Dear User,
According to our standard recode manual:
V106 Highest education level attended. This is a standardized variable providing level of
education in the following categories: No education, Primary, Secondary, and Higher. In
some countries the educational system does not fit naturally within this scheme and a
different categorization was used for the Final Report. In this case, this variable is
constructed as accurately as possible from the country's own scheme and the variable used
for the Final Report is included as a country-specific variable.
V107 Highest year of education gives the years of education completed at the level given in V106.
BASE: All respondents except those answering "No education" or with missing data for
V106 (V106 <> 0 & V106 <> 9).
Hope this helps to answer your question.
Our Standard Recode Manual is on our WEBSITE and can be accessed by clickin on the link http://dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/DHSG4/Recode6_DHS_22March2013 _DHSG4.pdf
If this does not answer your question, please feel free to post again.
Thank you!
