This version is identical to IPUMS Version 7 except for the following fields that were edited by World Bank:
DDI ID and Study ID - adaptation version number changed to v01 as this is the initial DHS-IPUMS adaptation in World Bank catalog.
Version 7 . Documentation of Demographic Household Survey data and harmonized variables as found in IPUMS-DHS. IPUMS has distribution rights to the metadata and data. The XML documents generated by this process are viewed as a distribution of the metadata.
Fields edited for the World Bank are: DDI ID and study ID to match World Bank study naming convention, as well as DDI Document Version and Version Description to reflect changed included in version 7. Variable ID's and names were changed to add the prefix W_, C_, B_, M_, or H_ to indicate file source as Woman, Child, Birth, Man, or Household Member respectively. This was done to create unique variable IDs and names within the file. These prefixes are not found in the IPUMS-DHS system.
Original extract version date 2019-9-25. DDI metadata revised to add DOI number to stdyDscr/notes and correct assignment of variables to record types.

DHSID is available for every IPUMS-DHS sample and uniquely identifies clusters across samples. It serves as the unique linking key between IPUMS-DHS microdata and DHS cluster shapefiles.This is a 14-digit numeric variable with 0 implied decimal placesIdentifiers Variables -- TOPICSUnique sample-case PSU identifierIDHSPSU is an identifying number unique to the primary sampling unit in a given sample. This variable is a concatenation of SAMPLE (which uniquely identifies each country- and year-specific sample) and PSU (the numbered primary sampling units within a given sample).Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSUnique cross-sample sampling strataIDHSSTRATA is an identifying number unique to the sampling strata in a given sample. This variable is a concatenation of SAMPLE (which uniquely identifies each country- and year-specific sample) and STRATA (groups of geographically similar areas, from which primary sampling units are drawn).Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific respondent identifierCASEID is the unique identifier for each woman in a given sample year. Using CASEID and CLUSTERNO, analysts can link IPUMS-DHS data to the original DHS datasets to attach variables that are not currently available in IPUMS-DHS. For example, researchers can use CASEID and CLUSTERNO to link variables from the IPUMS-DHS with other variables from the Woman's Recode file to merge country-specific variables, or to the Household or Couples Recode file to attach variables that are not yet part of IPUMS-DHS.
In most samples, users can identify women who are in the same household by using the first 12 characters of CASEID (and CLUSTERNO (V001)), as this indicates a unique household identifier.
CASEID is generally created by The DHS Program using the variables CLUSTERNO (V001), HHNUM (V002), and LINENO (V003), with the last three characters indicating the respondent's line number in the household file.
For instructions on how to create links between IPUMS-DHS data and DHS source data, see the User Note on "Merging IDHS and DHS Data." [URL omitted from DDI.]CASEID is a 18-character string variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific household identifierHHID is an identifying number unique to each household in a given sample.HHID is a 15-character string variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific primary sampling unitPSU (V021) is the variable indicating the primary sampling unit or PSU. It should be used along with the variable DOMAIN (V023) to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on the variance estimates and standard errors.
The DHS Recode Manuals for Phase 2 forward describe this variable as follows:
Primary sampling unit is a number assigned to sample points to identify the primary sampling units for use in the calculation of sampling errors. This variable is usually the same as the cluster number and/or the ultimate area unit, but may differ if the sample design required a multistage selection process.
See the notes on DHS webpage "Using sample weights" [URL omitted from DDI.] on variance estimation for additional information.PSU (V021) is a 6-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific sampling strataSTRATA (V022) defines the pairings or groupings of primary sampling units used in the calculation of sampling errors when using the Taylor series expansion method.
In two-stage sampling, The DHS Program may first group small geographic areas, such as enumeration areas from the last census, into broad strata defined jointly by region and urban versus rural areas within a region. In the second stage of sampling, a subset of geographic areas (sample clusters) are selected as the sites for interviewing from within defined strata.
STRATA is not the same as DOMAIN (V023). (Domains represent statistically representative areas for which valid summary statistics can be calculated for a survey, such as provinces and national urban versus rural combined areas, as described in the survey's final report.) The DHS Program recommends using STRATA along with the variable PSU (V021) to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on the estimates of variance and standard errors.
Users are strongly encouraged to review the FAQ section provided by The DHS Program on specifying stratification and clustering here [URL omitted from DDI.], using Stata or SPSS to account for sample design.STRATA (V022) is a 5-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific domainDOMAIN (V023) defines the basic geographic units for which the sample was designed to yield representative estimates.
The DHS Recode Manual describes DOMAIN as follows:
For example, if the sample was designed to be self-weighting within region, this variable would define those regions; if the sample was designed to be self-weighting within major urban areas, other urban areas and rural areas, this variable would define the major urban, other urban and rural areas. If the sample is self-weighted at the national level, this variable is code 0.
When national estimates are desired, users should include survey design variables, including DOMAIN (V023) and PSU (V021), and the correct sample weights (e.g., PERWEIGHT (V005)) to adjust sampling errors to account for DHS' sample design.
In most countries, DOMAIN defines the stratification for the sample (generally either regional or national). However, some countries use two levels of stratification, such as region and urban/rural areas. Users should check for the correct stratification design by consulting the Final Report(s) for the sample(s) of interest (particularly the Introduction and Sample Design sections and Implementation Appendix).DOMAIN is a 5-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSHousehold number in clusterDISTRICT ________

For most samples, HHNUM and CLUSTERNO can be used to merge IPUMS-DHS data from the women's file to DHS Household Recode files, to incorporate household variables not yet available in the IPUMS-DHS. However, in some household files, HHNUM and CLUSTERNO do not uniquely identify households in the DHS Household Recode file.

According to the DHS Sampling Manual, "A cluster is the smallest geographical survey statistical unit for DHS surveys. It consists of a number of adjacent households in a geographical area. For DHS surveys, a cluster corresponds either to an [enumeration area], or a segment of a large [enumeration area]." The most recent census for a country, which divided all territory into enumeration areas to ensure full coverage of the population, often provides the sampling frame for a DHS survey.
CLUSTERNO is the variable indicating the primary sampling unit or PSU. It should be used along with the variable STRATA to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on the estimates of variance and standard errors.
See the notes on DHS webpage "Use sample weights" [URL omitted from DDI.] on variance estimation for additional information.
CLUSTERNO (V001) and HHNUM (V002) can be used to merge the women's individual recode file to the household recode file.

While the DHS Recode Manuals direct the researcher to divide the original weight variable by 1,000,000 before applying the weighting factor to the original DHS data files, it is not necessary to modify the value of PERWEIGHT before applying this weight to cases in IPUMS-DHS.
PERWEIGHT should be used to weight nearly all tabulations made using IPUMS-DHS data. Occasionally, as with the domestic violence variables, a subset of respondents are randomly selected to answer questions from a survey module, and a specialized weight such as DVWEIGHT should be used instead.
Note: The 6 implied decimal places in PERWEIGHT mean that the last six digits of the eight-digit variable are decimal digits, but there is no actual decimal in the data.PERWEIGHT is an 8-digit numeric variable with 6 implied decimal places. See the variable description for directions on the use of PERWEIGHT.Weights and subsample selection Variables -- TOPICSAll woman factor for total populationAWFACTT is a 5-digit variable (in IPUMS-DHS) with 2 implied decimal places that is used to create total population estimates for all women of childbearing age, for those samples interviewing only ever-married women. A post from DHS senior staff member Tom Pullum on the DHS Users Forum explains,
The all-woman factors are needed when you are trying to estimate something for all women, but you have to work with ever-married women because that's all you have in the sample. An example is when you want to estimate a fertility rate for all women but you only have the births and exposure for ever-married women. You have to assume that (a) never-married women have no births and (b) awfact/100 is a multiplier to inflate exposure for ever-married women to exposure for all women.
For surveys that used a sampling frame of all women of childbearing age, AWFACTT has a value of 100 (or 1.00, with two decimal places), and thus has no effect on the survey statistics when used as a multiplier. For samples that included only ever-married women, AWFACTT serves as a multiplier to create total population figures for all women of childbearing age, following the assumptions noted above.
The width of AWFACTT ranges from a low of 3 to a high of 5 in the original DHS files; see Comparability for further discussion.AWFACTT is a 5-digit numeric variable with 2 implied decimal places.

Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC minus ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )

7 OTHER (SPECIFY) _________INTDATECDC (V008A) reports the century day code for the date on which the interview took place.
Century day codes (CDC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete. They are similar to century month codes (CMC), but century day codes provide additional detail.
According to the DHS Program,
The century day code is analogous to the century month code and gives the number of days since the beginning of 1900. The century day code for a date of birth is computed in a similar manner to the century month code, using the reported day, month and year of birth, and the reported age in years for living children, as well as an imputation process for incompletely or inconsistently reported information. Note that for simplicity in the calculation of the century day code the assumption is that 1900 is a leap year, but this is also how Excel works too. This doesn't affect any calculations of age as all calculations are using a consistent base.
Age in years is then calculated by subtracting the century day code for the date of birth from the century day code for the date of interview, and dividing the result by 365.25 (allowing for a leap year every 4 years) and taking the integer part of the result to get completed years. For age in months, divide the difference between the date of interview CDC and the date of birth CDC by 30.4375 (365.25 divided by 12 months), and then take the integer part to get completed months.
For more information about the calculation of century month codes, see INTDATECMC (V008).

The contextual variables in IPUMS DHS use the month in INTSTARTCMC as the month of the survey start date. The related variable INTENDCMC reports the century month code for the last month the survey was fielded, according to the DHS Program website.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries.

For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900

AGE IN COMPLETED YEARS _____AGE (V012) reports the woman's age. DHS surveys collect information about the woman's age through questions about age at last birthday and date of birth. DHS Recode Manuals provide the following information about how the AGE variable is calculated:
Current age in completed years is calculated from the century month code of the date of birth of the respondent (V011) and the century month code of the date of interview (V008). In a few cases the age in the data file will be different from that reported by the respondent when the respondent's birthday was in the month of interview, but she had not yet had her birthday. If the respondent correctly reported her age at her last birthday (and not her age at her next birthday) then the calculated age was rounded up from the reported age, to avoid inconsistencies between the age and the century month code for the birth.1010111112121313141415151616171718181919202021212222232324242525262627272828292930303131323233333434353536363737383839394040414142424343444445454646474748484949505051515252535354545555565657575858595960606161626263636464Core demographic Variables -- TOPICSAge in 5 year groups106) How old were you at your last birthday?

DON'T KNOW YEAR 9998DOBCMC (V011) reports the century month code (CMC) for the woman's date of birth.
Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC - ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )

DON'T KNOW YEAR 9998MAR1STCMC (V509) reports the century month code (CMC) for the date of the woman's first marriage or cohabitation.
Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC - ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )

YEAR _________DOB1STKIDCMC (V211) reports the century month code (CMC) for the date of the woman's first birth.
The Guide to DHS Statistics (2003) explains the use and calculation of CMC values as follows:
Century month codes (CMC) are particularly important to check consistency of dates, to calculate intervals between events, and to impute dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. That year was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 will be:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed since January 1900 to June 2002. Based on CMC it is possible to calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]

Persons with less than secondary school education were asked to demonstrate their literacy level by reading aloud a sentence on a card and were classified as "cannot read at all," "able to read only parts of sentence," and "able to read whole sentence." As with LIT1 (V108), those with secondary or higher schooling were presumed to have attained the highest literacy level.
For Phases 1-3 of the DHS, information on literacy was collected using a different approach, by simply asking whether the person could read (LIT1).

BLIND/VISUALLY IMPAIRED 5LITBRIG serves as a bridging variable between two approaches to collecting information on literacy. Initially, respondents were asked, "Can you read a letter or newspaper easily, with difficulty, or not at all?" In many countries, persons with secondary or higher levels of schooling were presumed to "read easily," but coding criteria varied across countries.
Beginning with Phase 4 of the DHS, persons with less than secondary school education were asked to demonstrate their literacy level by reading aloud a sentence on a card and were classified as "cannot read at all," "able to read only parts of sentence," and "able to read whole sentence." As before, those with secondary or higher schooling were presumed to have attained the highest literacy level.
LITBRIG combines information from the first approach of asking about literacy (in LIT1 [V108]) and the second approach of testing literacy based on reading a sentence aloud (in LIT2 [V155]).

NEITHER STERILIZED (CONTINUE)
HE OR SHE IS STERILIZED (GO TO 813)For countries with low contraceptive prevalence, FERTPREF (V602) reports responses to the question, "Would you like to have a (another) child or would you prefer not to have any (more) children"? The standard response categories are "have another," "no more/none," "says she can't get pregnant," and "undecided or don't know."
In Phase I, FERTPREF (V602), was constructed from two questions in countries with high contraceptive prevalence (Model "A" questionnaires). Women who responded that they want another child, but when asked when they would like the next child, respond that they cannot get pregnant, are classified in the "declared infecund category," and not in the "Wants another" category.
Some samples also include the response "up to God." More detailed responses under the general category "says she can't get pregnant" are sometimes available. In IPUMS-DHS, all responses in the general category of "not at risk of pregnancy" share a common first digit of 5, while the second digit distinguishes between the specific reasons. In some countries, women who never had sexual intercourse (coded as "53" in IPUMS-DHS) were not asked the questions relating to their desire for future children.
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.99NIU (not in universe)98Missing53Never had sex52Declared infecund51Sterilized50Not at risk of pregnancy40Up to God30No more20Undecided10Have anotherGeneral family planning Variables -- TOPICSUnmet need for FP1002) HIV is the virus that can lead to AIDS.

DON'T KNOW 8UNMETNEED (V624) is a constructed variable that reports a woman's need for family planning according to whether she has an unmet need or a met need to space or to limit her future births.
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.
The following describes the constructed categories in more detail:
Unmet need for spacing includes pregnant women whose pregnancy was mistimed, postpartum amenorrheic women whose last birth was mistimed, and fecund women who are neither pregnant nor postpartum amenorrheic and who are not using any method of family planning and say they want to wait two or more years for their next birth, are undecided about the timing of the next birth, or are undecided whether to have another child.
Unmet need for limiting includes pregnant women whose pregnancy was unwanted, postpartum amenorrheic women whose last birth was unwanted, and fecund women who are neither pregnant nor postpartum amenorrheic and who are not using any method of family planning and who want no more children.
Met need for spacing includes women who are using some method of family planning and say they want to have another child, are undecided about the timing of the next birth, or are undecided whether to have another child.
Met need for limiting includes women who are using family planning and who want no more children.
Note that the specific methods (modern or traditional) are not taken into account here.
Met need describes women who have no need for contraceptive methods, either because they desire a child soon (within the next two years) or because they are menopausal or infecund.
In high contraceptive prevalence countries (Model "A" countries), pregnant and postpartum amenorrheic women whose pregnancy was the result of a contraceptive failure are not included in the category of unmet need, but they are categorized as spacing failures or limiting failures. In low contraceptive prevalence countries (Model "B" countries), no such distinction is made, since information was not collected on contraceptive failure. Infecund women are also excluded from the unmet need categories.
The "Online Guide to DHS Statistics" provides the following definitions:
Fecundity: A woman is assumed to be fecund unless she declares that she is infecund, had a hysterectomy, or is menopausic. Women who are neither pregnant nor postpartum amenorrheic but who have not menstruated for six or more months, and married women who have not used contraception in the past five years but have not had a birth and are not pregnant, are also considered infecund.
Failure to Space: This includes women who are pregnant (not due to a contraceptive failure) or are less than six months postpartum amenorrheic who say they wanted the current pregnancy later.
Failure to Limit: This includes women who are pregnant (not due to a contraceptive failure) or are less than six months postpartum amenorrheic who say that they did not want another child before they became pregnant.
Excluded from the unmet need category are women who became pregnant while using a method (these women are in need of a better method of contraception).
The infecund or menopausal category on the UNMETNEED (V624) variable contains fewer cases than the EXPOSURE1 variable, because women who are categorized as infecund or menopausal, but are currently using a contraceptive method, are recorded in the two "met need" categories in UNMETNEED.
UNMETNEED (V624) incorporates responses to the following variables:
[EXPOSURE1/V623], which reports the woman's exposure to the risk of pregnancy, defined as pregnant, postpartum amenorrheic, menopausal or infecund, and fecund.
[ V225], which reports whether a current pregnancy was wanted then, later or not at all (for women who were pregnant at the time of interview).
[KIDDESIRE/V605] ,which reports whether the woman wants more children and when she would like them.
[FPMETHNOW/V312] which reports the woman's current use of contraception.
Users are also encouraged to see details of this variable provided in the "Online Guide to DHS Statistics" (Rutstein and Rojas, 2006) [URL omitted from DDI.].99NIU (not in universe)98Missing61Desire birth in less than 2 years60No unmet need53Never had sex52Not in union, not sexually active51Infecund or menopausal50Not at risk41No sex, want to wait40Future need for FP32Limiting failure31Spacing failure30Had FP failure22Using to limit21Using to space20Now using FP12Unmet need to limit11Unmet need to space10Has unmet need for FPGeneral family planning Variables -- TOPICSUnmet need for FP (2nd def)1002) HIV is the virus that can lead to AIDS.

DON'T KNOW 8UNMETNEED2 (V626) is a constructed variable that indicates a woman's need for family planning according to whether she has an unmet need or a met need to space or to limit her future births. UNMETNEED2 is similar to UNMETNEED, but UNMETNEED2 differently categorizes women who are infecund or menopausal but are currently using a contraceptive method.
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.
The construction of UNMETNEED2 uses a definition of fecundity based on exposure status as reported in EXPOSURE2. UNMETNEED, by contrast, uses a definition of exposure status as reported in EXPOSURE1. See the descriptions of these two variables for discussion of their differences.99NIU (not in universe)98Unknown53No sex, want to wait/not married and no sex in last 30 days52Never had sex51Infecund, menopausal50Not at risk for pregnancy41Desire birth in less than 2 yrs40No unmet need32Limiting failure31Spacing failure30Family limitation failure22Using to limit21Using to space20Now using FP12Unmet need to limit11Unmet need to space10Has unmet need for FPGeneral family planning Variables -- TOPICSUnmet need for contraception (definition 3)1002) HIV is the virus that can lead to AIDS.

