Definition
For women who had symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection in the past 12 months, STIADEG14 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported seeking advice or treatment from a church health unit for this problem. This response category is country-specific to Egypt.
Some samples in the "STIAD" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.
STIADEG14 is combined with STIADEG13 (mosque health unit) in STIADPRIVMIS (all faith-based health facilities) for the 2005 and 2014 Egypt samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using STIADEG14 are encouraged to review STIADPRIVMIS for a more comprehensive response category.
