With respect to the family relation variables (i.e. sibsp and parch) some relations were ignored. The following are the definitions used for sibsp and parch.
Sibling: | Brother, Sister, Stepbrother, or Stepsister of Passenger Aboard Titanic |
---|---|
Spouse: | Husband or Wife of Passenger Aboard Titanic (Mistresses and Fiances Ignored) |
Parent: | Mother or Father of Passenger Aboard Titanic |
Child: | Son, Daughter, Stepson, or Stepdaughter of Passenger Aboard Titanic |
Other family relatives excluded from this study include cousins, nephews/nieces, aunts/uncles, and in-laws. Some children travelled only with a nanny, therefore parch=0 for them. As well, some travelled with very close friends or neighbors in a village, however, the definitions do not support such relations.