DON'T KNOW 8Like UNMETNEED and UNMETNEED2, UNMETNEED3 (V626A) is a constructed variable that indicates a woman's need for family planning, according to whether she has an unmet need or a met need to space or to limit her future births.
UNMETNEED3 is similar to UNMETNEED and UNMETNEED2. However, due to increased scrutiny of unmet need measures and the need for more consistent methods to collect these data, MEASURE DHS organized a Technical Expert Working Group (TEWG) to address these concerns. Broadly, the revisions agreed upon are as follows:
Exclude inconsistently collected data
Do not assume an unmet need status for women missing key data
Simplify classification of unmet need for spacing versus unmet need for limiting
Shorten the duration for which women are considered to be postpartum amenorrheic
Standardize the calculation of infecundity
Explicitly handle inconsistencies

UNDECIDED/DON'T KNOW (GO TO 812)KIDDESIRE (V605) is a constructed variable that distinguishes between women who want another child soon (in less than two years), who want another child later (in 2+ years), who want no more children, and who aren't sure (about timing or about the number of children desired).
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.
The construction of this variable has changed across phases of the DHS and varies across countries (only sometimes distinguishing between groups of women not at risk of pregnancy due to sterilization, infecundity, or virginity). To maximize comparability across samples, IPUMS-DHS employs composite coding. Women who want more children share a common first digit of 1, women not at risk of pregnancy share a common first digit of 6, and detail present in only some samples is specified in the code's second digit.99NIU (not in universe)98Unknown63Never had sex62Declared infecund61Sterilized60Not at risk of pregnancy51Up to God50Fatalistic response40Wants no more30Undecided13Wants, unsure timing12Wants after 2+ years11Wants within 2 years10Wants more childrenGeneral family planning Variables -- TOPICSWanted last child228) When you got pregnant, did you want to get pregnant at that time?

The information is collected through hypothetical questions such as, "If you could go back to the time you did not have any children and could choose exactly the number of children to have in your whole life, how many would that be?" (for women with living children) or "If you could choose exactly the number of children to have in your whole life, how many would that be?" (for women without living children).
If the woman responded with a range of values, IDEALKID reports the midpoint between those values. According to the DHS Recode Manuals, "If the midpoint is not an exact number then the number is rounded up in half the cases and rounded down for the other half." The questionnaires included space for non-numeric "other" responses, such as "Up to God."

Starting in Phase II, there are differences in the way these data are reported between Model "A" and Model "B" countries, due to the inclusion of a detailed calendar of events in the five years preceding the interview in Model "A" questionnaires. For Model "B" questionnaires, any response greater than 8 years is topcoded at "96." However, for Model "A" questionnaires, the maximum duration of use that could be recorded is the entire length of the calendar (i.e., 5 years).0000 months0011 month0022 months0033 months0044 months0055 months0066 months0077 months0088 months0099 months01010 months01111 months01212 months01313 months01414 months01515 months01616 months01717 months01818 months01919 months02020 months02121 months02222 months02323 months02424 months02525 months02626 months02727 months02828 months02929 months03030 months03131 months03232 months03333 months03434 months03535 months03636 months03737 months03838 months03939 months04040 months04141 months04242 months04343 months04444 months04545 months04646 months04747 months04848 months04949 months05050 months05151 months05252 months05353 months05454 months05555 months05656 months05757 months05858 months05959 months06060 months06161 months06262 months06363 months06464 months06565 months06666 months06767 months06868 months06969 months07070 months07171 months07272 months07373 months07474 months07575 months07676 months07777 months07878 months07979 months08080 months08181 months08282 months08383 months08484 months08585 months08686 months08787 months08888 months08989 months09090 months09191 months09292 months09393 months09494 months09595 months09696 or more months995All calendar years996Inconsistent response997Don't know998Missing999NIU (not in universe)Recent use of family planning Variables -- TOPICSFirst source for contraception for current method316) You first started using (CURRENT METHOD) in (DATE FROM 309).

Folkloric methods are the category "other" and country-specific methods (such as herbs or amulet), which vary across samples. In some cases, however, there are exceptions to this organization; see Comparability.
Additionally, while FPTYPRHY (V304A_08) and the other "FPTYP" variables report whether a specific method is considered to be modern, traditional, or folkloric method in a given sample, IPUMS-DHS users may be interested in the complementary variable FPTYPNOW (V313), which indicates whether the woman's current contraceptive method is modern, traditional, or folkloric.1Modern method2Traditional method3Folkloric method9NIU (not in universe)Type of family planning method Variables -- TOPICSType of method: WithdrawalSECTION 3.

DELDOC_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELDOC_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELDOC_02, DELDOC_03, DELDOC_04, DELDOC_05, and DELDOC_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELDOC_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For surveys including this question, information for this variable was collected on all births, up to a maximum of six, in the reference period. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then DELDOC_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1DELDOC_ALL availableMaternal delivery care, general Variables -- TOPICSDoctor gave delivery care for last birth429) Who assisted with the delivery of (NAME)?

NO 2DELFPADV_ALL indicates whether anyone in the health facility talked with the respondent about family planning after delivery.
DELFPADV_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELFPADV_01) up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELFPADV_02, DELFPADV_03, DELFPADV_04, DELFPADV_05, and DELFPADV_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELFPADV_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then DELFPADV_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1DELFPADV_ALL availableMaternal delivery care, general Variables -- TOPICSAdvised about FP before discharge (last birth)437A) Did this person talk to you about using a family planning method?

NO ONE ASSISTED YFor women who gave birth in the last five years, DELPK1_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a nurse gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Pakistan.
DELPK1_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELPK1_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELPK1_02, DELPK1_03, DELPK1_04, DELPK1_05, and DELPK1_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELPK1_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
Some samples in the "DEL" 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.
DELPK1_ALL is combined with DELPK8_ALL (midwife) for the 2017 Pakistan sample to create the standard variable DELNURM_ALL. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using DELPK1_ALL are encouraged to review DELNURM_ALL for this more comprehensive response category.1DELPK1_ALL availableMaternal delivery care, CS Variables -- TOPICSNurse gave delivery care for last birth (Pakistan)429) Who assisted with the delivery of (NAME)?

NO ONE ASSISTED YFor women who gave birth in the last five years, DELPK8_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a midwife gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Pakistan.
DELPK8_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELPK8_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELPK8_02, DELPK8_03, DELPK8_04, DELPK8_05, and DELPK8_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELPK8_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
Some samples in the "DEL" 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.
DELPK8_ALL is combined with DELPK1_ALL (nurse) for the 2017 Pakistan sample to create the standard variable DELNURM_ALL. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using DELPK8_ALL are encouraged to review DELNURM_ALL for this more comprehensive response category.1DELPK8_ALL availableMaternal delivery care, CS Variables -- TOPICSMidwife gave delivery care for last birth (Pakistan)429) Who assisted with the delivery of (NAME)?

DON'T KNOW 998For women who gave birth in a health facility in the five years preceding the survey, DELTIME_ALL (M61_x) reports the length of time the mother and child stayed at the health facility after delivery. Following DHS convention, intervals reported in hours are coded with a "1" in the first digit, intervals reported in days are coded with a "2" in the first digit, and intervals reported in weeks are coded with a "3" in the first digit.
DELTIME_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELTIME_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELTIME_02, DELTIME_03, DELTIME_04, DELTIME_05, and DELTIME_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELTIME_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For surveys including this question, information for this variable was collected on all births, up to a maximum of six, in the reference period. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then DELTIME_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.
Some surveys, specified in the Comparability section, collected this information for the last-born child only (DELTIME_01).1DELTIME_ALL availablePostpartum care Variables -- TOPICSTime spent at place of delivery (last birth)431) How long after (NAME) was delivered did you stay there?

NO 2 (GO TO 438)For women who gave birth in the 5 years before the survey and delivered their child at a health facility, PPCHECK_ALL (M62_x) indicates whether the woman received a postpartum health check before she was discharged from the facility.
PPCHECK_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (PPCHECK_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., PPCHECK_02, PPCHECK_03, PPCHECK_04, PPCHECK_05, and PPCHECK_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If PPCHECK_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For surveys including this question, information for this variable was collected on all births, up to a maximum of six, in the reference period. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then PPCHECK_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1PPCHECK_ALL availablePostpartum care Variables -- TOPICSWoman's health checked before discharge after delivery (last birth)435) I would like to talk to you about checks on your health after delivery, for example, someone asking you questions about your health or examining you.

DON'T YEAR 8 (GO TO 457)For women who gave birth in the 5 years before the survey, PNBABCK_ALL (M70_x) indicates whether the woman's baby had a postnatal check within 2 months of delivery.
For most surveys, this information on postnatal checks for the child is collected for only the last-born child (PNBABCK_01). For a minority of samples, noted in the Comparability section, the information was collected for all births within the 3 to 5 years before the survey.
To accommodate those surveys that collected this information on multiple births, PNBABCK_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (PNBABCK_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., PNBABCK_02, PNBABCK_03, PNBABCK_04, PNBABCK_05, and PNBABCK_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If PNBABCK_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables--when available--are included in a researcher's data file.
In some cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, in a survey that collected this information for more than the most recent birth, no woman had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then PNBABCK_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1PNBABCK_ALL availablePostpartum care Variables -- TOPICSBaby postnatal check within 2 months (last birth)445) I would like to talk to you about checks on (NAME)'s health after you left (FACILITY IN 430).

DON'T KNOW 98For women who gave birth in the last three to five years and saw someone for antenatal care (ANCARE_ALL), ANVISMO_ALL (M13_x) reports the timing of the first antenatal visit, in months from the start of the pregnancy. Women who did not see anyone for antenatal care during the pregnancy are coded 0.
ANVISMO_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANVISMO_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANVISMO_02, ANVISMO_03, ANVISMO_04, ANVISMO_05, and ANVISMO_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If ANVISMO_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For many surveys, particularly those taken after 2000, this information was collected for only the most recent birth (ANVISMO_01) and, in some cases, the second-most-recent birth (ANVISMO_02). Surveys in which the data were collected for only the most recent birth(s) are noted in the comparability section.
For other surveys, information for this variable was collected on all births, up to a maximum of six, in the reference period; exceptions in which data were collected on only the most recent birth(s) are noted in the comparability section. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then ANVISMO_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1ANVISMO_ALL availableMaternal antenatal care, general Variables -- TOPICSTiming of first antenatal visit for the pregnancy: Months (last birth)411) How many months pregnant were you when you first received antenatal care for this pregnancy?

ANIROND_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANIROND_01) up to, potentially, the sixth most recent birth (i.e., ANIROND_02, ANIROND_03, ANIROND_04, ANIROND_05, and ANIROND_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If ANIROND_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For most surveys, this information on days of taking iron supplements during pregnancy was collected for only the most recent birth (ANIROND_01). Surveys in which the data were collected for additional births are noted in the comparability section.1ANIROND_ALL availableAntenatal iron supplements Variables -- TOPICSDays antenatal iron supplement taken (last birth)421) During the whole pregnancy, for how many days did you take the tablets or syrup?
IF ANSWER IS NOT NUMERIC, PROBE FOR APPROXIMATE NUMBER OF DAYS.

PREGNANCY HISTORY NUMBER _____BIDX_ALL reports the index number of the child in the mother's birth history, from 1 to n, where the nth birth is the mother's first birth, and 1 is the most recently born child. Up to 20 births could be reported by a woman. After saying "Now I would like to record the names of all your births, whether still alive or not, starting with the first one you had," the interviewer recorded each child's name in turn on successively numbered lines printed in the "Reproduction" section of the individual woman's questionnaire.
When women are the unit of analysis, all of their children's characteristics are reported using the index number of the birth history. For example, variables ending with "_01" always refer to the most recent birth. This means that BIDX_01 will always equal "1," BIDX_02 will always equal "2," and so on.
Combined with CASEID, BIDX_ALL uniquely identifies births within a sample. Combined with IDHSPID, BIDX_ALL uniquely identifies births across samples. Using these variables, data users can link IPUMS-DHS data to original DHS child-level (KR) and birth-level (BR) datasets.
BIDX_ALL consists of a set of twenty separate variables, covering the most recent birth (BIDX_01) up to the twentieth-most-recent birth (BIDX_20) for a female respondent of childbearing age. If BIDX_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
Information for this variable was collected on all births for a woman, up to a maximum of twenty. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to twenty births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 19 or 20 births). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 20 births and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then BIDX_20 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1BIDX_ALL availableGeneral maternal and infant health Variables -- TOPICSBirth index history number (last-born child)403) PREGNANCY HISTORY NUMBER FROM 212 IN PREGNANCY HISTORY.

MULTIPLE 2KIDTWIN_ALL (B0_x) reports whether the child is a twin (or born in a multiple birth) or is a singleton (single) birth.
KIDTWIN_ALL consists of a set of twenty separate variables, covering the most recent birth (KIDTWIN_01) up to the twentieth-most-recent birth (KIDTWIN_20) for a female respondent of childbearing age. If KIDTWIN_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
Information for this variable was collected on all births for a woman, up to a maximum of twenty. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to twenty births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 19 or 20 births). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 20 births and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then KIDTWIN_20 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1KIDTWIN_ALL availableGeneral maternal and infant health Variables -- TOPICSChild is a twin or single birth (last-born child)212A) Think back to your first pregnancy.

YEAR _________KIDBIRTHDAY_ALL (B17_x) reports the day of the month of the child's birth, according to the Gregorian calendar.
KIDBIRTHDAY_ALL consists of a set of twenty separate variables, covering the most recent birth (KIDBIRTHDAY_01) up to the twentieth-most-recent birth (KIDBIRTHDAY_20) for a female respondent of childbearing age.

YEAR _________KIDDOBCDC_ALL (B18_X) reports the century day code for the child's date of birth.
Century day codes (CDC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete. They are similar to century month codes (CMC), but century day codes provide additional detail.
According to the DHS Program's "Calculating the Age of Children More Precisely" documentation,
The century day code is analogous to the century month code and gives the number of days since the beginning of 1900. The century day code for a date of birth is computed in a similar manner to the century month code, using the reported day, month and year of birth, and the reported age in years for living children, as well as an imputation process for incompletely or inconsistently reported information. Note that for simplicity in the calculation of the century day code the assumption is that 1900 is a leap year, but this is also how Excel works too. This doesn - t affect any calculations of age as all calculations are using a consistent base.
Age in years is then calculated by subtracting the century day code for the date of birth from the century day code for the date of interview, and dividing the result by 365.25 (allowing for a leap year every 4 years) and taking the integer part of the result to get completed years. For age in months, divide the difference between the date of interview CDC and the date of birth CDC by 30.4375 (365.25 divided by 12 months), and then take the integer part to get completed months.
For more information about the calculation of century month codes, see INTDATECMC (V008).
The century day codes reported in KIDDOBCDC_ALL are calculated using the Gregorian calendar.1KIDDOBCDC_ALL availableGeneral maternal and infant health Variables -- TOPICSChild's day of birth (CDC) (last-born child)215) On what day, month, and year was (NAME) born? PROBE: When is his/her birthday?

NO 2 (GO TO 220)KIDALIVE _ALL (B5_x) indicates whether each birth reported by a woman of childbearing age is alive.
KIDALIVE_ALL consists of a set of twenty separate variables, covering the most recent birth (KIDALIVE_01) up to the twentieth-most-recent birth (KIDALIVE_20) for a female respondent of childbearing age. If KIDALIVE_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For surveys including this question, information for this variable was collected on all births for a woman, up to a maximum of twenty. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to twenty births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 19 or 20 births). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 20 births and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then KIDALIVE_20 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1KIDALIVE_ALL availableGeneral maternal and infant health Variables -- TOPICSChild is alive (most recent birth)216) Is (NAME) still alive?

(GO TO 221)KIDAGEDIEDIMP _ALL (B7_x) reports the age of the deceased child at death in months (including imputed ages).
KIDAGEDIEDIMP_ALL consists of a set of twenty separate variables, covering the most recent birth (KIDAGEDIEDIMP_01) up to the twentieth-most-recent birth (KIDAGEDIEDIMP_20) for a female respondent of childbearing age. If KIDAGEDIEDIMP_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
Information for this variable was collected on all births for a woman, up to a maximum of twenty. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to twenty births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 19 or 20 births). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 20 births and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then KIDAGEDIEDIMP_20 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1KIDAGEDIEDIMP_ALL availableGeneral maternal and infant health Variables -- TOPICSChild's age at death in months (including imputed) (last birth)220) IF DEAD: How old was (NAME) when s/he died?

KIDCURAGEMO_ALL consists of a set of twenty separate variables, covering the most recent birth (KIDCURAGEMO_01) up to the twentieth-most-recent birth (KIDCURAGEMO_20) for a female respondent of childbearing age. If KIDCURAGEMO_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
Information for this variable was collected on all births for a woman, up to a maximum of twenty births. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to twenty births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 19 or 20 births). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 20 births and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then KIDCURAGEMO_20 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1KIDCURAGEMO_ALL availableGeneral maternal and infant health Variables -- TOPICSCurrent age of child in months (last-born child)215) On what day, month, and year was (NAME) born?

____BIRTHINTPREMO_ALL (B11_x) reports the preceding birth interval, or the length of time in months until the child was born, after the mother's previous birth (i.e., after the child's next oldest sibling).
Because BIRTHINTPREMO_ALL relates to the child's older sibling, first-born children and twins of first-born children are not included in this variable set.
BIRTHINTPREMO_ALL consists of a set of twenty separate variables, covering the most recent birth (BIRTHINTPREMO_01) up to the twentieth-most-recent birth (BIRTHINTPREMO_20) for a female respondent of childbearing age. If BIRTHINTPREMO_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
Information for this variable was collected on all births for a woman, up to a maximum of twenty. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to twenty births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 19 or 20 births). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 20 births and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then BIRTHINTPREMO_20 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1BIRTHINTPREMO_ALL availableGeneral maternal and infant health Variables -- TOPICSLength of preceeding birth interval, in months (last-born child)212) PREGNANCY HISTORY NUMBER

____BIRTHINTPOSTMO_ALL (B12_x) reports the succeeding birth interval, or the length of time in months, after the child was born, until the mother's next birth (i.e., before the child's next youngest sibling).
Because BIRTHINTPOSTMO_ALL relates to the child's younger sibling, last-born children and twins of last-born children are not included in this variable set.
BIRTHINTPOSTMO_ALL consists of a set of nineteen separate variables, covering the second-most-recent birth (BIRTHINTPOSTMO_02) up to the twentieth-most-recent birth (BIRTHINTPOSTMO_20) for a female respondent of childbearing age. If BIRTHINTPOSTMO_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
Information for this variable was collected on all but the most recent birth for a woman, up to a maximum of her twentieth birth. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to the twentieth births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had a 19th or 20th birth).

