Hi there,

We would like to understand what the meaning of variables sh27_01 to sh27_24 is. We can see there is data for these variables, but which survey does it come from / who answered the question related to these variables (is it at HH level or individual male/female)?

Any assistance is appreciated, thank you!

The variables you are referencing are a country specific variables. For country specific questions, the variables are generally named and coded in the same way as they were on the questionnaire: with a leading "SH" if the question was asked at the household level, a leading "S" if asked at the women's level, and a leading "SM" if asked at the men's level.

The questionnaires can be found in the appendix of the final report.
