Description

Definition
FPKNOIMP (V304_11) indicates whether the woman knew about implants (such as Norplant) as a method for family planning. Implants were generally described as "small rods placed in their arm by a doctor, which stops them from becoming pregnant for several years."

Some samples differentiate between spontaneous and probed affirmative responses; see Comparability.
