Description

Definition

SWSHRPSI indicates whether the respondent for the household survey had heard, via a "PSI vendor," of a socially marketed chemical water treatment product. The product, whose brand name was country-specific, was publicized in a Safe Water Systems public health campaign. See SWSHR for more information on this public health effort. PSI probably stands for Population Services International, a global health organization that targets various public health issues, including child survival.

The information in SWSHRPSI 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.
