Definition
ATNE1 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a public integrated health center as a source for testing for the AIDS virus. This response category is country-specific to Niger.
Some samples in the "AT" 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.
ATNE1 is combined with ATNE2 (public ambulatory treatment center) in ATPUBHC (all public health centers) for the 2012 Niger sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ATNE1 are encouraged to review ATPUBHC for a more comprehensive response category.
