Dear User,
The variables V743A through V743E are the variables on decision making. In Malawi DHS 2015-16 We are dealing with Q921, Q922, Q923, Q924. The responses in these variables are recoded in the recode variable where 2 is now 4, 3 is now 2, 4 is now 5. Here is a little bit of CSPro code to clarify this point.
 {  Final say on making large household purchases }
    box  Q923 =>  V743B;
           1   =>   1;       { 1 Respondent                            }
           2   =>   4;       { 2 Husband, partner                      }
           3   =>   2;       { 3 Respondent & husband, partner jointly }
           4   =>   5;       { 4 Someone else                          }
         { 5   =>   3;       !! 5 Respondent & someone else jointly    }
           6   =>   6;       { 6 Other                                 }
               =>  Q923;
    endbox;


Hope this helps.
