The number of utilizing waves varies per sample. For KLS data of four survey waves was used for three cohorts of adolescents, for GFT and F&H five survey waves were used. For both HSL and al-RISCO, three survey waves were used. For more information on all datasets included in this collection, please see the readme file and the codebooks.
