Dear User,
Here is a response from one of our data processing experts,Mr. Noureddine Abderrahim:
V714 if constructed from the questions spontaneously or probed on whether the respondent worked the seven days preceding the survey (807 and 808 in the standard questionnaire) and whether she has a job from which she was absent (809 in the standard questionnaire).
V714A is the question on whether the respondent had a job from which she was absent (809 only).
V731 is a combination of the previous two variables V714 and V714A. If the respondent has a job from which she was absent, V731 is coded 3. If she is currently working, V731 is coded 2 otherwise V731 takes its value from the standard question 810 (whether the respondent worked in past 12 months. The codes are taken in this order, V714A checked first, V714, then 810.
You might want to check the flow of questions in the standard questionnaire DHS-VI that can be downloaded from the www.DHSprogram.com website http://www.DHSprogram.com and looking for DHS Questionnaires and Manuals in the publication search by type.
The questionnaires can be found by clicking on this link: http://dhsprogram.com/publications/publication-dhsq6-dhs-que stionnaires-and-manuals.cfm
If this does not answer your question, please feel free to post again.
