SEE VCF0201 FOR QUESTION TEXT
In 1968 "don't know"s were coded 50 on thermometers; groups about
which the respondent "didn't know much" were also placed at 50 degrees
during these years.
In 1974-1976, the respondent was not asked to give thermometer ratings
for individuals about which R "didn't know much" or "didn't know too
much." However, it is unclear whether such cases were coded DK or
NA: even within a single study year, "don't know much/too much" may
not have been coded consistently to one MD category.
