Definition
ATNP8 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported some other non-governmental organization as a place to be tested for the AIDS virus. The meaning of "other" must be interpreted relative to the specific categories included in a particular sample. This response category is country-specific to Nepal.
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.
ATNP8 is combined with other NGOs in the 2006, 2011, and 2016 Nepal surveys.
In the 2006 and 2011 Nepal surveys, ATNP8 is combined with ATNP3 (FPAN), ATNP4 (AMDA), ATNP5 (INF), and ATNP6 (Nepal Red Cross) in ATNGO (all NGOs).
In the 2016 Nepal survey, ATNP8 is combined with ATNP3 (FPAN) and ATNP7 (Marie Stopes) in ATNGO (all NGOs).
IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ATNP8 are encouraged to review ATNGO for a more comprehensive response category.
