Scientific safeguard
Qualified assessment is authoritative; chronology remains supporting evidence.
Praxis separates source-stated method or instrument changes from automated differences in CDC/NCHS method text. The qualified harmonization assessment below is the researcher-facing conclusion; method chronology explains the underlying evidence and does not override that adjudication.
Variable-by-variable chronology
Qualified harmonization assessment and indexed evidence
Each variable first shows the current qualified assessment used by Study Builder, followed by cycle-specific source evidence and method chronology.

Qualified Praxis harmonization assessment
Compatible with harmonization · moderate confidence
No blocking method discontinuity is identified inside the selected cycle span, but one or more longitudinal changes require explicit harmonization conditions before pooling.

Praxis harmonization actions
- Apply cycle-specific eligibility rules and restrict the pooled analytic population to a defensible common target population.
- Verify merge grain, companion variables, and component-specific analytic guidance for the new file context.
- Confirm that the construct and coding are unchanged before pooling or recoding.
