Description

Definition

TOILETEXCRETA indicates whether the household's toilet has visible excreta or urine, according to the observation of the interviewer.

The information in TOILETEXCRETA is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
