Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
The DHS disability module does include a Likert scale for each type of disability, but the questions about disabilities in NFHS-5 did not come from the module. There were three questions related to disabilities in the NFHS-5 household questionnaire, which were answered by the respondent to the household questionnaire. Question 31 asks "Does any usual resident of your household including you have any disability?" If yes, Question 32 asks "Please tell me the names of those persons." The interviewer records the name and line number of each person with a disability. For each of those persons, Question 33 asks "What type of disability does (NAME) have?" For each person with a disability, the type(s) of disabilities (hearing, speech, visual, mental, locomotor, other) are recorded. The extent of the disabilities is not asked or recorded.
