  1. If the number of close family members is greater than 4 standard deviations above the mean (21) and the change in number of close family members is greater than 4 standard deviations above the mean change (21) then recode to NA. This is 112 cases.

  2. If the number of close family members given is greater than 50 and the difference is NA meaning the number of close family members was not given at any other wave recode to NA.
