Hello,

I just want to seek your advice if there's a way I can generate variable on mother and father's years of schooling using DHS dataset?

Thank you.

Dear User,
Can you please be more specific?
V701, V702 are two education variables for women. In the woman's file V715 corresponds to most recent husband or partner's education. There are similar variables for education variables for men. You may want to refer to The Guide to DHS Statistics http://dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/DHSG1/Guide_to_DHS_Statistics _29Oct2012_DHSG1.pdf, The Standard Recode Manual http://dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/DHSG4/Recode6_DHS_22March2013 _DHSG4.pdf and the section on Using Datasets for Analysis http://dhsprogram.com/data/Using-Datasets-for-Analysis.cfm
Thank you for your post.
