Thank you, Tom Pullman for the reply.

I apologize for the error. I meant the Male file of the 2014 Ghana DHS. Where variables to construct BMI for men collected? If you so what are those variables. Is there a standard recode form BMI?

Also, I have two other questions, if I may:

1. I need recodes for domestic violence variables for spousal violence for the Women's file of the 2014 GDHS. I have access to recent recode for IPV for Kenyan 2022 was wondering if one exist for Ghana.

2. I also need husband's characteristics for the women file such as - husband's age, education, alcohol use etc. Do I need to obtain the couple data to extract those variables?

Thank you for all your help for DHS users.

Best,

Winfred