YES 1 (ADD PREGNANCY)
NO 2 (NEXT PREGNANCY)OTHBIRTHININT_ALL (B15_x) indicates whether there were any other live births in the interval between this birth and the previously reported birth. The survey form included the question, "Were there any other live births between (NAME OF PREVIOUS BIRTH) and (NAME), including any children who died?"
For DHS Phase III only, OTHBIRTHININT_ALL (B15_x) is limited to "Births for which the interval between the birth and the previously reported birth was four or more years (B14 =1)," according to the Recode Manuals. For later Phases, the universe is all second- and higher-order births.
The DHS Recode Manuals include the following explanatory note about this variable:
Variables B14 and B15 are questions used in the interview to try and ascertain if the respondent had omitted any live births while reporting her birth history. The birth history may have been modified during the interviewing process, and the responses may not now correspond to the interval between the birth and the preceding birth recorded in this section. The data have been included to help indicate cases where the respondent may have omitted live births while originally reporting the birth history. The omitted births should be included in this final version of the birth history.
OTHBIRTHININT_ALL consists of a set of twenty separate variables, covering the most recent birth (OTHBIRTHININT_01) up to the twentieth-most-recent birth (OTHBIRTHININT_20) for a female respondent of childbearing age. If OTHBIRTHININT_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.

DON'T KNOW 99998For women who gave birth in the last three to five years, BIRTHWTREF_ALL (M19A_x) indicates whether the child's reported weight at birth (BIRTHWT_ALL) was recorded from a health card or based on the mother's recall. Children who were not weighed are coded 9996.
BIRTHWTREF_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (BIRTHWTREF_01) up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., BIRTHWTREF_02, BIRTHWTREF_03, BIRTHWTREF_04, BIRTHWTREF_05, and BIRTHWTREF_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If BIRTHWTREF_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
This information was collected for all births within the reference period preceding the survey. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then BIRTHWTREF_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1BIRTHWTREF_ALL availableGeneral maternal and infant health Variables -- TOPICSSource of birthweight info (health card or recall) (last birth)428) How much did (NAME) weigh?

NO MORE/NONE 2For women who gave birth in the three to five years before the survey and who wanted to become pregnant later, CHDESIREL_ALL (M11_x) reports the length of time they would have wanted to wait. Following DHS convention, intervals reported in weeks are coded with a "1" in the first digit, while intervals reported in years are coded with a "2" in the first digit.
CHDESIREL_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (CHDESIREL_01) up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., CHDESIREREL_02, CHDESIREL_03, CHDESIREREL_04, CHDESIREL_05, and CHDESIREL_06) during the reference period prior to the survey.

DON'T KNOW 98PPAMHMO_ALL reports the duration, in months, of postpartum amenorrhea after the birth of the child, for women who gave birth in the last three to five years. Women whose period had not returned at the time of interview were excluded from PPAMHMO_ALL, but women who were still amenorrheic were included in calculations for the similar variable PPAMHMOC_ALL.
The maximum period allowed during the data editing (by the survey administrators) was the interval between the date of birth of the child and the date of conception of the following child (with birth date minus nine months used for the date of conception) or the date of interview if there was no following birth.
PPAMHMO_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (PPAMHMO_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., PPAMHMO_02, PPAMHMO_03, PPAMHMO_04, PPAMHMO_05, and PPAMHMO_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If PPAMHMO_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For surveys including this question, information for this variable was collected on all births, up to a maximum of six, in the reference period. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then PPAMHMO_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1PPAMHMO_ALL availableGeneral maternal and infant health Variables -- TOPICSDuration of postpartum amenorrhea in months (last births)460) For how many months after the birth of (NAME) did you not have a period?

DON'T KNOW 98PPAMHMOC_ALL (M9_x) reports the duration, in months, of postpartum amenorrhea after the birth of the child, for women who gave birth in the last three to five years. Women whose period had not returned before the following birth or prior to the interview were included in PPAMHMOC_ALL. By contrast, only women whose menses had resumed were included in the similar variable PPAMHMO_ALL.
PPAMHMOC_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (PPAMHMOC_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., PPAMHMOC_02, PPAMHMOC_03, PPAMHMOC_04, PPAMHMOC_05, and PPAMHMOC_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If PPAMHMOC_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
The maximum period allowed during the data editing (by the survey administrators) was the interval between the date of birth of the child and the date of conception of the following child (with birth date minus nine months used for the date of conception) or the date of interview if there was no following birth.
For DHS Phase II forward, inconsistent durations based on the original reporting of the duration of amenorrhea were recoded to "Inconsistent" (96 in IPUMS-DHS). In cases where the duration was one month longer than the interval, the duration was shortened by one month, consistent with Phase I. For Model "A" countries in Phase II only, if the duration of postpartum amenorrhea extended into the following pregnancy in the calendar, the duration was shortened to the start of the following pregnancy.1PPAMHMOC_ALL availableGeneral maternal and infant health Variables -- TOPICSMonths of postpartum amenorrhea (including women still amenorrheic) (last birth)460) For how many months after the birth of (NAME) did you not have a period?

Cases exceeding this duration are coded with one of the flag codes on PPABFLAG_ALL and are coded as "Inconsistent" in PPABMOC_ALL.
PPABMOC_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (PPABMOC_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., PPABMOC_02, PPABMOC_03, PPABMOC_04, PPABMOC_05, and PPABMOC_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If PPABMOC_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For surveys including this question, information for this variable was collected on all births, up to a maximum of six, in the reference period. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then PPABMOC_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1PPABMOC_ALL availableGeneral maternal and infant health Variables -- TOPICSMonths of postpartum abstinence (including women still abstaining) (last birth)441) Now I want to talk to you about what happened after you left the facility.

NO 2 (GO TO 445)For women who gave birth in the last three to five years, PPABMOC_01 (M9_1) reports their calculated months of postpartum abstinence (after the last birth), including the duration for women who were still abstaining at the time of the interview. The similar variable PPABMO_01 also reports the calculated months of postpartum abstinence but excludes women who were still abstaining when interviewed.
According to the DHS Recode Manuals, the maximum period allowed during the data editing was the interval between the date of birth of the child and the date of conception of the following child (with date of birth minus nine months used for the date of conception) or until the date of interview if there was no following birth.

If FEDANY24H_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For most surveys including this question, information for this variable was collected on the youngest surviving child under age 2. If the respondent's last-born child had died but the second-to-last child was still alive, FEDANY24H_02 would indicate whether the respondent's second-to-last child was given solid, semi-solid, or soft foods only if the last-born child had died. Data were hypothetically collected on up to the sixth-most-recent birth, but if no women in the survey had 6 births and the 5 most recent had died, FEDANY24H_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.

BRSFEDBOT_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (BRSFEDBOT_01) up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., BRSFEDBOT_02, BRSFEDBOT_03, BRSFEDBOT_04, BRSFEDBOT_05, and BRSFEDBOT_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If BRSFEDBOT_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
The information in BRSFEDBOT_ALL was collected for all births within the reference period preceding the survey. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then BRSFEDBOT_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.

NO 2For women who gave birth in the last three to five years and whose last-born child is still alive, BOTTLE24H (V415) indicates whether the last-born child drank anything from a bottle with a nipple during the previous day and night.
When women are the unit of analysis, IPUMS-DHS users may also use BRSFEDBOT_01 (M38_01), which also indicates whether the woman gave her last-born child anything from a bottle with a nipple during the previous day and night.
When children are the unit of analysis, BOTTLE24H describes a characteristic of the mother, which causes all young children of the mother to be coded the same way. If the mother reported that she fed her last-born child with a bottle with a nipple during the previous day or night, all of her children in the data are coded as "yes," including any children who have died or who live elsewhere.
When children are the unit of analysis, a positive response in BOTTLE24H thus does not necessarily indicate that a particular child was actually fed with a bottle with a nipple during the previous day or night. IPUMS-DHS users should instead employ, when available, the variable BRSFEDBOT (M38) to determine whether the specific child in question actually drank anything from a bottle with a nipple during the previous day and night.0No1Yes7Don't know8Missing9NIU (not in universe)Breastfeeding and infant feeding Variables -- TOPICSWoman currently breastfeeding any child469) Are you still breastfeeding (NAME)?

NO 2BFEEDANYNOW (V404) indicates whether the woman is currently breastfeeding. If no child was born in the last three to five years, the respondent is assumed to not be breastfeeding.
When children or births are the unit of analysis, this variable describes a characteristic of the mother, which causes all children of the mother to be coded the same way.
This variable has some variation in how current breastfeeding is determined. See Comparability.0No1Yes9NIU (not in universe)Breastfeeding and infant feeding Variables -- TOPICSDuration of breastfeeding in months (including still breastfed)469) Are you still breastfeeding (NAME)?

NO 2For women who gave birth in the last three to five years, BRSFEDMO_ALL (M5_x) reports the calculated months of breastfeeding for a birth, including cases where 1) the woman was still breastfeeding at the time of the interview or 2) the child had been breastfed until its death. Cases in these two categories were excluded from the related variable BRSFEDUR_ALL on the duration of breastfeeding.
For DHS Phase II forward, inconsistent durations based on the original report of the duration of breastfeeding were coded as "Inconsistent." In cases where the reported duration was one month longer than the relevant interval, duration was shortened by one month. If the duration of breastfeeding exceeded the child's age at death, the duration of breastfeeding was changed to the age at death.
BRSFEDMO_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (BRSFEDMO_01) up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., BRSFEDMO_02, BRSFEDMO_03, BRSFEDMO_04, BRSFEDMO_05, and BRSFEDMO_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If BRSFEDMO_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
The information in BRSFEDMO_ALL was collected for all births within the reference period preceding the survey. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then BRSFEDMO_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1BRSFEDMO_ALL availableBreastfeeding and infant feeding Variables -- TOPICSDuration of breastfeeding in months (including still breastfed) (last birth)469) Are you still breastfeeding (NAME)?

Following DHS convention, intervals reported in hours are coded with a "1" in the first digit, and intervals reported in days are coded with a "2" in the first digit.
BRSFEDST_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (BRSFEDST_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., BRSFEDST_02, BRSFEDST_03, BRSFEDST_04, BRSFEDST_05, and BRSFEDST_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If BRSFEDST_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For surveys including this question, information for this variable was collected on all births, up to a maximum of six, in the reference period. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years).

HOURS 1 ____
DAYS 2 ____For women who gave birth in the last three to five years and breastfed their last-born child, BFEEDST (V426) reports the length of time between the birth and when the woman first breastfed her last-born child. Following DHS convention, intervals reported in hours are coded with a "1" in the first digit, and intervals reported in days are coded with a "2" in the first digit.
When women are the unit of analysis, IPUMS-DHS users may also use BRSFEDST_01 (M34_1), which also reports the length of time between the birth and when the woman first breastfed her child (for the last birth).
When children are the unit of analysis, BFEEDST describes a characteristic of the mother, which causes all young children of the mother to be coded the same way. Thus, a response of a certain number of hours or days in BFEEDST does not necessarily indicate that a particular child whose record is being analyzed was first breastfed after that amount of time. IPUMS-DHS users should instead employ, when available, the variable BRSFEDST (M34) to determine the length of time between the specific child's birth and when that child was first breastfed.000Immediately100Within first hour1011 hour1022 hours1033 hours1044 hours1055 hours1066 hours1077 hours1088 hours1099 hours11010 hours11111 hours11212 hours11313 hours11414 hours11515 hours11616 hours11717 hours11818 hours11919 hours12020 hours12121 hours12222 hours12323 hours12424 hours12525 hours12626 hours12727 hours12828 hours12929 hours13030 hours13131 hours13232 hours13333 hours13434 hours13535 hours13636 hours13737 hours13838 hours13939 hours14040 hours14141 hours14242 hours14343 hours14444 hours14545 hours14646 hours14747 hours14848 hours14949 hours15050 hours15151 hours15252 hours15353 hours15454 hours15555 hours15656 hours15757 hours15858 hours15959 hours16060 hours16161 hours16262 hours16363 hours16464 hours16565 hours16666 hours16767 hours16868 hours16969 hours17070 hours17171 hours17272 hours17373 hours17474 hours17575 hours17676 hours17777 hours17878 hours17979 hours18080 hours18181 hours18282 hours18383 hours18484 hours18585 hours18686 hours18787 hours18888 hours18989 hours19090 hours199Hours: Number missing200Within first day2011 day2022 days2033 days2044 days2055 days2066 days2077 days2088 days2099 days21010 days21111 days21212 days21313 days21414 days21515 days21616 days21717 days21818 days21919 days22020 days22121 days22222 days22323 days22424 days22525 days22626 days22727 days22828 days22929 days23030 days23131 days23232 days23333 days23434 days23535 days23636 days23737 days23838 days23939 days24040 days24141 days24242 days24343 days24444 days24545 days24646 days24747 days24848 days24949 days25050 days25151 days25252 days25353 days25454 days25555 days25656 days25757 days25858 days25959 days26060 days26161 days26262 days26363 days26464 days26565 days26666 days26767 days26868 days26969 days27070 days27171 days27272 days27373 days27474 days27575 days27676 days27777 days27878 days27979 days28080 days28181 days28282 days28383 days28484 days28585 days28686 days28787 days28888 days28989 days29090 days299Days: Number missing997Don't know998Missing999NIU (not in universe)Breastfeeding and infant feeding Variables -- TOPICSReason did not breastfeed469A) Why did you (not breastfeed) stop breastfeeding (NAME)?

OTHER (SPECIFY) ________ 6For women who gave birth in the last three to five years and never breastfed the child, WHYNOBRFD_ALL (M20_x) reports why they did not breastfeed.
WHYNOBRFD_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (WHYNOBRFD_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., WHYNOBRFD_02, WHYNOBRFD_03, WHYNOBRFD_04, WHYNOBRFD_05, and WHYNOBRFD_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If WHYNOBRFD_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For surveys including this question, information for this variable was collected on all births, up to a maximum of six, in the reference period. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then WHYNOBRFD_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.1WHYNOBRFD_ALL availableBreastfeeding and infant feeding Variables -- TOPICSReason did not breastfeed (last birth)469A) Why did you (not breastfeed) stop breastfeeding (NAME)?

An anthropometry measure expressed in reference standard deviation units is also known as a Z-score. BIOFHTASDRM values are reported in units equal to 100 times the Z-score, to preserve two decimal places without requiring the use of a decimal point. Dividing BIOFHTASDRM by 100 will yield the height-for-age Z-score (HAZ) value.
The reference standard contains data for children up to age 18. For all women age 18 and over, the value of 215 months (17 years, 11 months) is used, based on the assumption that women are fully grown by age 18.
HEIGHTFEM (V438) reports the respondent's length or height, as measured by DHS personnel.
The complementary DHS variable BIOFHTAPCT (V439) reports the respondent's height-for-age percentile within the same reference population used in BIOFHTASDRM. The complementary DHS variable BIOFHTAPCTRM (V441) reports the respondent's height-for-age as a percentage of the median of the same reference population.

This variable uses a DHS reference standard.
An anthropometry measure expressed in reference standard deviation units is also known as a Z-score. BIOFWTHTSDRM values are reported in units equal to 100 times the Z-score, to preserve two decimal places without requiring the use of a decimal point. Dividing BIOFWTHTSDRM by 100 will yield the height-for-age Z-score (HAZ) value.
The complementary DHS variable BIOFWTHTPCTDHS (V442) reports weight-for-height percentiles within the same reference population. Unlike z-scores, percentiles do not allow comparison across age and sex and cannot assess longitudinal change in growth status; users are advised to consult anthropometry literature for further discussion.9995Flagged cases9998Missing9999NIU (not in universe)Female anthropometry Variables -- TOPICSBody Mass Index (BMI) for respondents to the women's surveyBIOFBMI (V445) reports the female respondent's body mass index (BMI). BMI is an anthropometric measure relating weight to height, equal to body weight (kilograms) divided by height (meters) squared (W/(H^2)). Also known as the Quetelet Index, BMI is a measure of acute nutritional status, based on the Fogarty Metropolitan Life tables of ideal weight for height.
The DHS Guide to Statistics offers the following guidelines for interpreting BMI scores for women age 15-49:
Severely thin: less than 16.0
Moderately thin: 16.0 to 16.9
Mildly thin: 17.0 to 18.4
Normal: 18.5 to 24.9
Overweight: 25.0 to 29.9
Obese: 30.0 or more
The original height and weight values used to calculate BMI are also included in IPUMS-DHS. WEIGHTFEM (V437) reports the respondent's weight in kilograms, as measured by DHS personnel; HEIGHTFEM (V438) reports the person's length or height in centimeters, as measured by DHS personnel.
For an alternate measure of female nutrition, IPUMS-DHS users may also be interested in BIOFROHRER (V446), which reports the respondent's Rohrer's Index. This measure is equal to body weight (kilograms) divided by height (meters) cubed (W/(H^3)).9995Flagged cases9998Missing9999NIU (not in universe)Female anthropometry Variables -- TOPICSRohrer's index (mass/height cubed) (for respondents to female survey)BIOFROHRER (V446) reports the respondent's Rohrer's Index. Rohrer's Index is an anthropometric measure relating weight to height, equal to body weight (kilograms) divided by height (meters) cubed (W/(H^3)). Rohrer's Index is a measure of acute nutritional status, and may be used as an alternative to Body Mass Index.
The original height and weight values used to calculate Rohrer's Index are also included in IPUMS-DHS. WEIGHTFEM (V437) reports the respondent's weight in kilograms as measured by DHS personnel; HEIGHTFEM (V438) reports their length or height in centimeters as measured by DHS personnel.

Using CASEID and CLUSTERNO, analysts can link IPUMS-DHS data to the original DHS datasets to attach variables that are not currently available in IPUMS-DHS. For example, researchers can use CASEID and CLUSTERNO to link variables from the IPUMS-DHS with other variables from the Woman's Recode file to merge country-specific variables, or to the Household or Couples Recode file to attach variables that are not yet part of IPUMS-DHS.
In most samples, users can identify women who are in the same household by using the first 12 characters of CASEID (and CLUSTERNO (V001)), as this indicates a unique household identifier.
CASEID is generally created by The DHS Program using the variables CLUSTERNO (V001), HHNUM (V002), and LINENO (V003), with the last three characters indicating the respondent's line number in the household file.

