Students who participated in PIRLS 2011 and prePIRLS 2011 were administered a background questionnaire with questions related to their home background, school experiences, and attitudes toward reading. The student background data files contain students' responses to these questions. They also contain students' reading achievement scores (plausible values) to facilitate analyses of relationships between student background characteristics and achievement. The student background data files also contain a number of identification variables, tracking variables, sampling and weighting variables, and derived variables that were used for producing exhibits in the international reports. These variables are described later in chapter 4 of the PIRLS 2011 User Guide.
