ULIVARR: FC`s living arrangement
Name: ULIVARR
Label: FC`s living arrangement
Text: This variable describes the type of parents/caretakers that each focal child is living with. ULIVARR uses the foster care designation variable and other household relationship data to identify whether the focal child is living with married, unmarried but cohabiting, or unmarried and not cohabiting caretakers. All of the possible combinations of caretakers are coded, although some of the categories do not occur in the data. In other cases, the type of parents/caretakers will appear to conflict with self-reported relationships. For example, a child living with a same-sex couple will be coded as living with a same sex-couple, even though the parents/caretakers may have reported themselves to be unmarried biological mother and step-father. Emancipated minors are given a value of .I, except for emancipated minors who live alone, who are coded 999.
