Definition
For children with diarrhea in the past 2 weeks, DIATRBJ2 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment from a market. This response category is country-specific to Benin.
Some samples in the "DIATR" 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.
DIATRBJ2 is combined with DIATRBJ1 (shop) in DIATRSHOP (all retail outlets) for the 2011 and 2017 Benin samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using DIATRBJ2 are encouraged to review DIATRSHOP for a more comprehensive response category.
