Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
We don't get many questions about these variables. Glad you are using them. I will paste below some Stata lines that you can run on the PR file (not the HR file) to re-state the variables in terms of the lines numbers in the PR file (hvidx). Without some such reshaping it will be hard to use the disability data. The file constructed with these lines will be ready for a merge with the IR or MR files AFTER you have renamed state, cluster, hh, line (for example, v024, v001, v002, v003 in the IR file) and sorted.
The disability questions are asked for a maximum of 4 people (not 6) in a household that is reported to have one or more people with a disability. Please check the report and the questionnaire for more information about the selection and interpretation.
use "...IAPR7DFL.DTA", clear
