Explanatory notes

Each Classification Index Entry (CIE) typically corresponds to one item of a Statistical Classification (SC). Although a CIE may be associated with a Classification Item (CI) at any Level of a SC, CIEs are normally associated with items at the lowest Level. A CIE corresponds to a CI if the CI classifies the CIE with respect to the SC of which the CI is a member. CIEs typically come from responses to survey questions or are verbatim descriptions in administrative records.
