Description

Definition

MLNYNOTMEANS indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the household does not have any mosquito bed nets because of a lack of means.

Because the information in MLNYNOTMEANS is taken from the household record, it applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
