Description

Definition
For household members under age 5 who were potential subjects for height and weight measurement, HWCYEARMEAS (HC19) reports the year during which their height and weight were measured by DHS personnel.

The complementary variables HWCDAYMEAS (HC17) and HWCMONTHMEAS (HC18) report the day and the month, respectively, of the young household member's height and weight measurement.
