Description

Definition

HCMBJ2 indicates whether the woman reported a public fieldworker as a source for male condoms. This response category is country-specific to Benin.

Some samples in the "HCM" series include categories that can be consolidated into a single response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

HCMBJ2 is combined with HCMBJ1 (public fieldworker) and HCMBJ3 (public community health worker) in HCMPUBFW (all public fieldworkers) for the 2011 Benin sample.

Additionally, HCMBJ2 is combined with HCMBJ1 in HCMPUBFW for the 2006 Benin sample.

IPUMS-DHS users interested in using HCMBJ2 are encouraged to review HCMPUBFW for a more comprehensive response category.
