? We all have them? Losing data, lack of documentation, unworkable file formats? #spookusout

[The Academic Data Centre @UWinDataCentre]

@pdakean Oh that is painful! So sorry to hear. We would be curious what version of SPSS?

UWindsor researchers, did you know the RDC at Leddy Library can give you secure access to microdata that is increasingly linked with administrative sources? E.g. Discharge Abstracts Database (hospitalization) with the Longitudinal Immigration Database (landings & T1)? #crdcn2019

[The Academic Data Centre @UWinDataCentre]

UWindsor researchers looking at immigration & labour: New linkages coming between the Labour Force Survey and the Longitudinal Immigration Database. Great news for researchers wanting to link labour force activities with immigration categories. #crdcn2019

[The Academic Data Centre @UWinDataCentre]

Working with health public use microdata files e.g. Canadian Community Health Survey? FYI: the RDC at Leddy Library offers secure access to many more health files like the Canadian Health Measures Survey (great for bio measures) & the Nat'l Pop & Health Survey (longitudinal!)

[The Academic Data Centre @UWinDataCentre]

Great question asked at the Indigenous Services Canada presentation on the community well-being index. Was the composition of the index done in collaboration with First Nations communities. Answer: Yes. #crdcn2019 Free data access here: https://t.co/r4irc8XiTU #crdcn2019
