Description

Definition

DEATHTOHHRES2YR indicates whether any usual member of this household died during the past 2 years, "in this city/town/village or outside."

The related variable DEATHTOHHRES2YRNO reports the number of deaths to usual members of this household during the past 2 years.

The information in DEATHTOHHRES2YR is taken from the household record and applies, as a characteristic of the household, 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.