It should be used along with the variable DOMAIN (V023) to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on the variance estimates and standard errors.
The DHS Recode Manuals for Phase 2 forward describe this variable as follows:
Primary sampling unit is a number assigned to sample points to identify the primary sampling units for use in the calculation of sampling errors. This variable is usually the same as the cluster number and/or the ultimate area unit, but may differ if the sample design required a multistage selection process.
See the notes on DHS webpage "Using sample weights" [URL omitted from DDI.] on variance estimation for additional information.PSU (V021) is a 6-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific sampling strataSTRATA (V022) defines the pairings or groupings of primary sampling units used in the calculation of sampling errors when using the Taylor series expansion method.
In two-stage sampling, The DHS Program may first group small geographic areas, such as enumeration areas from the last census, into broad strata defined jointly by region and urban versus rural areas within a region. In the second stage of sampling, a subset of geographic areas (sample clusters) are selected as the sites for interviewing from within defined strata.
STRATA is not the same as DOMAIN (V023). (Domains represent statistically representative areas for which valid summary statistics can be calculated for a survey, such as provinces and national urban versus rural combined areas, as described in the survey's final report.) The DHS Program recommends using STRATA along with the variable PSU (V021) to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on the estimates of variance and standard errors.
Users are strongly encouraged to review the FAQ section provided by The DHS Program on specifying stratification and clustering here [URL omitted from DDI.], using Stata or SPSS to account for sample design.STRATA (V022) is a 5-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific domainDOMAIN (V023) defines the basic geographic units for which the sample was designed to yield representative estimates.
The DHS Recode Manual describes DOMAIN as follows:
For example, if the sample was designed to be self-weighting within region, this variable would define those regions; if the sample was designed to be self-weighting within major urban areas, other urban areas and rural areas, this variable would define the major urban, other urban and rural areas. If the sample is self-weighted at the national level, this variable is code 0.
When national estimates are desired, users should include survey design variables, including DOMAIN (V023) and PSU (V021), and the correct sample weights (e.g., PERWEIGHT (V005)) to adjust sampling errors to account for DHS' sample design.
In most countries, DOMAIN defines the stratification for the sample (generally either regional or national). However, some countries use two levels of stratification, such as region and urban/rural areas. Users should check for the correct stratification design by consulting the Final Report(s) for the sample(s) of interest (particularly the Introduction and Sample Design sections and Implementation Appendix).DOMAIN is a 5-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSHousehold number in clusterDISTRICT ________

To identify unique households in most samples, researchers must use HHNUM with CLUSTERNO (V001).
For most samples, HHNUM and CLUSTERNO can be used to merge IPUMS-DHS data from the women's file to DHS Household Recode files, to incorporate household variables not yet available in the IPUMS-DHS. However, in some household files, HHNUM and CLUSTERNO do not uniquely identify households in the DHS Household Recode file.

According to the DHS Sampling Manual, "A cluster is the smallest geographical survey statistical unit for DHS surveys. It consists of a number of adjacent households in a geographical area. For DHS surveys, a cluster corresponds either to an [enumeration area], or a segment of a large [enumeration area]." The most recent census for a country, which divided all territory into enumeration areas to ensure full coverage of the population, often provides the sampling frame for a DHS survey.
CLUSTERNO is the variable indicating the primary sampling unit or PSU. It should be used along with the variable STRATA to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on the estimates of variance and standard errors.
See the notes on DHS webpage "Use sample weights" [URL omitted from DDI.] on variance estimation for additional information.
CLUSTERNO (V001) and HHNUM (V002) can be used to merge the women's individual recode file to the household recode file.

After asking "Please give me the names of the persons who usually live in your household or are staying with you now, starting with the head of the household," the interviewer recorded each name in turn on successively numbered lines printed on the household survey form.00Husband not in the household011022033044055066077088099101011111212131314141515161617171818191920202121222223232424252526262727282829293030313132323333343435353636373738383939404041414242434344444545464647474848494950505151525253535454555598Missing99NIU (not in universe)Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSBirth history index number403) PREGNANCY HISTORY NUMBER FROM 212 IN PREGNANCY HISTORY.
PREGNANCY HISTORY NUMBER _____BIDX reports the index number of the child in the mother's birth history, from 1 to n, where the nth birth is the mother's first birth, and 1 is the most recently born child. Up to 20 births could be reported by a woman. After asking "Now I would like to record the names of all your births, whether still alive or not, with the first one you had," the interviewer recorded each child's name in turn on successively numbered lines printed in the "Reproduction" section of the individual woman's questionnaire.
Combined with CASEID, BIDX uniquely identifies children within a sample. Combined with IDHSPID, BIDX uniquely identifies children across samples. Using these variables, data users can link IPUMS-DHS data to original DHS child-level and birth-level datasets.07708809920201919181817171616151514141313121211111010066055044033022011Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample weight for personsPERWEIGHT (V005) is an 8-digit variable with 6 implied decimal places, which should be used as a weighting factor to produce representative numbers accurately describing the surveyed population.
While the DHS Recode Manuals direct the researcher to divide the original weight variable by 1,000,000 before applying the weighting factor to the original DHS data files, it is not necessary to modify the value of PERWEIGHT before applying this weight to cases in IPUMS-DHS.
PERWEIGHT should be used to weight nearly all tabulations made using IPUMS-DHS data. Occasionally, as with the domestic violence variables, a subset of respondents are randomly selected to answer questions from a survey module, and a specialized weight such as DVWEIGHT should be used instead.
Note: The 6 implied decimal places in PERWEIGHT mean that the last six digits of the eight-digit variable are decimal digits, but there is no actual decimal in the data.PERWEIGHT is an 8-digit numeric variable with 6 implied decimal places. See the variable description for directions on the use of PERWEIGHT.Weights and subsample selection Variables -- TOPICSAll woman factor for total populationAWFACTT is a 5-digit variable (in IPUMS-DHS) with 2 implied decimal places that is used to create total population estimates for all women of childbearing age, for those samples interviewing only ever-married women. A post from DHS senior staff member Tom Pullum on the DHS Users Forum explains,
The all-woman factors are needed when you are trying to estimate something for all women, but you have to work with ever-married women because that's all you have in the sample. An example is when you want to estimate a fertility rate for all women but you only have the births and exposure for ever-married women. You have to assume that (a) never-married women have no births and (b) awfact/100 is a multiplier to inflate exposure for ever-married women to exposure for all women.
For surveys that used a sampling frame of all women of childbearing age, AWFACTT has a value of 100 (or 1.00, with two decimal places), and thus has no effect on the survey statistics when used as a multiplier. For samples that included only ever-married women, AWFACTT serves as a multiplier to create total population figures for all women of childbearing age, following the assumptions noted above.
The width of AWFACTT ranges from a low of 3 to a high of 5 in the original DHS files; see Comparability for further discussion.AWFACTT is a 5-digit numeric variable with 2 implied decimal places. See the variable description for directions on the use of AWFACTT.Weights and subsample selection Variables -- TOPICSHousehold selected for men's/husband's survey (individual-level)MENSELHH (HV027) indicates whether the respondent's household was selected for the men's or husband's survey.

Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC minus ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )

7 OTHER (SPECIFY) _________INTDATECDC (V008A) reports the century day code for the date on which the interview took place.
Century day codes (CDC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete. They are similar to century month codes (CMC), but century day codes provide additional detail.
According to the DHS Program,
The century day code is analogous to the century month code and gives the number of days since the beginning of 1900. The century day code for a date of birth is computed in a similar manner to the century month code, using the reported day, month and year of birth, and the reported age in years for living children, as well as an imputation process for incompletely or inconsistently reported information. Note that for simplicity in the calculation of the century day code the assumption is that 1900 is a leap year, but this is also how Excel works too. This doesn't affect any calculations of age as all calculations are using a consistent base.
Age in years is then calculated by subtracting the century day code for the date of birth from the century day code for the date of interview, and dividing the result by 365.25 (allowing for a leap year every 4 years) and taking the integer part of the result to get completed years. For age in months, divide the difference between the date of interview CDC and the date of birth CDC by 30.4375 (365.25 divided by 12 months), and then take the integer part to get completed months.
For more information about the calculation of century month codes, see INTDATECMC (V008).

The contextual variables in IPUMS DHS use the month in INTSTARTCMC as the month of the survey start date. The related variable INTENDCMC reports the century month code for the last month the survey was fielded, according to the DHS Program website.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries.

AGE IN COMPLETED YEARS _____AGE (V012) reports the woman's age. DHS surveys collect information about the woman's age through questions about age at last birthday and date of birth. DHS Recode Manuals provide the following information about how the AGE variable is calculated:
Current age in completed years is calculated from the century month code of the date of birth of the respondent (V011) and the century month code of the date of interview (V008). In a few cases the age in the data file will be different from that reported by the respondent when the respondent's birthday was in the month of interview, but she had not yet had her birthday. If the respondent correctly reported her age at her last birthday (and not her age at her next birthday) then the calculated age was rounded up from the reported age, to avoid inconsistencies between the age and the century month code for the birth.1010111112121313141415151616171718181919202021212222232324242525262627272828292930303131323233333434353536363737383839394040414142424343444445454646474748484949505051515252535354545555565657575858595960606161626263636464Core demographic Variables -- TOPICSAge in 5 year groups106) How old were you at your last birthday?

DON'T KNOW YEAR 9998DOBCMC (V011) reports the century month code (CMC) for the woman's date of birth.
Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC - ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )
The information above is based on "Online Guide to DHS Statistics" (Rutstein and Rojas, 2006) [URL omitted from DDI.].DOBCMC (V011) is a 4-digit variable.Core demographic Variables -- TOPICSInformation given on respondent's date of birth106) How old were you at your last birthday?

DON'T KNOW YEAR 9998MAR1STCMC (V509) reports the century month code (CMC) for the date of the woman's first marriage or cohabitation.
Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC - ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )

YEAR _________DOB1STKIDCMC (V211) reports the century month code (CMC) for the date of the woman's first birth.
The Guide to DHS Statistics (2003) explains the use and calculation of CMC values as follows:
Century month codes (CMC) are particularly important to check consistency of dates, to calculate intervals between events, and to impute dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. That year was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 will be:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed since January 1900 to June 2002. Based on CMC it is possible to calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]

Persons with less than secondary school education were asked to demonstrate their literacy level by reading aloud a sentence on a card and were classified as "cannot read at all," "able to read only parts of sentence," and "able to read whole sentence." As with LIT1 (V108), those with secondary or higher schooling were presumed to have attained the highest literacy level.
For Phases 1-3 of the DHS, information on literacy was collected using a different approach, by simply asking whether the person could read (LIT1).

BLIND/VISUALLY IMPAIRED 5LITBRIG serves as a bridging variable between two approaches to collecting information on literacy. Initially, respondents were asked, "Can you read a letter or newspaper easily, with difficulty, or not at all?" In many countries, persons with secondary or higher levels of schooling were presumed to "read easily," but coding criteria varied across countries.
Beginning with Phase 4 of the DHS, persons with less than secondary school education were asked to demonstrate their literacy level by reading aloud a sentence on a card and were classified as "cannot read at all," "able to read only parts of sentence," and "able to read whole sentence." As before, those with secondary or higher schooling were presumed to have attained the highest literacy level.
LITBRIG combines information from the first approach of asking about literacy (in LIT1 [V108]) and the second approach of testing literacy based on reading a sentence aloud (in LIT2 [V155]).

HE OR SHE IS STERILIZED (GO TO 813)For countries with low contraceptive prevalence, FERTPREF (V602) reports responses to the question, "Would you like to have a (another) child or would you prefer not to have any (more) children"? The standard response categories are "have another," "no more/none," "says she can't get pregnant," and "undecided or don't know."
In Phase I, FERTPREF (V602), was constructed from two questions in countries with high contraceptive prevalence (Model "A" questionnaires). Women who responded that they want another child, but when asked when they would like the next child, respond that they cannot get pregnant, are classified in the "declared infecund category," and not in the "Wants another" category.
Some samples also include the response "up to God." More detailed responses under the general category "says she can't get pregnant" are sometimes available. In IPUMS-DHS, all responses in the general category of "not at risk of pregnancy" share a common first digit of 5, while the second digit distinguishes between the specific reasons. In some countries, women who never had sexual intercourse (coded as "53" in IPUMS-DHS) were not asked the questions relating to their desire for future children.

DON'T KNOW 8UNMETNEED (V624) is a constructed variable that reports a woman's need for family planning according to whether she has an unmet need or a met need to space or to limit her future births.
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.
The following describes the constructed categories in more detail:
Unmet need for spacing includes pregnant women whose pregnancy was mistimed, postpartum amenorrheic women whose last birth was mistimed, and fecund women who are neither pregnant nor postpartum amenorrheic and who are not using any method of family planning and say they want to wait two or more years for their next birth, are undecided about the timing of the next birth, or are undecided whether to have another child.
Unmet need for limiting includes pregnant women whose pregnancy was unwanted, postpartum amenorrheic women whose last birth was unwanted, and fecund women who are neither pregnant nor postpartum amenorrheic and who are not using any method of family planning and who want no more children.
Met need for spacing includes women who are using some method of family planning and say they want to have another child, are undecided about the timing of the next birth, or are undecided whether to have another child.
Met need for limiting includes women who are using family planning and who want no more children.
Note that the specific methods (modern or traditional) are not taken into account here.
Met need describes women who have no need for contraceptive methods, either because they desire a child soon (within the next two years) or because they are menopausal or infecund.
In high contraceptive prevalence countries (Model "A" countries), pregnant and postpartum amenorrheic women whose pregnancy was the result of a contraceptive failure are not included in the category of unmet need, but they are categorized as spacing failures or limiting failures. In low contraceptive prevalence countries (Model "B" countries), no such distinction is made, since information was not collected on contraceptive failure. Infecund women are also excluded from the unmet need categories.
The "Online Guide to DHS Statistics" provides the following definitions:
Fecundity: A woman is assumed to be fecund unless she declares that she is infecund, had a hysterectomy, or is menopausic. Women who are neither pregnant nor postpartum amenorrheic but who have not menstruated for six or more months, and married women who have not used contraception in the past five years but have not had a birth and are not pregnant, are also considered infecund.
Failure to Space: This includes women who are pregnant (not due to a contraceptive failure) or are less than six months postpartum amenorrheic who say they wanted the current pregnancy later.
Failure to Limit: This includes women who are pregnant (not due to a contraceptive failure) or are less than six months postpartum amenorrheic who say that they did not want another child before they became pregnant.
Excluded from the unmet need category are women who became pregnant while using a method (these women are in need of a better method of contraception).
The infecund or menopausal category on the UNMETNEED (V624) variable contains fewer cases than the EXPOSURE1 variable, because women who are categorized as infecund or menopausal, but are currently using a contraceptive method, are recorded in the two "met need" categories in UNMETNEED.
UNMETNEED (V624) incorporates responses to the following variables:
[EXPOSURE1/V623], which reports the woman's exposure to the risk of pregnancy, defined as pregnant, postpartum amenorrheic, menopausal or infecund, and fecund.
[ V225], which reports whether a current pregnancy was wanted then, later or not at all (for women who were pregnant at the time of interview).
[KIDDESIRE/V605] ,which reports whether the woman wants more children and when she would like them.
[FPMETHNOW/V312] which reports the woman's current use of contraception.
Users are also encouraged to see details of this variable provided in the "Online Guide to DHS Statistics" (Rutstein and Rojas, 2006) [URL omitted from DDI.].99NIU (not in universe)98Missing61Desire birth in less than 2 years60No unmet need53Never had sex52Not in union, not sexually active51Infecund or menopausal50Not at risk41No sex, want to wait40Future need for FP32Limiting failure31Spacing failure30Had FP failure22Using to limit21Using to space20Now using FP12Unmet need to limit11Unmet need to space10Has unmet need for FPGeneral family planning Variables -- TOPICSUnmet need for FP (2nd def)1002) HIV is the virus that can lead to AIDS.

DON'T KNOW 8UNMETNEED2 (V626) is a constructed variable that indicates a woman's need for family planning according to whether she has an unmet need or a met need to space or to limit her future births. UNMETNEED2 is similar to UNMETNEED, but UNMETNEED2 differently categorizes women who are infecund or menopausal but are currently using a contraceptive method.
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.
The construction of UNMETNEED2 uses a definition of fecundity based on exposure status as reported in EXPOSURE2. UNMETNEED, by contrast, uses a definition of exposure status as reported in EXPOSURE1. See the descriptions of these two variables for discussion of their differences.99NIU (not in universe)98Unknown53No sex, want to wait/not married and no sex in last 30 days52Never had sex51Infecund, menopausal50Not at risk for pregnancy41Desire birth in less than 2 yrs40No unmet need32Limiting failure31Spacing failure30Family limitation failure22Using to limit21Using to space20Now using FP12Unmet need to limit11Unmet need to space10Has unmet need for FPGeneral family planning Variables -- TOPICSUnmet need for contraception (definition 3)1002) HIV is the virus that can lead to AIDS.

DON'T KNOW 8Like UNMETNEED and UNMETNEED2, UNMETNEED3 (V626A) is a constructed variable that indicates a woman's need for family planning, according to whether she has an unmet need or a met need to space or to limit her future births.
UNMETNEED3 is similar to UNMETNEED and UNMETNEED2. However, due to increased scrutiny of unmet need measures and the need for more consistent methods to collect these data, MEASURE DHS organized a Technical Expert Working Group (TEWG) to address these concerns. Broadly, the revisions agreed upon are as follows:
Exclude inconsistently collected data
Do not assume an unmet need status for women missing key data
Simplify classification of unmet need for spacing versus unmet need for limiting
Shorten the duration for which women are considered to be postpartum amenorrheic
Standardize the calculation of infecundity
Explicitly handle inconsistencies

UNDECIDED/DON'T KNOW (GO TO 812)KIDDESIRE (V605) is a constructed variable that distinguishes between women who want another child soon (in less than two years), who want another child later (in 2+ years), who want no more children, and who aren't sure (about timing or about the number of children desired).
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.
The construction of this variable has changed across phases of the DHS and varies across countries (only sometimes distinguishing between groups of women not at risk of pregnancy due to sterilization, infecundity, or virginity). To maximize comparability across samples, IPUMS-DHS employs composite coding. Women who want more children share a common first digit of 1, women not at risk of pregnancy share a common first digit of 6, and detail present in only some samples is specified in the code's second digit.99NIU (not in universe)98Unknown63Never had sex62Declared infecund61Sterilized60Not at risk of pregnancy51Up to God50Fatalistic response40Wants no more30Undecided13Wants, unsure timing12Wants after 2+ years11Wants within 2 years10Wants more childrenGeneral family planning Variables -- TOPICSWanted last child228) When you got pregnant, did you want to get pregnant at that time?

