Region of the Funding LSC Sample Code

1. The following SPSS code is provided to illustrate the Region of the Funding LSC data definition.

L25_REG

2. The following table shows the steps required to derive L25_REG

Step Condition Action/Action if true Action if false
1 If L25=2 L25_REG=NC. Go to 2.
2 If L25=3 L25_REG=NS Go to 3.
3 If L25 is in the inclusive range (60 to 110) L25_REG=EE. Go to 4.
4 If L25 is in the inclusive range (10 to 50) L25_REG=EM. Go to 5.
5 If L25 is in the inclusive range (120 to 160) L25_REG=GL. Go to 6.
6 If L25 is in the inclusive range (170 to 200) L25_REG=NE. Go to 7.
7 If L25 is in the inclusive range (210 to 250) L25_REG=NW. Go to 8.
8 If L25 is in the inclusive range (260 to 310) L25_REG=SE. Go to 9.
9 If L25 is in the inclusive range (320 to 370) L25_REG=SW. Go to 10.
10 If L25 is in the inclusive range (380 to 430) L25_REG=WM. Go to 11.
11 If L25 is in the inclusive range (440 to 470) L25_REG=YH. Go to 12.
12 If L25=490 L25_REG=NO. Go to 13.
13 If no value in L25 L25_REG=NA  

3. The following SPSS code illustrates how to derive L25_REG.

IF L25=3 L25 REG-'NS'.

IF RANGE(L25, 60, 110) L25_REG='EE'.

IF RANGE(L25, 10, 50) L25_REG='EM'.

IF RANGE(L25, 120, 160) L25_REG='GL'.

IF RANGE(L25, 170, 200) L25_REG='NE'.

IF RANGE(L25, 210, 250) L25_REG='NW'.
