ISMF – Occupational recodes into ISKO-88

The *****_oik.sps files recode detailed occupational categories in the source data into the categories of the International Standard Classification of Occupations 1988. Note that the original occupation codes are treated as negative values, as specified by the corresponding file of occupation labels. For use in other contexts the command executing the occupation labels may have to be removed. For the use of SPSS macro variables see spss-macros.
