selectHouseholdData

It removes individual level variables and selects one record per household based on a household ID. The function can also be used for other hierachical structures.

Data from statistical agencies and other institutions are mostly
confidential. This package (see also Templ, Kowarik and Meindl (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v067.i04>) can be used for the generation of anonymized
(micro)data, i.e. for the creation of public- and scientific-use files.
The theoretical basis for the methods implemented can be found in Templ (2017) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-50272-4>.
Various risk estimation and anonymisation methods are included. Note that the package
includes a graphical user interface (Meindl and Templ, 2019 <doi:10.3390/a12090191>) that allows to use various methods of this
package.
