Periods loaded: week55, week56, week57, week58, week59, week60. Version of FRMLA_DEAL11 first asked in week55: wording, reference period, answer options, or (for a checkbox) the option it names or whether the question offers a 'none of these' box differ from census_pulse:frmla_deal11. Select-all checkbox item. Code 1 = box checked; 0 = left unchecked by a respondent who checked another box in the same question (derived from Census's -99); -99 = saw the question and checked nothing (skipped). The question offers no 'none of these' box, so a respondent to whom no option applied looks like one who skipped it (-99 on every box); shares of 1 and 0 are among respondents who checked at least one box.
