Hello,
The variables that I am interested in are included in "other data" file (egod5) of 2008. First, what is the unit of analysis for this dataset? Second, where can I find explanation of the included variables? I tried to explore "Recode 5 DHS manual", but I got lost. Under what section can I find the explanation of the variables and the unit of analysis for "other data" dataset?
Thank you.

As a follow up on my initial post, I will try to restate my question in a specific way. At the end of Egypt report, there is a Health Issues Questionnaire, in which I am interested in. I found the corresponding questions are included in "other data" dataset. However, the variables in this file start with "i" letter. I cannot find the corresponding variables, which start with "i", in the DHS Recode Manual. So, my question is where I can find the detailed descriptions of the variables that are included in the "other data" dataset. One more thing, I understood from the questionnaire that the unit of analysis is the individual, right?
Thank you again.