OTHER (SPECIFY) _________ 96 (GO TO 815)IDEALKID (V613) reports the ideal total number of children the woman would have liked to have in her whole life, regardless of her actual childbearing. The information is collected through hypothetical questions such as, "If you could go back to the time you did not have any children and could choose exactly the number of children to have in your whole life, how many would that be?" (for women with living children) or "If you could choose exactly the number of children to have in your whole life, how many would that be?" (for women without living children).
If the woman responded with a range of values, IDEALKID reports the midpoint between those values. According to the DHS Recode Manuals, "If the midpoint is not an exact number then the number is rounded up in half the cases and rounded down for the other half." The questionnaires included space for non-numeric "other" responses, such as "Up to God."
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.98Missing97Don't know66Number she has currently65Depends on husband64As many as possible63Never thought about it62Any number/Fatalistic61Up to God/As Allah wills60Non-numeric response5050494948484747464645454444434342424141404039393838373736363535343423232222212120201919181817171616151514141313121211111010099088077066055044033022011000333332323131303029292828272726262525242467As many as can care for68Doesn't want children99NIU (not in universe)General family planning Variables -- TOPICSIdeal number of children (grouped)813) CHECK 216:

NO YFPTYPTRAD (V304A_10) reports whether the unspecified "other traditional or folkloric" methods are considered to be a modern method, a traditional method, or a folkloric method of family planning in a given sample. The meaning of "other" must be interpreted relative to the specific family planning methods included in a particular sample.
In the DHS, generally modern methods are the Pill, IUD, injections, diaphragm, condom, female sterilization, male sterilization, implants, female condom, foam/jelly, lactational amenorrhea, and emergency contraception. Traditional methods are periodic abstinence (rhythm), withdrawal, and abstinence. Folkloric methods are the category "other" and country-specific methods (such as herbs or amulet), which vary across samples.
Additionally, while FPTYPTRAD and the other "FPTYP" variables report whether a specific method is considered to be modern, traditional, or folkloric method in a given sample, IPUMS-DHS users may be interested in the complementary variable FPTYPNOW (V313), which indicates whether the woman's current contraceptive method is modern, traditional, or folkloric.1Modern method2Traditional method3Folkloric methodType of family planning method Variables -- TOPICSSource of family planning for non-users: Does not know a sourceFor women who are not currently using a method of contraception, FPNONDK (V3A00Y) indicates whether they did not know of any source when asked an open-ended question about where family planning can be obtained.0No, knows at least one source1Yes, knows no source8Missing9NIU (not in universe)Known source for non-users, general Variables -- TOPICSSource of family planning for non-users: Knows any sourceFor women who are not currently using a method of contraception, FPNONANY (V3A00Z) indicates whether they knew any source when asked an open-ended question about where family planning can be obtained.0No, knows no source1Yes, knows at least one source8Missing9NIU (not in universe)Known source for non-users, general Variables -- TOPICSHeard of AIDSSECTION 10.

NO 2For women who gave birth in the last three to five years and whose last-born child is still alive, BOTTLE24H (V415) indicates whether the last-born child drank anything from a bottle with a nipple during the previous day and night.
When women are the unit of analysis, IPUMS-DHS users may also use BRSFEDBOT_01 (M38_01), which also indicates whether the woman gave her last-born child anything from a bottle with a nipple during the previous day and night.
When children are the unit of analysis, BOTTLE24H describes a characteristic of the mother, which causes all young children of the mother to be coded the same way. If the mother reported that she fed her last-born child with a bottle with a nipple during the previous day or night, all of her children in the data are coded as "yes," including any children who have died or who live elsewhere.
When children are the unit of analysis, a positive response in BOTTLE24H thus does not necessarily indicate that a particular child was actually fed with a bottle with a nipple during the previous day or night. IPUMS-DHS users should instead employ, when available, the variable BRSFEDBOT (M38) to determine whether the specific child in question actually drank anything from a bottle with a nipple during the previous day and night.0No1Yes7Don't know8Missing9NIU (not in universe)Breastfeeding and infant feeding Variables -- TOPICSWoman currently breastfeeding any child469) Are you still breastfeeding (NAME)?

NO 2BFEEDANYNOW (V404) indicates whether the woman is currently breastfeeding. If no child was born in the last three to five years, the respondent is assumed to not be breastfeeding.
When children or births are the unit of analysis, this variable describes a characteristic of the mother, which causes all children of the mother to be coded the same way.
This variable has some variation in how current breastfeeding is determined. See Comparability.0No1Yes9NIU (not in universe)Breastfeeding and infant feeding Variables -- TOPICSWhen mother first put last-born child to breast466) How long after birth did you first put (NAME) on the breast?

HOURS 1 ____
DAYS 2 ____For women who gave birth in the last three to five years and breastfed their last-born child, BFEEDST (V426) reports the length of time between the birth and when the woman first breastfed her last-born child. Following DHS convention, intervals reported in hours are coded with a "1" in the first digit, and intervals reported in days are coded with a "2" in the first digit.
When women are the unit of analysis, IPUMS-DHS users may also use BRSFEDST_01 (M34_1), which also reports the length of time between the birth and when the woman first breastfed her child (for the last birth).
When children are the unit of analysis, BFEEDST describes a characteristic of the mother, which causes all young children of the mother to be coded the same way. Thus, a response of a certain number of hours or days in BFEEDST does not necessarily indicate that a particular child whose record is being analyzed was first breastfed after that amount of time. IPUMS-DHS users should instead employ, when available, the variable BRSFEDST (M34) to determine the length of time between the specific child's birth and when that child was first breastfed.000Immediately100Within first hour1011 hour1022 hours1033 hours1044 hours1055 hours1066 hours1077 hours1088 hours1099 hours11010 hours11111 hours11212 hours11313 hours11414 hours11515 hours11616 hours11717 hours11818 hours11919 hours12020 hours12121 hours12222 hours12323 hours12424 hours12525 hours12626 hours12727 hours12828 hours12929 hours13030 hours13131 hours13232 hours13333 hours13434 hours13535 hours13636 hours13737 hours13838 hours13939 hours14040 hours14141 hours14242 hours14343 hours14444 hours14545 hours14646 hours14747 hours14848 hours14949 hours15050 hours15151 hours15252 hours15353 hours15454 hours15555 hours15656 hours15757 hours15858 hours15959 hours16060 hours16161 hours16262 hours16363 hours16464 hours16565 hours16666 hours16767 hours16868 hours16969 hours17070 hours17171 hours17272 hours17373 hours17474 hours17575 hours17676 hours17777 hours17878 hours17979 hours18080 hours18181 hours18282 hours18383 hours18484 hours18585 hours18686 hours18787 hours18888 hours18989 hours19090 hours199Hours: Number missing200Within first day2011 day2022 days2033 days2044 days2055 days2066 days2077 days2088 days2099 days21010 days21111 days21212 days21313 days21414 days21515 days21616 days21717 days21818 days21919 days22020 days22121 days22222 days22323 days22424 days22525 days22626 days22727 days22828 days22929 days23030 days23131 days23232 days23333 days23434 days23535 days23636 days23737 days23838 days23939 days24040 days24141 days24242 days24343 days24444 days24545 days24646 days24747 days24848 days24949 days25050 days25151 days25252 days25353 days25454 days25555 days25656 days25757 days25858 days25959 days26060 days26161 days26262 days26363 days26464 days26565 days26666 days26767 days26868 days26969 days27070 days27171 days27272 days27373 days27474 days27575 days27676 days27777 days27878 days27979 days28080 days28181 days28282 days28383 days28484 days28585 days28686 days28787 days28888 days28989 days29090 days299Days: Number missing997Don't know998Missing999NIU (not in universe)Breastfeeding and infant feeding Variables -- TOPICSHeard of ORS for diarrhea treatmentDIATRORSHEARD (V416) indicates whether the woman ever heard of using an oral rehydration solution (ORS) to treat diarrhea.

BMI is an anthropometric measure relating weight to height, equal to body weight (kilograms) divided by height (meters) squared (W/(H^2)). Also known as the Quetelet Index, BMI is a measure of acute nutritional status, based on the Fogarty Metropolitan Life tables of ideal weight for height.
The DHS Guide to Statistics offers the following guidelines for interpreting BMI scores for women age 15-49:
Severely thin: less than 16.0
Moderately thin: 16.0 to 16.9
Mildly thin: 17.0 to 18.4
Normal: 18.5 to 24.9
Overweight: 25.0 to 29.9
Obese: 30.0 or more
The original height and weight values used to calculate BMI are also included in IPUMS-DHS. WEIGHTFEM (V437) reports the respondent's weight in kilograms, as measured by DHS personnel; HEIGHTFEM (V438) reports the person's length or height in centimeters, as measured by DHS personnel.
For an alternate measure of female nutrition, IPUMS-DHS users may also be interested in BIOFROHRER (V446), which reports the respondent's Rohrer's Index.

YEAR _________KIDDOBCDC (B18) reports the century day code for the child's date of birth.
Century day codes (CDC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete. Century day codes are conceptually similar to century month codes (CMC), but century day codes provide additional detail.
According to the DHS Program's "Calculating the Age of Children More Precisely" documentation,
The century day code is analogous to the century month code and gives the number of days since the beginning of 1900. The century day code for a date of birth is computed in a similar manner to the century month code, using the reported day, month and year of birth, and the reported age in years for living children, as well as an imputation process for incompletely or inconsistently reported information. Note that for simplicity in the calculation of the century day code the assumption is that 1900 is a leap year, but this is also how Excel works too. This doesn't affect any calculations of age as all calculations are using a consistent base.
Age in years is then calculated by subtracting the century day code for the date of birth from the century day code for the date of interview, and dividing the result by 365.25 (allowing for a leap year every 4 years) and taking the integer part of the result to get completed years. For age in months, divide the difference between the date of interview CDC and the date of birth CDC by 30.4375 (365.25 divided by 12 months), and then take the integer part to get completed months.
For more information about the calculation of century month codes, see INTDATECMC (V008).
The century day codes reported in KIDDOBCDC are calculated using the Gregorian calendar.Child demography core Variables -- TOPICSChild's birth order number403) PREGNANCY HISTORY NUMBER FROM 212 IN PREGNANCY HISTORY.

It serves as the unique linking key between IPUMS-DHS microdata and DHS cluster shapefiles.This is a 14-digit numeric variable with 0 implied decimal placesIdentifiers Variables -- TOPICSUnique sample-case PSU identifierIDHSPSU is an identifying number unique to the primary sampling unit in a given sample. This variable is a concatenation of SAMPLE (which uniquely identifies each country- and year-specific sample) and PSU (the numbered primary sampling units within a given sample).Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSUnique cross-sample sampling strataIDHSSTRATA is an identifying number unique to the sampling strata in a given sample. This variable is a concatenation of SAMPLE (which uniquely identifies each country- and year-specific sample) and STRATA (groups of geographically similar areas, from which primary sampling units are drawn).Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific respondent identifierCASEID is the unique identifier for each woman in a given sample year. Using CASEID and CLUSTERNO, analysts can link IPUMS-DHS data to the original DHS datasets to attach variables that are not currently available in IPUMS-DHS. For example, researchers can use CASEID and CLUSTERNO to link variables from the IPUMS-DHS with other variables from the Woman's Recode file to merge country-specific variables, or to the Household or Couples Recode file to attach variables that are not yet part of IPUMS-DHS.
In most samples, users can identify women who are in the same household by using the first 12 characters of CASEID (and CLUSTERNO (V001)), as this indicates a unique household identifier.
CASEID is generally created by The DHS Program using the variables CLUSTERNO (V001), HHNUM (V002), and LINENO (V003), with the last three characters indicating the respondent's line number in the household file.
For instructions on how to create links between IPUMS-DHS data and DHS source data, see the User Note on "Merging IDHS and DHS Data." [URL omitted from DDI.]CASEID is a 18-character string variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific household identifierHHID is an identifying number unique to each household in a given sample.HHID is a 15-character string variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific primary sampling unitPSU (V021) is the variable indicating the primary sampling unit or PSU. It should be used along with the variable DOMAIN (V023) to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on the variance estimates and standard errors.
The DHS Recode Manuals for Phase 2 forward describe this variable as follows:
Primary sampling unit is a number assigned to sample points to identify the primary sampling units for use in the calculation of sampling errors. This variable is usually the same as the cluster number and/or the ultimate area unit, but may differ if the sample design required a multistage selection process.
See the notes on DHS webpage "Using sample weights" [URL omitted from DDI.] on variance estimation for additional information.PSU (V021) is a 6-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific sampling strataSTRATA (V022) defines the pairings or groupings of primary sampling units used in the calculation of sampling errors when using the Taylor series expansion method.
In two-stage sampling, The DHS Program may first group small geographic areas, such as enumeration areas from the last census, into broad strata defined jointly by region and urban versus rural areas within a region. In the second stage of sampling, a subset of geographic areas (sample clusters) are selected as the sites for interviewing from within defined strata.
STRATA is not the same as DOMAIN (V023). (Domains represent statistically representative areas for which valid summary statistics can be calculated for a survey, such as provinces and national urban versus rural combined areas, as described in the survey's final report.) The DHS Program recommends using STRATA along with the variable PSU (V021) to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on the estimates of variance and standard errors.
Users are strongly encouraged to review the FAQ section provided by The DHS Program on specifying stratification and clustering here [URL omitted from DDI.], using Stata or SPSS to account for sample design.STRATA (V022) is a 5-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific domainDOMAIN (V023) defines the basic geographic units for which the sample was designed to yield representative estimates.
The DHS Recode Manual describes DOMAIN as follows:
For example, if the sample was designed to be self-weighting within region, this variable would define those regions; if the sample was designed to be self-weighting within major urban areas, other urban areas and rural areas, this variable would define the major urban, other urban and rural areas. If the sample is self-weighted at the national level, this variable is code 0.
When national estimates are desired, users should include survey design variables, including DOMAIN (V023) and PSU (V021), and the correct sample weights (e.g., PERWEIGHT (V005)) to adjust sampling errors to account for DHS' sample design.
In most countries, DOMAIN defines the stratification for the sample (generally either regional or national). However, some countries use two levels of stratification, such as region and urban/rural areas. Users should check for the correct stratification design by consulting the Final Report(s) for the sample(s) of interest (particularly the Introduction and Sample Design sections and Implementation Appendix).DOMAIN is a 5-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSHousehold number in clusterDISTRICT ________

This number reported in KIDHIDX is typically equal to BIDX, the index number of the child in the mother's birth history.112233445566Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample weight for personsPERWEIGHT (V005) is an 8-digit variable with 6 implied decimal places, which should be used as a weighting factor to produce representative numbers accurately describing the surveyed population.
While the DHS Recode Manuals direct the researcher to divide the original weight variable by 1,000,000 before applying the weighting factor to the original DHS data files, it is not necessary to modify the value of PERWEIGHT before applying this weight to cases in IPUMS-DHS.
PERWEIGHT should be used to weight nearly all tabulations made using IPUMS-DHS data. Occasionally, as with the domestic violence variables, a subset of respondents are randomly selected to answer questions from a survey module, and a specialized weight such as DVWEIGHT should be used instead.
Note: The 6 implied decimal places in PERWEIGHT mean that the last six digits of the eight-digit variable are decimal digits, but there is no actual decimal in the data.PERWEIGHT is an 8-digit numeric variable with 6 implied decimal places. See the variable description for directions on the use of PERWEIGHT.Weights and subsample selection Variables -- TOPICSAll woman factor for total populationAWFACTT is a 5-digit variable (in IPUMS-DHS) with 2 implied decimal places that is used to create total population estimates for all women of childbearing age, for those samples interviewing only ever-married women. A post from DHS senior staff member Tom Pullum on the DHS Users Forum explains,
The all-woman factors are needed when you are trying to estimate something for all women, but you have to work with ever-married women because that's all you have in the sample. An example is when you want to estimate a fertility rate for all women but you only have the births and exposure for ever-married women. You have to assume that (a) never-married women have no births and (b) awfact/100 is a multiplier to inflate exposure for ever-married women to exposure for all women.
For surveys that used a sampling frame of all women of childbearing age, AWFACTT has a value of 100 (or 1.00, with two decimal places), and thus has no effect on the survey statistics when used as a multiplier. For samples that included only ever-married women, AWFACTT serves as a multiplier to create total population figures for all women of childbearing age, following the assumptions noted above.
The width of AWFACTT ranges from a low of 3 to a high of 5 in the original DHS files; see Comparability for further discussion.AWFACTT is a 5-digit numeric variable with 2 implied decimal places.

Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC minus ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )

7 OTHER (SPECIFY) _________INTDATECDC (V008A) reports the century day code for the date on which the interview took place.
Century day codes (CDC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete. They are similar to century month codes (CMC), but century day codes provide additional detail.
According to the DHS Program,
The century day code is analogous to the century month code and gives the number of days since the beginning of 1900. The century day code for a date of birth is computed in a similar manner to the century month code, using the reported day, month and year of birth, and the reported age in years for living children, as well as an imputation process for incompletely or inconsistently reported information. Note that for simplicity in the calculation of the century day code the assumption is that 1900 is a leap year, but this is also how Excel works too. This doesn't affect any calculations of age as all calculations are using a consistent base.
Age in years is then calculated by subtracting the century day code for the date of birth from the century day code for the date of interview, and dividing the result by 365.25 (allowing for a leap year every 4 years) and taking the integer part of the result to get completed years. For age in months, divide the difference between the date of interview CDC and the date of birth CDC by 30.4375 (365.25 divided by 12 months), and then take the integer part to get completed months.
For more information about the calculation of century month codes, see INTDATECMC (V008).
The century day codes reported in INTDATECDC are calculated using the Gregorian calculator.INTDATECDC (V008A) is a 5-digit numeric variable.Survey dates Variables -- TOPICSCentury month code (CMC) for start of surveyINTSTARTCMC reports the century month code (CMC) for the first month the survey was fielded, according to the DHS Program website.
The contextual variables in IPUMS DHS use the month in INTSTARTCMC as the month of the survey start date. The related variable INTENDCMC reports the century month code for the last month the survey was fielded, according to the DHS Program website.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]

The related variable INTSTARTCMC reports the century month code for the first month the survey was fielded, according to the DHS Program website. The contextual variables in IPUMS DHS use the month in INTSTARTCMC as the month of the survey start date.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC - ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )

AGE IN COMPLETED YEARS _____AGE (V012) reports the woman's age. DHS surveys collect information about the woman's age through questions about age at last birthday and date of birth. DHS Recode Manuals provide the following information about how the AGE variable is calculated:
Current age in completed years is calculated from the century month code of the date of birth of the respondent (V011) and the century month code of the date of interview (V008). In a few cases the age in the data file will be different from that reported by the respondent when the respondent's birthday was in the month of interview, but she had not yet had her birthday. If the respondent correctly reported her age at her last birthday (and not her age at her next birthday) then the calculated age was rounded up from the reported age, to avoid inconsistencies between the age and the century month code for the birth.1010111112121313141415151616171718181919202021212222232324242525262627272828292930303131323233333434353536363737383839394040414142424343444445454646474748484949505051515252535354545555565657575858595960606161626263636464Core demographic Variables -- TOPICSAge in 5 year groups106) How old were you at your last birthday?

Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC - ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )

DON'T KNOW YEAR 9998MAR1STCMC (V509) reports the century month code (CMC) for the date of the woman's first marriage or cohabitation.
Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC - ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )

YEAR _________DOB1STKIDCMC (V211) reports the century month code (CMC) for the date of the woman's first birth.
The Guide to DHS Statistics (2003) explains the use and calculation of CMC values as follows:
Century month codes (CMC) are particularly important to check consistency of dates, to calculate intervals between events, and to impute dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. That year was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 will be:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed since January 1900 to June 2002. Based on CMC it is possible to calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]

Persons with less than secondary school education were asked to demonstrate their literacy level by reading aloud a sentence on a card and were classified as "cannot read at all," "able to read only parts of sentence," and "able to read whole sentence." As with LIT1 (V108), those with secondary or higher schooling were presumed to have attained the highest literacy level.
For Phases 1-3 of the DHS, information on literacy was collected using a different approach, by simply asking whether the person could read (LIT1).

BLIND/VISUALLY IMPAIRED 5LITBRIG serves as a bridging variable between two approaches to collecting information on literacy. Initially, respondents were asked, "Can you read a letter or newspaper easily, with difficulty, or not at all?" In many countries, persons with secondary or higher levels of schooling were presumed to "read easily," but coding criteria varied across countries.
Beginning with Phase 4 of the DHS, persons with less than secondary school education were asked to demonstrate their literacy level by reading aloud a sentence on a card and were classified as "cannot read at all," "able to read only parts of sentence," and "able to read whole sentence." As before, those with secondary or higher schooling were presumed to have attained the highest literacy level.
LITBRIG combines information from the first approach of asking about literacy (in LIT1 [V108]) and the second approach of testing literacy based on reading a sentence aloud (in LIT2 [V155]).

NEITHER STERILIZED (CONTINUE)
HE OR SHE IS STERILIZED (GO TO 813)For countries with low contraceptive prevalence, FERTPREF (V602) reports responses to the question, "Would you like to have a (another) child or would you prefer not to have any (more) children"? The standard response categories are "have another," "no more/none," "says she can't get pregnant," and "undecided or don't know."
In Phase I, FERTPREF (V602), was constructed from two questions in countries with high contraceptive prevalence (Model "A" questionnaires). Women who responded that they want another child, but when asked when they would like the next child, respond that they cannot get pregnant, are classified in the "declared infecund category," and not in the "Wants another" category.
Some samples also include the response "up to God." More detailed responses under the general category "says she can't get pregnant" are sometimes available. In IPUMS-DHS, all responses in the general category of "not at risk of pregnancy" share a common first digit of 5, while the second digit distinguishes between the specific reasons. In some countries, women who never had sexual intercourse (coded as "53" in IPUMS-DHS) were not asked the questions relating to their desire for future children.
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.99NIU (not in universe)98Missing53Never had sex52Declared infecund51Sterilized50Not at risk of pregnancy40Up to God30No more20Undecided10Have anotherGeneral family planning Variables -- TOPICSUnmet need for FP1002) HIV is the virus that can lead to AIDS.

DON'T KNOW 8UNMETNEED (V624) is a constructed variable that reports a woman's need for family planning according to whether she has an unmet need or a met need to space or to limit her future births.
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.
The following describes the constructed categories in more detail:
Unmet need for spacing includes pregnant women whose pregnancy was mistimed, postpartum amenorrheic women whose last birth was mistimed, and fecund women who are neither pregnant nor postpartum amenorrheic and who are not using any method of family planning and say they want to wait two or more years for their next birth, are undecided about the timing of the next birth, or are undecided whether to have another child.
Unmet need for limiting includes pregnant women whose pregnancy was unwanted, postpartum amenorrheic women whose last birth was unwanted, and fecund women who are neither pregnant nor postpartum amenorrheic and who are not using any method of family planning and who want no more children.
Met need for spacing includes women who are using some method of family planning and say they want to have another child, are undecided about the timing of the next birth, or are undecided whether to have another child.
Met need for limiting includes women who are using family planning and who want no more children.
Note that the specific methods (modern or traditional) are not taken into account here.
Met need describes women who have no need for contraceptive methods, either because they desire a child soon (within the next two years) or because they are menopausal or infecund.
In high contraceptive prevalence countries (Model "A" countries), pregnant and postpartum amenorrheic women whose pregnancy was the result of a contraceptive failure are not included in the category of unmet need, but they are categorized as spacing failures or limiting failures. In low contraceptive prevalence countries (Model "B" countries), no such distinction is made, since information was not collected on contraceptive failure. Infecund women are also excluded from the unmet need categories.
The "Online Guide to DHS Statistics" provides the following definitions:
Fecundity: A woman is assumed to be fecund unless she declares that she is infecund, had a hysterectomy, or is menopausic. Women who are neither pregnant nor postpartum amenorrheic but who have not menstruated for six or more months, and married women who have not used contraception in the past five years but have not had a birth and are not pregnant, are also considered infecund.
Failure to Space: This includes women who are pregnant (not due to a contraceptive failure) or are less than six months postpartum amenorrheic who say they wanted the current pregnancy later.
Failure to Limit: This includes women who are pregnant (not due to a contraceptive failure) or are less than six months postpartum amenorrheic who say that they did not want another child before they became pregnant.
Excluded from the unmet need category are women who became pregnant while using a method (these women are in need of a better method of contraception).
The infecund or menopausal category on the UNMETNEED (V624) variable contains fewer cases than the EXPOSURE1 variable, because women who are categorized as infecund or menopausal, but are currently using a contraceptive method, are recorded in the two "met need" categories in UNMETNEED.
UNMETNEED (V624) incorporates responses to the following variables:
[EXPOSURE1/V623], which reports the woman's exposure to the risk of pregnancy, defined as pregnant, postpartum amenorrheic, menopausal or infecund, and fecund.
[ V225], which reports whether a current pregnancy was wanted then, later or not at all (for women who were pregnant at the time of interview).
[KIDDESIRE/V605] ,which reports whether the woman wants more children and when she would like them.
[FPMETHNOW/V312] which reports the woman's current use of contraception.
Users are also encouraged to see details of this variable provided in the "Online Guide to DHS Statistics" (Rutstein and Rojas, 2006) [URL omitted from DDI.].99NIU (not in universe)98Missing61Desire birth in less than 2 years60No unmet need53Never had sex52Not in union, not sexually active51Infecund or menopausal50Not at risk41No sex, want to wait40Future need for FP32Limiting failure31Spacing failure30Had FP failure22Using to limit21Using to space20Now using FP12Unmet need to limit11Unmet need to space10Has unmet need for FPGeneral family planning Variables -- TOPICSUnmet need for FP (2nd def)1002) HIV is the virus that can lead to AIDS.

DON'T KNOW 8UNMETNEED2 (V626) is a constructed variable that indicates a woman's need for family planning according to whether she has an unmet need or a met need to space or to limit her future births. UNMETNEED2 is similar to UNMETNEED, but UNMETNEED2 differently categorizes women who are infecund or menopausal but are currently using a contraceptive method.
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.
The construction of UNMETNEED2 uses a definition of fecundity based on exposure status as reported in EXPOSURE2. UNMETNEED, by contrast, uses a definition of exposure status as reported in EXPOSURE1. See the descriptions of these two variables for discussion of their differences.99NIU (not in universe)98Unknown53No sex, want to wait/not married and no sex in last 30 days52Never had sex51Infecund, menopausal50Not at risk for pregnancy41Desire birth in less than 2 yrs40No unmet need32Limiting failure31Spacing failure30Family limitation failure22Using to limit21Using to space20Now using FP12Unmet need to limit11Unmet need to space10Has unmet need for FPGeneral family planning Variables -- TOPICSUnmet need for contraception (definition 3)1002) HIV is the virus that can lead to AIDS.

DON'T KNOW 8Like UNMETNEED and UNMETNEED2, UNMETNEED3 (V626A) is a constructed variable that indicates a woman's need for family planning, according to whether she has an unmet need or a met need to space or to limit her future births.
UNMETNEED3 is similar to UNMETNEED and UNMETNEED2. However, due to increased scrutiny of unmet need measures and the need for more consistent methods to collect these data, MEASURE DHS organized a Technical Expert Working Group (TEWG) to address these concerns. Broadly, the revisions agreed upon are as follows:
Exclude inconsistently collected data
Do not assume an unmet need status for women missing key data
Simplify classification of unmet need for spacing versus unmet need for limiting
Shorten the duration for which women are considered to be postpartum amenorrheic
Standardize the calculation of infecundity
Explicitly handle inconsistencies

UNDECIDED/DON'T KNOW (GO TO 812)KIDDESIRE (V605) is a constructed variable that distinguishes between women who want another child soon (in less than two years), who want another child later (in 2+ years), who want no more children, and who aren't sure (about timing or about the number of children desired).
When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.
The construction of this variable has changed across phases of the DHS and varies across countries (only sometimes distinguishing between groups of women not at risk of pregnancy due to sterilization, infecundity, or virginity). To maximize comparability across samples, IPUMS-DHS employs composite coding. Women who want more children share a common first digit of 1, women not at risk of pregnancy share a common first digit of 6, and detail present in only some samples is specified in the code's second digit.99NIU (not in universe)98Unknown63Never had sex62Declared infecund61Sterilized60Not at risk of pregnancy51Up to God50Fatalistic response40Wants no more30Undecided13Wants, unsure timing12Wants after 2+ years11Wants within 2 years10Wants more childrenGeneral family planning Variables -- TOPICSWanted last child228) When you got pregnant, did you want to get pregnant at that time?

The information is collected through hypothetical questions such as, "If you could go back to the time you did not have any children and could choose exactly the number of children to have in your whole life, how many would that be?" (for women with living children) or "If you could choose exactly the number of children to have in your whole life, how many would that be?" (for women without living children).
If the woman responded with a range of values, IDEALKID reports the midpoint between those values. According to the DHS Recode Manuals, "If the midpoint is not an exact number then the number is rounded up in half the cases and rounded down for the other half." The questionnaires included space for non-numeric "other" responses, such as "Up to God."

Starting in Phase II, there are differences in the way these data are reported between Model "A" and Model "B" countries, due to the inclusion of a detailed calendar of events in the five years preceding the interview in Model "A" questionnaires. For Model "B" questionnaires, any response greater than 8 years is topcoded at "96." However, for Model "A" questionnaires, the maximum duration of use that could be recorded is the entire length of the calendar (i.e., 5 years).0000 months0011 month0022 months0033 months0044 months0055 months0066 months0077 months0088 months0099 months01010 months01111 months01212 months01313 months01414 months01515 months01616 months01717 months01818 months01919 months02020 months02121 months02222 months02323 months02424 months02525 months02626 months02727 months02828 months02929 months03030 months03131 months03232 months03333 months03434 months03535 months03636 months03737 months03838 months03939 months04040 months04141 months04242 months04343 months04444 months04545 months04646 months04747 months04848 months04949 months05050 months05151 months05252 months05353 months05454 months05555 months05656 months05757 months05858 months05959 months06060 months06161 months06262 months06363 months06464 months06565 months06666 months06767 months06868 months06969 months07070 months07171 months07272 months07373 months07474 months07575 months07676 months07777 months07878 months07979 months08080 months08181 months08282 months08383 months08484 months08585 months08686 months08787 months08888 months08989 months09090 months09191 months09292 months09393 months09494 months09595 months09696 or more months995All calendar years996Inconsistent response997Don't know998Missing999NIU (not in universe)Recent use of family planning Variables -- TOPICSFirst source for contraception for current method316) You first started using (CURRENT METHOD) in (DATE FROM 309).

Folkloric methods are the category "other" and country-specific methods (such as herbs or amulet), which vary across samples. In some cases, however, there are exceptions to this organization; see Comparability.
Additionally, while FPTYPRHY (V304A_08) and the other "FPTYP" variables report whether a specific method is considered to be modern, traditional, or folkloric method in a given sample, IPUMS-DHS users may be interested in the complementary variable FPTYPNOW (V313), which indicates whether the woman's current contraceptive method is modern, traditional, or folkloric.1Modern method2Traditional method3Folkloric method9NIU (not in universe)Type of family planning method Variables -- TOPICSType of method: WithdrawalSECTION 3.

NO 2For women who gave birth in the last three to five years and whose last-born child is still alive, BOTTLE24H (V415) indicates whether the last-born child drank anything from a bottle with a nipple during the previous day and night.
When women are the unit of analysis, IPUMS-DHS users may also use BRSFEDBOT_01 (M38_01), which also indicates whether the woman gave her last-born child anything from a bottle with a nipple during the previous day and night.
When children are the unit of analysis, BOTTLE24H describes a characteristic of the mother, which causes all young children of the mother to be coded the same way. If the mother reported that she fed her last-born child with a bottle with a nipple during the previous day or night, all of her children in the data are coded as "yes," including any children who have died or who live elsewhere.
When children are the unit of analysis, a positive response in BOTTLE24H thus does not necessarily indicate that a particular child was actually fed with a bottle with a nipple during the previous day or night. IPUMS-DHS users should instead employ, when available, the variable BRSFEDBOT (M38) to determine whether the specific child in question actually drank anything from a bottle with a nipple during the previous day and night.0No1Yes7Don't know8Missing9NIU (not in universe)Breastfeeding and infant feeding Variables -- TOPICSWoman currently breastfeeding any child469) Are you still breastfeeding (NAME)?

HOURS 1 ____
DAYS 2 ____For women who gave birth in the last three to five years and breastfed their last-born child, BFEEDST (V426) reports the length of time between the birth and when the woman first breastfed her last-born child. Following DHS convention, intervals reported in hours are coded with a "1" in the first digit, and intervals reported in days are coded with a "2" in the first digit.
When women are the unit of analysis, IPUMS-DHS users may also use BRSFEDST_01 (M34_1), which also reports the length of time between the birth and when the woman first breastfed her child (for the last birth).
When children are the unit of analysis, BFEEDST describes a characteristic of the mother, which causes all young children of the mother to be coded the same way. Thus, a response of a certain number of hours or days in BFEEDST does not necessarily indicate that a particular child whose record is being analyzed was first breastfed after that amount of time. IPUMS-DHS users should instead employ, when available, the variable BRSFEDST (M34) to determine the length of time between the specific child's birth and when that child was first breastfed.000Immediately100Within first hour1011 hour1022 hours1033 hours1044 hours1055 hours1066 hours1077 hours1088 hours1099 hours11010 hours11111 hours11212 hours11313 hours11414 hours11515 hours11616 hours11717 hours11818 hours11919 hours12020 hours12121 hours12222 hours12323 hours12424 hours12525 hours12626 hours12727 hours12828 hours12929 hours13030 hours13131 hours13232 hours13333 hours13434 hours13535 hours13636 hours13737 hours13838 hours13939 hours14040 hours14141 hours14242 hours14343 hours14444 hours14545 hours14646 hours14747 hours14848 hours14949 hours15050 hours15151 hours15252 hours15353 hours15454 hours15555 hours15656 hours15757 hours15858 hours15959 hours16060 hours16161 hours16262 hours16363 hours16464 hours16565 hours16666 hours16767 hours16868 hours16969 hours17070 hours17171 hours17272 hours17373 hours17474 hours17575 hours17676 hours17777 hours17878 hours17979 hours18080 hours18181 hours18282 hours18383 hours18484 hours18585 hours18686 hours18787 hours18888 hours18989 hours19090 hours199Hours: Number missing200Within first day2011 day2022 days2033 days2044 days2055 days2066 days2077 days2088 days2099 days21010 days21111 days21212 days21313 days21414 days21515 days21616 days21717 days21818 days21919 days22020 days22121 days22222 days22323 days22424 days22525 days22626 days22727 days22828 days22929 days23030 days23131 days23232 days23333 days23434 days23535 days23636 days23737 days23838 days23939 days24040 days24141 days24242 days24343 days24444 days24545 days24646 days24747 days24848 days24949 days25050 days25151 days25252 days25353 days25454 days25555 days25656 days25757 days25858 days25959 days26060 days26161 days26262 days26363 days26464 days26565 days26666 days26767 days26868 days26969 days27070 days27171 days27272 days27373 days27474 days27575 days27676 days27777 days27878 days27979 days28080 days28181 days28282 days28383 days28484 days28585 days28686 days28787 days28888 days28989 days29090 days299Days: Number missing997Don't know998Missing999NIU (not in universe)Breastfeeding and infant feeding Variables -- TOPICSHeard of ORS for diarrhea treatmentDIATRORSHEARD (V416) indicates whether the woman ever heard of using an oral rehydration solution (ORS) to treat diarrhea.

An anthropometry measure expressed in reference standard deviation units is also known as a Z-score. BIOFHTASDRM values are reported in units equal to 100 times the Z-score, to preserve two decimal places without requiring the use of a decimal point.

The reference standard contains data for children up to age 18. For all women age 18 and over, the value of 215 months (17 years, 11 months) is used, based on the assumption that women are fully grown by age 18.
HEIGHTFEM (V438) reports the respondent's length or height, as measured by DHS personnel.
The complementary DHS variable BIOFHTAPCT (V439) reports the respondent's height-for-age percentile within the same reference population used in BIOFHTASDRM. The complementary DHS variable BIOFHTAPCTRM (V441) reports the respondent's height-for-age as a percentage of the median of the same reference population.

The reference standard contains data for children up to age 18. For all women age 18 and over, the value of 215 months (17 years, 11 months) is used, based on the assumption that women are fully grown by age 18.
HEIGHTFEM (V438) reports the respondent's length or height as measured by DHS personnel.

