Codebook/Value Meaning [message #30482]

Hi there,

I have been working on the Kenya 2022 IR and MR files. I am wondering where I can find the codebook for the variables and values? I cannot tell what the categorical values mean. For example, v766b (Number of sex partners, including spouse, in last 12 months (women)) only presents values 0, 1, and 2. Are these numbers truly 0, 1, and 2, or is there a categorical meaning to them (i.e., representing different ranges or something).

Please let me know.

Thanks!

v766b is truly the number of sex partners in the last 12 months, including spouse.

For the codebook, please reference the file with "MAP" extension (this file can be opened in any text editor).
