"In this chapter I'm going to summarize some research about linking survey data to official government records. First, I'll be reviewing some of the rationale for linkage. What are the advantages to it? What can we do with linked survey and official government records? And then, I'm going to briefly summarize some of the linkage techniques that I'm most aware of that have been used to link survey and government records. And I'll also discuss some of the practical issues involved in those techniques. And then, I'll conclude by identifying some research opportunities that I believe deserve scholarly attention and increased funding." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
