Hello,

Currently working on a project analyzing women's labor patterns and empowerment. The variable v731 (women's past work) has 3 options: 0=Not Working, 1=Worked in the Past 12 Months, 2=Currently Working. But, for Bangladesh 2004, there are only two options: 2=Currently Working and 3=Not Currently Working. This makes it function more like v714 (Currently Working), but we're also interested in the "past 12 months" aspect. We're hoping to figure out why the variable is coded this way, and if the information on work in the past 12 months exists elsewhere in the dataset.

Thanks!