This variable uses a DHS reference standard.
An anthropometry measure expressed in reference standard deviation units is also known as a Z-score. BIOFWTHTSDRM values are reported in units equal to 100 times the Z-score, to preserve two decimal places without requiring the use of a decimal point. Dividing BIOFWTHTSDRM by 100 will yield the height-for-age Z-score (HAZ) value.
The complementary DHS variable BIOFWTHTPCTDHS (V442) reports weight-for-height percentiles within the same reference population. Unlike z-scores, percentiles do not allow comparison across age and sex and cannot assess longitudinal change in growth status; users are advised to consult anthropometry literature for further discussion.9995Flagged cases9998Missing9999NIU (not in universe)Female anthropometry Variables -- TOPICSBody Mass Index (BMI) for respondents to the women's surveyBIOFBMI (V445) reports the female respondent's body mass index (BMI). BMI is an anthropometric measure relating weight to height, equal to body weight (kilograms) divided by height (meters) squared (W/(H^2)). Also known as the Quetelet Index, BMI is a measure of acute nutritional status, based on the Fogarty Metropolitan Life tables of ideal weight for height.
The DHS Guide to Statistics offers the following guidelines for interpreting BMI scores for women age 15-49:
Severely thin: less than 16.0
Moderately thin: 16.0 to 16.9
Mildly thin: 17.0 to 18.4
Normal: 18.5 to 24.9
Overweight: 25.0 to 29.9
Obese: 30.0 or more
The original height and weight values used to calculate BMI are also included in IPUMS-DHS. WEIGHTFEM (V437) reports the respondent's weight in kilograms, as measured by DHS personnel; HEIGHTFEM (V438) reports the person's length or height in centimeters, as measured by DHS personnel.
For an alternate measure of female nutrition, IPUMS-DHS users may also be interested in BIOFROHRER (V446), which reports the respondent's Rohrer's Index. This measure is equal to body weight (kilograms) divided by height (meters) cubed (W/(H^3)).9995Flagged cases9998Missing9999NIU (not in universe)Female anthropometry Variables -- TOPICSRohrer's index (mass/height cubed) (for respondents to female survey)BIOFROHRER (V446) reports the respondent's Rohrer's Index. Rohrer's Index is an anthropometric measure relating weight to height, equal to body weight (kilograms) divided by height (meters) cubed (W/(H^3)). Rohrer's Index is a measure of acute nutritional status, and may be used as an alternative to Body Mass Index.
The original height and weight values used to calculate Rohrer's Index are also included in IPUMS-DHS. WEIGHTFEM (V437) reports the respondent's weight in kilograms as measured by DHS personnel; HEIGHTFEM (V438) reports their length or height in centimeters as measured by DHS personnel.

YEAR _________KIDDOBCDC (B18) reports the century day code for the child's date of birth.
Century day codes (CDC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete. Century day codes are conceptually similar to century month codes (CMC), but century day codes provide additional detail.
According to the DHS Program's "Calculating the Age of Children More Precisely" documentation,
The century day code is analogous to the century month code and gives the number of days since the beginning of 1900. The century day code for a date of birth is computed in a similar manner to the century month code, using the reported day, month and year of birth, and the reported age in years for living children, as well as an imputation process for incompletely or inconsistently reported information. Note that for simplicity in the calculation of the century day code the assumption is that 1900 is a leap year, but this is also how Excel works too. This doesn't affect any calculations of age as all calculations are using a consistent base.
Age in years is then calculated by subtracting the century day code for the date of birth from the century day code for the date of interview, and dividing the result by 365.25 (allowing for a leap year every 4 years) and taking the integer part of the result to get completed years. For age in months, divide the difference between the date of interview CDC and the date of birth CDC by 30.4375 (365.25 divided by 12 months), and then take the integer part to get completed months.
For more information about the calculation of century month codes, see INTDATECMC (V008).
The century day codes reported in KIDDOBCDC are calculated using the Gregorian calendar.Child demography core Variables -- TOPICSChild's birth order number403) PREGNANCY HISTORY NUMBER FROM 212 IN PREGNANCY HISTORY.

Dividing HWHEIGHT by 10 will yield the child's measured height in centimeters.
In most surveys, HWHEIGHT was measured as a standing height for children at least 24 months old and as a recumbent length (with the child lying down) for children less than 24 months old, following WHO guidelines. As the DHS recode manuals note, however, there may be discrepancies between policy and practice with respect to this protocol. The related variable HWHTHOWMEAS indicates whether the child's height was measured as a recumbent length or a standing height, and is available for most surveys from Phase 2 forward.9994Not present9995Refused9996Other9997Out of range9998Missing9999NIU (not in universe)Child anthropometry Variables -- TOPICSIndex to birth history, for child measurement212) PREGNANCY HISTORY NUMBER

The DHS recode manuals for Phase 2 forward report that the day of birth of the child
is used in conjunction with the date of measurement of the child to more finely calculate the age of the child in days when computing anthropometric measures. This level of accuracy can be important in very young children. The age of the child calculated from the day of birth information is not used as a background characteristic for tabulations, but purely to produce a more accurate set of anthropometric measures.
DHS analysis thus uses HWDAYOFBIRTH and the date of the child's height and weight measurement to precisely calculate child malnutrition indicators such as height-for-age (stunting) and weight-for-age (underweight) Z-scores.011022033044055066077088099101011111212131314141515161617171818191920202121222223232424252526262727282829293030313196Inconsistent97Don't know98Missing99NIU (not in universe)Child anthropometry Variables -- TOPICSDay of measurementDISTRICT ________

OTHER 9996For surviving children born in the three to five years before the survey, HWBMIZWHO (HW73) reports the difference between the child's body mass index (BMI) and the median BMI of a reference population of the same age and sex, expressed in units equal to one standard deviation of the reference population's distribution. An anthropometry measure expressed in reference standard deviation units is also known as a Z-score. HWBMIZWHO values are reported in units equal to 100 times the Z-score, to preserve two decimal places without requiring the use of a decimal point. Dividing HWBMIZWHO by 100 will yield a child's BMI-for-age Z-score (BMIZ) value.
BMI is an anthropometric measure relating weight to height, equal to body weight (kilograms) divided by height (meters) squared. Considered in relation to a reference population, child BMI-for-age is valuable for assessing either underweight or overweight status, and particularly useful in settings where child malnutrition and child obesity coexist.
Reference populations used to generate HWBMIZWHO draw from the WHO Multicenter Growth Reference Study (MGRS) [URL omitted from DDI.] released in 2006, which defined new standard anthropometry curves using a globally diverse reference population intended to reflect healthy growth conditions. For DHS samples that preceded WHO MGRS release, DHS retroactively calculated BMI-for-age Z scores using WHO MGRS reference data. DHS does not calculate BMI-for-age measures using the reference populations that preceded WHO MGRS (the 1978 U.S. CDC National Center for Health Statistics International Growth Reference data).
The original height and weight values used to calculate BMI are also included in the DHS. HWWEIGHT (HW2) reports the child's weight in kilograms as measured by DHS personnel; HWHEIGHT (HW3) reports the child's length or height in centimeters as measured by DHS personnel. See HWHEIGHT and HWHTHOWMEAS (HW15) for specifics on child length/height measurement. The related variable KIDAGEMO (HW1) reports the child's age in months at the time of measurement.9995Height out of plausible limits9996Age in days out of plausible limits9997Flagged cases9998Missing9999NIU (not in universe)Child anthropometry Variables -- TOPICSReceived prenatal care409) Whom did you see?

NO 2 (GO TO 445)For children born in the three to five years before the survey, PPABMO (M8) indicates the duration, in months, of the mother's postpartum abstinence after the child was born. Children with mothers who were still abstaining at the time of interview were excluded from PPABMO, but they are included in the similar variable PPABMOC (M9).
According to the DHS Recode Manuals, the maximum period allowed during the data editing was the interval between the date of birth of the child and the date of conception of the following child (with date of birth minus nine months used for the date of conception) or until the date of interview if there was no following birth. Cases exceeding this duration were left with the original response, but are coded with one of the flag codes on PPABFLAG (M29) and are coded as "Inconsistent" on PPABMOC.93Sex res/no duration000 months011022033044055066077088099101011111212131314141515161617171818191920202121222223232424252526262727282829293030313132323333343435353636373738383939404041414242434344444545464647474848494950505151525253535454555556565757585859596060+9040 days95Still abstaining96Inconsistent97Don't know98Missing99NIU (not in universe)Child health postpartum Variables -- TOPICSMonths of mother's postpartum abstinence (including women still abstaining)441) Now I want to talk to you about what happened after you left the facility.

DON'T KNOW 98PPAMHMOC (M9) reports the duration, in months, of mother's postpartum amenorrhea after the birth of the child, for children born in the three to five years preceding the survey. Mothers whose period had not returned before the following birth or prior to the interview were included in PPAMHMOC. By contrast, only children of women whose menses had resumed were included in the similar variable PPAMHMO.
The maximum period allowed during the data editing (by the survey administrators) was the interval between the date of birth of the child and the date of conception of the mother's following child (with birth date minus nine months used for the date of conception) or the date of interview if there was no following birth.
For DHS Phase II forward, inconsistent durations based on the original reporting of the duration of amenorrhea were recoded to "Inconsistent" (code "96" in IPUMS-DHS). In cases where the duration was one month longer than the interval, the duration was shortened by one month, consistent with Phase I. For Model "A" countries in Phase II only, if the duration of mother's postpartum amenorrhea extended into her pregnancy in the calendar, the duration was shortened to the start of the following pregnancy.000 months0110220330440550660770880991010111112121313141415151616171718181919202021212222232324242525262627272828292930303131323233333434353536363737383839394040414142424343444445454646474748484949505051515252535354545555565657575858595996Inconsistent97Don't know98Missing99NIU (not in universe)Child health postpartum Variables -- TOPICSFlag variable for mother's postpartum amenorrheaPPAMFLAG (M28) reports the type of problem, if any, found in editing data on the duration of the child's mother's postpartum amenorrhea, for children born in the three to five years before the survey.

Cases in these two categories were excluded from the related variable BRSFEDUR on the duration of breastfeeding.
For DHS Phase II forward, inconsistent durations based on the original report of the duration of breastfeeding were coded as "Inconsistent." In cases where the reported duration was one month longer than the relevant interval, the duration was shortened by one month. If the duration of breastfeeding exceeded the child's age at death, the duration of breastfeeding was changed to the child's age at death.000 months011022033044055066077088099101011111212131314141515161617171818191920202121222223232424252526262727282829293030313132323333343435353636373738383939404041414242434344444545464647474848494950505151525253535454555556565757585859596060+92Ever breastfed, not currently breastfeeding93Missing: Not asked (child died)94Never breastfed96Inconsistent97Don't know98Missing99NIU (not in universe)Child's breastfeeding Variables -- TOPICSBreastfeeding status (categorical)469) Are you still breastfeeding (NAME)?

DON'T KNOW 8MAFEDWATER24H (V409) indicates whether the child's mother gave her youngest surviving child plain water during the previous day, either at night or during the daytime. This variable describes a characteristic of the mother rather than the child.
Although the question wording asks about foods given to a specific child during the previous day, responses relate to the mother, so all young children of the mother are coded the same way. If the mother reported she gave her youngest surviving child plain water in the previous day, all of her children in the data are coded as "yes," including any children who have died or who live elsewhere.
A positive response in MAFEDWATER24H thus does not necessarily indicate whether a particular child of the mother drank plain water during the previous day. IPUMS-DHS users should instead employ the variable FEDWATER24H (M37A) to determine whether the child drank plain water during the previous day. See Comparability.
The related variable MAFEDWATER24HX (V469A) reports the number of times the child's mother gave her youngest surviving child plain water during the previous 24 hours. MAFEDWATERWKD (V470A) reports the number of days the child's mother gave her youngest surviving child plain water during the past week.0No1Yes7Don't know8Missing9NIU (not in universe)Foods fed child in past 24 hours Variables -- TOPICSMother fed youngest child juice in past 24 hours650) Now I would like to ask you about liquids or foods that (NAME FROM 649) had yesterday during the day or at night.

Although the question wording asks about foods given to a specific child during the previous day, responses relate to the mother, so all young children of the mother are coded the same way. If the mother reported she gave her youngest surviving child juice in the previous day, all of her children in the data are coded as "yes," including any children who have died or who live elsewhere.
A positive response in MAFEDJUICE24H thus does not necessarily indicate whether a particular child of the mother drank juice during the previous day. IPUMS-DHS users should instead employ the variable FEDJUICE24H (M37C) to determine whether the child drank juice during the previous day. See Comparability.
The related variable MAFEDJUICE24HX (V469C) reports the number of times the child's mother gave her youngest surviving child juice during the previous 24 hours.

If the mother reported she gave her youngest surviving child bread, rice, noodles, porridge, or other foods made from grain in the previous day, all of her young children in the data are coded as "yes," including any children who have died or who live elsewhere.
A positive response in MAFEDGRAIN24H thus does not necessarily indicate whether a particular child of the mother ate bread, rice, noodles, porridge, or other foods made from grain during the previous day. IPUMS-DHS users should instead employ the variable FEDGRAIN24H (M37Q) to determine whether the child ate bread, rice, noodles, porridge, or other foods made from grain during the previous day.

This variable describes a characteristic of the mother rather than the child.
Although the question wording asks about foods given to a specific child during the previous day, responses relate to the mother, so all young children of the mother are coded the same way. If the mother reported she gave her youngest surviving child meat in the previous day, all of her young children in the data are coded as "yes," including any children who have died or who live elsewhere.
A positive response in MAFEDMEAT24H thus does not necessarily indicate whether a particular child of the mother ate meat during the previous day.

Although the question wording asks about foods given to a specific child during the previous day, responses relate to the mother, so all young children of the mother are coded the same way. If the mother reported she gave her youngest surviving child infant formula in the previous day, all of her children in the data are coded as "yes" (codes "1" through "7"), including any children who have died or who live elsewhere.
A positive response in MAFEDFORM24HX thus does not necessarily indicate whether a particular child of the mother drank infant formula during the previous day. IPUMS-DHS users should instead employ the variable FEDFORM24HX to determine how many times the child drank infant formula during the previous day. See Comparability.

Using MCASEID and CLUSTERNOMN (MV001), analysts can link IPUMS-DHS data to the original DHS datasets to attach variables that are not currently available in IPUMS-DHS. For example, researchers can use MCASEID and CLUSTERNOMN (MV001) to link variables from the IPUMS-DHS with other variables from the men's file to merge country-specific variables, or to the Household or Couples Recode file to attach variables that are not yet part of IPUMS-DHS.
In most samples, users can identify men who are in the same household by using the first 12 characters of MCASEID (and CLUSTERNOMN (MV001)), as this indicates a unique household identifier.
MCASEID is created by The DHS Program using the variables CLUSTERNOMN (MV001), HHNUMMN (MV002), and LINENOMN (MV003). The last three characters indicate the male respondent's line number in the household file.

It should be used along with the variable DOMAINMN (MV023) to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on the variance estimates and standard errors.
The DHS Recode Manuals for Phase 2 forward describe this variable as follows:
Primary sampling unit is a number assigned to sample points to identify the primary sampling units for use in the calculation of sampling errors. This variable is usually the same as the cluster number and/or the ultimate area unit, but may differ if the sample design required a multistage selection process.
See the notes on DHS webpage "Using sample weights" [URL omitted from DDI.] on variance estimation for additional information.PSUMN (MV021) is a 6-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific sampling strataFor men's samples, STRATAMN (MV022) defines the pairings or groupings of primary sampling units used in the calculation of sampling errors when using the Taylor series expansion method.
In two-stage sampling, The DHS Program may first group small geographic areas, such as enumeration areas from the last census, into broad strata defined jointly by region and urban versus rural areas within a region. In the second stage of sampling, a subset of geographic areas (sample clusters) are selected as the sites for interviewing from within defined strata.
STRATAMN is not the same as DOMAINMN (MV023). (Domains represent statistically representative areas for which valid summary statistics can be calculated for a survey, such as provinces and national urban versus rural combined areas, as described in the survey's final report.) The DHS Program recommends using STRATAMN along with the variable PSUMN (MV021) to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on the estimates of variance and standard errors, for men's samples.
Users are strongly encouraged to review the FAQ section provided by The DHS Program on specifying stratification and clustering here [URL omitted from DDI.], using Stata or SPSS to account for sample design.STRATAMN (MV022) is a 5-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific domainFor men's samples, DOMAINMN (MV023) defines the basic geographic units for which the sample was designed to yield representative estimates.
The DHS Recode Manual describes DOMAIN as follows:
For example, if the sample was designed to be self-weighting within region, this variable would define those regions; if the sample was designed to be self-weighting within major urban areas, other urban areas and rural areas, this variable would define the major urban, other urban and rural areas. If the sample is self-weighted at the national level, this variable is code 0.
When national estimates are desired and analyzing men's samples, users should include survey design variables, including DOMAINMN (MV023) and PSUMN (MV021), and the correct sample weights (e.g., PERWEIGHTMN (MV005)) to adjust sampling errors to account for DHS' sample design.
In most countries, DOMAIN (or DOMAINMN for men's samples) defines the stratification for the sample (generally either regional or national). However, some countries use two levels of stratification, such as region and urban/rural areas. Users should check for the correct stratification design by consulting the Final Report(s) for the sample(s) of interest (particularly the Introduction and Sample Design sections and Implementation Appendix).99999NIU (not in universe)Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific cluster numberIDENTIFICATION

According to the DHS Sampling Manual, "A cluster is the smallest geographical survey statistical unit for DHS surveys. It consists of a number of adjacent households in a geographical area. For DHS surveys, a cluster corresponds either to an [enumeration area], or a segment of a large [enumeration area]." The most recent census for a country, which divided all territory into enumeration areas to ensure full coverage of the population, often provides the sampling frame for a DHS survey.
CLUSTERNOMN is the variable indicating the primary sampling unit or PSU. It should be used along with the variable STRATAMN (MV022) to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on the estimates of variance and standard errors.
See the notes on DHS webpage "Use sample weights" [URL omitted from DDI.] on variance estimation for additional information.
CLUSTERNOMN (MV001) and HHNUMMN (MV002) can be used to merge the men's sample file to the household recode file.

While the DHS Recode Manuals direct the researcher to divide the original weight variable by 1,000,000 before applying the weighting factor to the original DHS data files, it is not necessary to modify the value of PERWEIGHTMN before applying this weight to cases in IPUMS-DHS.
PERWEIGHTMN should be used to weight nearly all tabulations made using IPUMS-DHS data from the men's samples.
Note: The 6 implied decimal places in PERWEIGHTMN mean that the last six digits of the eight-digit variable are decimal digits, but there is no actual decimal in the data.PERWEIGHTMN is an 8-digit numeric variable with 6 implied decimal places. See the variable description for directions on the use of PERWEIGHTMN.Weights and subsample selection Variables -- TOPICSYear of interviewINTERVIEWER VISITS

7 OTHER (SPECIFY) _________INTDATECMCMN (MV008) reports century month code for the date on which the interview with the male respondent took place.
Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC - ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )

Codes are country- and sample-specific; a given numeric code in one survey refers to a different person than the same numeric code in another survey. Numbering of interviewer codes is not necessarily consecutive; some surveys use "0" as an identification code, for example, while others begin with a 3-digit number. Using the interviewer identification codes, researchers can evaluate whether the quality of responses (e.g., the number of "missing" cases) depended on the person conducting the interview.99998MissingGeneral technical Variables -- TOPICSPakistan regions, 1991-2017 [integrated; GIS]IDENTIFICATION

AGE IN COMPLETED YEARS _____AGEMN (MV012) reports the man's age. DHS surveys collect information about the man's age through questions about age at last birthday and date of birth. DHS Recode Manuals provide the following information about how the AGE variable is calculated:
Current age in completed years is calculated from the century month code of the date of birth of the respondent (MV011) and the century month code of the date of interview (MV008). In a few cases the age in the data file will be different from that reported by the respondent when the respondent's birthday was in the month of interview, but he had not yet had his birthday. If the respondent correctly reported his age at his last birthday (and not his age at his next birthday) then the calculated age was rounded up from the reported age, to avoid inconsistencies between the age and the century month code for the birth.15151616171718181919202021212222232324242525262627272828292930303131323233333434353536363737383839394040414142424343444445454646474748484949505051515252535354545555565657575858595960606161626263636464656566666767686869697070717172727373747475757676777778787979808081818282838384848585868687878888898990909191929293939494959596969797+98MissingCore demographic Variables -- TOPICSAge in 5-year groups106) How old were you at your last birthday?

