Hi,

I'm using the DHS 4 India and I do not understand why there are so many missings on the questions related to economic activities (v714, v719, v731...). I do not see any filter on the questionnaire so it looks like all sampled women should answer to these questions. They also come with husband's characteristics, for which there are many missings.

For instance,
ta v714, mis
gives:

respondent |
currently |
working | Freq. Percent Cum.
------------+-----------------------------------
no | 93,713 13.39 13.39
yes | 28,638 4.09 17.49
. | 577,335 82.51 100.00
------------+-----------------------------------
Total | 699,686 100.00

Have you seen any information on the fact that this series of questions is answered only by a subsample?
Thanks for your help,
Christelle
