Hello DHS team,
I am reviewing the variable "sh115" in the household dataset for the Philippines. However, I can't seem to find information on this variable (pasted below). Can someone please guide me on what the results of this question mean? The answers range from approx 1 to 19 and also "non-defacto woman selected".
Thanks!

Dear User, If you look at the questionnaire which is found in one of the appendices in the final report http:// www.dhsprogram.com/publications/publication-FR294-DHS-Final- Reports.cfm, you will see that this variable shows the Line number of the woman selected for the Women's Safety Module. The frequencies you are looking at are unweighted frequencies and indicate that for all the households, 588 women were line number 1 in a household, 6558 women were line number 2, etc. 710 non-defacto women were identified to be interviewed but when showed non-defacto they should not have been interviewed and most likely were not. Defacto means they slept in the household the night before. In order for a woman to get into a table for this section, she would have to have a complete interview, be between the ages of 15-49, be defacto and use with Weight variable. Most of the tables in our final reports use weighted data, so if you look at the weighted frequencies, the numbers will look different.
