Description

Definition
WSTOROTHER indicates whether the household stores drinking in some "other" manner, according to the woman respondent's answer to an open-ended question.
The meaning of "other" depends on the specific responses included for a given sample.

The information in WSTOROTHER is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").
