In the Cross-Section Survey of Managers, questions that asked about the proportion of employees to which a practice applied (e.g. BINVMANG) could be answered in two ways. The first was for the respondent to cite the percentage using the code frame provided (i.e. All (100%), Almost all (80-99%) etc). The second was for the respondent to cite the actual number of employees, with this value being coded into a second variable with a T suffix (in this case BINVMANT). SPSS syntax which combines the responses by recoding the T values back into the percentage code frame is provided below.