YEAR ______
DON'T KNOW YEAR 9998DOBCMCMN (MV011) reports the century month code (CMC) for the man's date of birth.
Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC - ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )

These variables can be used, in conjunction with HHID to match the men - s data with the women - s data, to allow for the analysis of couples. A value of "0" means the wife was not listed as a member of the household.
LINENOWIFE_ALL consists of a set of eight separate variables, covering the man's first wife/partner (LINENOWIFE_01) up to his eighth wife/partner (LINENOWIFE_08). If LINENOWIFE_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
Information for this variable was collected on all of the man's wives/partners, up to a maximum of eight. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to eight wives/partners, but no men in the survey had so many wives/partners (e.g., no man had seven or eight wives/partners).

In the DHS, generally modern methods are the Pill, IUD, injections, diaphragm, condom, female sterilization, male sterilization, implants, female condom, foam/jelly, lactational amenorrhea, and emergency contraception. Traditional methods are periodic abstinence (rhythm), withdrawal, and abstinence. Folkloric methods are the category "other" and country-specific methods (such as herbs or amulet), which vary across samples.

This variable should be used along with the variable DOMAINHH (HV023) to account for the impact of the sample design clustering on variance estimates and standard errors.
The DHS Recode Manuals for Phase 2 forward describe the primary sampling unit as follows:
Primary sampling unit is a number assigned to sample points to identify the primary sampling units for use in the calculation of sampling errors. This variable is usually the same as the cluster number and/or the ultimate area unit, but may differ if the sample design required a multistage selection process.
See the notes on DHS webpage "Using sample weights" [URL omitted from DDI.] on variance estimation for additional information.PSUHH (HV021) is a 5-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific sampling strataSTRATAHH (HV022) defines the pairings or groupings of primary sampling units used in the calculation of sampling errors when using the Taylor series expansion method.
In two-stage sampling, The DHS Program may first group small geographic areas, such as enumeration areas from the last census, into broad strata defined jointly by region and urban versus rural areas within a region. In the second stage of sampling, a subset of geographic areas (sample clusters) are selected as the sites for interviewing from within defined strata.
The STRATAHH variable is not the same as DOMAINHH (HV023). (Domains represent statistically representative areas for which valid summary statistics can be calculated for a survey, such as provinces and national urban versus rural combined areas, as described in the survey's final report.) The DHS Program recommends using STRATAHH along with the variable PSUHH (HV021) to account for the impact of the sampling design clustering on estimates of variance and standard errors.
Users are strongly encouraged to review the FAQ section provided by The DHS Program on specifying stratification and clustering here [URL omitted from DDI.], using Stata or SPSS to account for sample design.STRATAHH (HV022) is a 3-digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific domainDOMAINHH (HV023) defines the basic geographic units for which the sample was designed to yield representative estimates.
The DHS Recode Manual describes DOMAINHH as follows:
For example, if the sample was designed to be self-weighting within region, this variable would define those regions; if the sample was designed to be self-weighting within major urban areas, other urban areas and rural areas, this variable would define the major urban, other urban and rural areas. If the sample is self-weighted at the national level, this variable is code 0.
When representative estimates are desired, users should include survey design variables, including DOMAINHH (HV023) and PSUHH (HV021), and the correct sample weights (e.g., HHWEIGHT (HV005)) to adjust sampling errors to account for the DHS Program's sample design.
In most countries, DOMAINHH defines the stratification for the sample (generally either regional or national). However, some countries use two levels of stratification, such as region and urban/rural areas. Users should check for the correct stratification design by consulting the Final Report(s) for the sample(s) of interest (particularly the Introduction and Sample Design sections and Implementation Appendix).Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSHousehold number in clusterIDENTIFICATION

According to the DHS Sampling Manual, "A cluster is the smallest geographical survey statistical unit for DHS surveys. It consists of a number of adjacent households in a geographical area. For DHS surveys, a cluster corresponds either to an [enumeration area], or a segment of a large [enumeration area]." The most recent census for a country, which divided all territory into enumeration areas to ensure full coverage of the population, often provides the sampling frame for a DHS survey.
CLUSTERNOALL is the variable indicating the primary sampling unit or PSU. CLUSTERNOALL should be used along with the variable STRATAHH (HV022) to account for the impact of sample design clustering on the estimates of variance and standard errors.
See the notes on DHS webpage "Use sample weights" [URL omitted from DDI.] on variance estimation for additional information.
CLUSTERNOALL (HV001) and HHNUMALL (HV002) can be used to merge the household member recode file to the women's individual recode file. See the DHS webpage Merging Datasets [URL omitted from DDI.] on variables to be used for linking data sets.CLUSTERNOALL is an 8 digit variable.Identifiers Variables -- TOPICSSample-specific ultimate area unitULTAREAUNITALL (HV004) is a number assigned to each sample point to identify the ultimate area units used in the collection of data.

HHMWEIGHT should be used to weight all estimates produced using the households selected for the men's or husband's survey. For households not included in the men's or husband's survey, HHMWEIGHT is set to zero.
Note: For researchers using a flat data file (.dat), HHMWEIGHT contains 6 implied decimal places, and researchers should divide this variable by 1,000,000 before applying it as a weighting factor. For all other data formats, HHMWEIGHT has already been adjusted, and researchers do not need to make any changes before using this variable.000000000Weights and subsample selection Variables -- TOPICSTotal adults eligible for measurementTOTAL ELIGIBLE WOMEN _______

1) LINE NO. ______HHEADLINENO (HV218) reports the line number of the head of the household. According to the DHS recode manual:
This should always be 01; however, there are some households in certain surveys in which the head of household has not been listed as the first person in the household listing.
To determine the proportion of households (rather than persons in households) with a given characteristic (e.g., the share of households with electricity), researchers should restrict the sample of household members to one representative per household. Such restriction can be done by selecting only persons with line number 01 in the household roster (using HHLINENO) or selecting only persons coded as head of household in HHRELATE). HHEADLINENO demonstrates that these two criteria usually but not always identify the same person as a representative of the household.01102203304405506607708809910101111121213131414151516161717181819192020212122222323242499NIU (not in universe)Weights and subsample selection Variables -- TOPICSHousehold selected for hemoglobinHHEMOSELEC (HV042) indicates whether the household was selected for hemoglobin measurements of the household members.

9 OTHER (SPECIFY) __________HHINTCMC (HV008) reports the century month code for the date on which the interview took place.
Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC - ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )
The information above is based on "Online Guide to DHS Statistics" (Rutstein and Rojas, 2006) [URL omitted from DDI.].

9 OTHER (SPECIFY) __________INTERVIEWERIDHH (HV018) reports the interviewer identification code for the interviewer conducting the household survey. Codes are country- and sample-specific; a given numeric code in one survey refers to a different person than the same numeric code in another survey. Numbering of interviewer codes is not necessarily consecutive; some surveys use "0" as an identification code, for example, while others begin with a 3-digit number. Using the interviewer identification codes, researchers can evaluate whether the quality of responses (e.g., the number of "missing" cases) depended on the person conducting the interview.General technical Variables -- TOPICSUrban-rural statusRESIDENCE

Persons registered with NADRA may have been issued a National Identity Card (NIC), with a unique 13-digit identification number. According to the NADRA website, the NIC
is the first requirement of individuals as it is mandatory to obtain documents like license, NTN (National Tax Number), bank account, passport, cellular connection, etc. Every citizen of Pakistan, 18 years and above, is eligible for NIC.
Other responses refer to "name on 'Bay' form," with or without a birth certificate. This probably means the "B-form," an alternative name for the Child Registration Certificate (CRC), which is a document registering people under age 18 with NADRA. Most commonly, a birth certificate is part of the documentation used by parents to secure a CRC for their child. In Pakistan, birth certificates are issued by local jurisdictions, such as hospitals and town offices, not by NADRA.213Adult with no NIC card, no other information100YES110Has national identity card (NIC)120Has name on "Bay" form121Name on "Bay" form, has birth certificate122Name on "Bay" form, no birth certificate200NO210No proof of registration211Only birth certificate212Neither name on 'Bay" form nor birth certificate997Don't know998Missing999NIU (not in universe)Core demographic Variables -- TOPICSFlag for age from individual dataAGEFLAGIND (HML17) reports the completeness of the information about the household member's age, as collected on the individual, rather than household, questionnaire.

98 DON'T KNOWEDYEARS (HV108) reports the household member's education in single completed years. This variable is constructed from responses to EDLEVEL (HV106) and EDLEVYR (HV107), as follows:
If EDLEVEL = "No education," EDYEARS = "0"
If EDLEVEL = "Primary," EDYEARS = EDLEVYR
If EDLEVEL = "Secondary," EDYEARS = EDLEVYR + x
If EDLEVEL = "Higher," EDYEARS = EDLEVYR + y
If EDLEVEL = "Missing," EDYEARS = "Missing"
In the above equations, "x" equals the number of years needed to complete primary education, and "y" equals the number of years needed to complete primary and secondary education.

BMI is an anthropometric measure relating weight to height, equal to body weight (kilograms) divided by height (meters) squared (W/H2). BMI is also known as the Quetelet Index, and it is a measure of acute nutritional status, based on the Fogarty Metropolitan Life tables of ideal weight for height.
The DHS Guide to Statistics offers the following guidelines for interpreting BMI scores for women age 15-49:
Normal: 18.5 to 24.9
Mildly thin: 17.0 to 18.4
Moderately thin: 16.0 to 16.9
Severely thin: less than 16.0
Overweight: 25.0 to 29.9
Obese: 30.0 or more
The original height and weight values used to calculate BMI are also included in the DHS. HWFWEIGHT (HA2) reports the female household member's weight in kilograms as measured by DHS personnel; HWFHEIGHT (HA3) reports their length or height in centimeters as measured by DHS personnel.
For an alternate measure of female nutrition, IPUMS-DHS users may also be interested in HWFROHRER (the female household member's Rohrer's Index, which is equal to body weight (kilograms) divided by height (meters) cubed (W/H3)).9998Missing9999NIU (not in universe)9997Flagged casesFemale anthropometry Variables -- TOPICSRohrer's index (Female household members)For female household members of childbearing age, HWFROHRER (HA41) reports their Rohrer's Index.

Century day codes (CDC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete. They are similar to century month codes (CMC), but century day codes provide additional detail.
According to the DHS Program,
The century day code is analogous to the century month code and gives the number of days since the beginning of 1900. The century day code for a date of birth is computed in a similar manner to the century month code, using the reported day, month and year of birth, and the reported age in years for living children, as well as an imputation process for incompletely or inconsistently reported information. Note that for simplicity in the calculation of the century day code the assumption is that 1900 is a leap year, but this is also how Excel works too. This doesn - t affect any calculations of age as all calculations are using a consistent base.
Age in years is then calculated by subtracting the century day code for the date of birth from the century day code for the date of interview, and dividing the result by 365.25 (allowing for a leap year every 4 years) and taking the integer part of the result to get completed years. For age in months, divide the difference between the date of interview CDC and the date of birth CDC by 30.4375 (365.25 divided by 12 months), and then take the integer part to get completed months.
For more information about the calculation of century month codes, see INTDATECMC (V008).

YEAR _______For household members under age 5 who were potential subjects for height and weight measurement, HWCDAYOFBIRTH (HC16) reports the day of the month on which the child was born.
The DHS recode manuals report that the day of birth of the child
is used in conjunction with the date of measurement of the child to more finely calculate the age of the child in days when computing anthropometric measures. This level of accuracy can be important in very young children. The age of the child calculated from the day of birth information is not used as a background characteristic for tabulations, but purely to produce a more accurate set of anthropometric measures.
DHS analysis thus uses HWCDAYOFBIRTH and the date of the child's height and weight measurement to precisely calculate child malnutrition indicators such as height-for-age (stunting) and weight-for-age (underweight) Z-scores.011022033044055066077088099101011111212131314141515161617171818191920202121222223232424252526262727282829293030313196Inconsistent97Don't know98Missing99NIU (not in universe)Child biometrics, general Variables -- TOPICSMonth of birth (members under age 5)105) In what month and year were you born?

Century month codes (CMC) are particularly useful for checking the consistency of dates, calculating intervals between events, and imputing dates when the information for an event is missing or partially complete.
Century month codes (CMC) are calculated by multiplying by 12 the difference between the year of an event and 1900. The year 1900 was chosen as the reference period because all of the DHS-relevant events occurred during the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. The month of the event is added to the previous result.
CMC = (Year - 1900) * 12 + Month
For example, the CMC for June 2002 is:
CMC = (2002 - 1900) * 12 + 6 = 1230
In other words, 1,230 months have elapsed between January 1900 and June 2002. Starting with CMC figures, one can calculate the month and year using the following formulas:
Year = int( ( CMC - 1 )/12 ) + 1900
[int(x) is the integer part of x]
Month = CMC - ( ( Year - 1900 ) * 12 )
The information above is based on "Online Guide to DHS Statistics" (Rutstein and Rojas, 2006) [URL omitted from DDI.].

Note that for simplicity in the calculation of the century day code the assumption is that 1900 is a leap year, but this is also how Excel works too. This doesn - t affect any calculations of age as all calculations are using a consistent base.
Age in years is then calculated by subtracting the century day code for the date of birth from the century day code for the date of interview, and dividing the result by 365.25 (allowing for a leap year every 4 years) and taking the integer part of the result to get completed years. For age in months, divide the difference between the date of interview CDC and the date of birth CDC by 30.4375 (365.25 divided by 12 months), and then take the integer part to get completed months.
For more information about the calculation of century month codes, see INTDATECMC (V008).
The century day codes reported in HWCBIRTHCDC are calculated using the Gregorian calendar.99999NIU (not in universe)Child biometrics, general Variables -- TOPICSCompleteness of information: Date of birth (members under age 5)105) In what month and year were you born?

Reference populations used to generate HWCWHZWHO draw from the WHO Multicenter Growth Reference Study (MGRS) [URL omitted from DDI.] released in 2006, which defined new standard anthropometry curves using a globally diverse reference population intended to reflect healthy growth conditions. For DHS samples that preceded WHO MGRS release, DHS retroactively calculated weight-for-height Z scores using WHO MGRS reference data.
Prior to the WHO MGRS, DHS anthropometry reference populations drew from 1978 U.S. CDC National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) international growth reference [URL omitted from DDI.] data, which was the previous international standard reference. The DHS variable HWCWHZNCHS (HC11) reports the young household member's weight-for-height Z-score value using the NCHS/CDC 1978 reference population. DHS has continued to release versions of all anthropometric variables using NCHS/CDC 1978 reference populations, to preserve comparability with samples preceding the 2006 WHO MGRS release.
HWCWEIGHT (HC2) reports the young household member's weight in kilograms as measured by DHS personnel. HWCHEIGHT (HC3) reports their length or height in centimeters as measured by DHS personnel. See HWCHEIGHT and HWCHTHOWMEAS (HC15) for specifics on length/height measurement.9996Age in days out of plausible limits9997Flagged cases9998Missing9999NIU (not in universe)9995Height out of plausible limitsChild anthropometry Variables -- TOPICSBMI standard deviation (new WHO) (members under age 5)205) WEIGHT IN KILOGRAMS

OTHER 99996For household members under the age of 5, HWCBMIZWHO (HC73) reports the difference between their body mass index (BMI) and the median BMI of a reference population of the same age and sex, expressed in units equal to one standard deviation of the reference population's distribution. An anthropometry measure expressed in reference standard deviation units is also known as a Z-score. HWCBMIZWHO values are reported in units equal to 100 times the Z-score, to preserve two decimal places without requiring the use of a decimal point. Dividing HWCBMIZWHO by 100 will yield a BMI-for-age Z-score (BMIZ) value.
BMI is an anthropometric measure relating weight to height, equal to body weight (kilograms) divided by height (meters) squared. Considered in relation to a reference population, BMI-for-age is valuable for assessing either underweight or overweight status, and particularly useful in settings where malnutrition and obesity coexist.
Reference populations used to generate HWCBMIZWHO draw from the WHO Multicenter Growth Reference Study (MGRS) [URL omitted from DDI.] released in 2006, which defined new standard anthropometry curves using a globally diverse reference population intended to reflect healthy growth conditions. For DHS samples that preceded WHO MGRS release, DHS retroactively calculated BMI-for-age Z scores using WHO MGRS reference data. DHS does not calculate BMI-for-age measures using the reference populations that preceded WHO MGRS (the 1978 U.S. CDC National Center for Health Statistics International Growth Reference data).
The original height and weight values used to calculate BMI are also included in the DHS. HWCWEIGHT (HC2) reports the young household member's weight in kilograms as measured by DHS personnel; HWCHEIGHT (HC3) reports their length or height in centimeters as measured by DHS personnel. See HWCHEIGHT and HWCHTHOWMEAS (HC15) for specifics on child length/height measurement. The related variable AGEMOHHLT5 (HC1) reports age in months at the time of measurement.9996Age in days out of plausible limits9997Flagged cases9998Missing9999NIU (not in universe)9995Height out of plausible limitsChild anthropometry Variables -- TOPICSFieldworker measurer code for children's measurements (members under age 5)108) MEASURER: ENTER YOUR FIELDWORKER NUMBER
FIELDWORKER NUMBER ________For household members under age 5 who were potential subjects for height and weight measurement, HWCMEASCODE (HC21) reports the code assigned to the person measuring their children's height and weight. Codes are sample-specific; a given numeric code in one sample refers to a different person than the same numeric code in another sample.
Using the measurer code, researchers can evaluate whether the quality of responses (e.g., the number of "out of range" cases) depended on the person measuring the children.9998Missing9999NIU (not in universe)Child anthropometry Variables -- TOPICSLine number of household member selected for disability moduleHOUSEHOLD SCHEDULE
