lifecourse - Quantification of Lifecourse Fluidity
Provides in built datasets and three functions. These
functions are mobility_index, nonStanTest and linkedLives. The
mobility_index function facilitates the calculation of
lifecourse fluidity, whilst the nonStanTest and the linkedLives
functions allow the user to determine the probability that the
observed sequence data was due to chance. The linkedLives
function acknowledges the fact that some individuals may have
identical sequences. The datasets available provide sequence
data on marital status(maritalData) and mobility (mydata) for a
selected group of individuals from the British Household Panel
Study (BHPS). In addition, personal and house ID's for 100
individuals are provided in a third dataset (myHouseID) from
the BHPS.
