Abstract

The Census Household Composition Key (CHCK) links child and parent Protected Identification Key (PIKs) using the Numident and the Person Identification Validation System. This technical note compares California birth records, which should be a virtually complete record of children born in California, to the CHCK. The purpose of this technical note is to provide estimates for child and parent data in the California birth records and CHCK for researchers interested in using these datasets.
