Thank you very much! I just have one more question. In some DHS datasets in the 1990s, perhaps only mothers' height (v438) is recorded. So in children's record (KR), the value of v438 is full, while in individual record (IR) many interviewed women's v438 is blank.

For these datasets, my interpretation is that those whose v438 is blank in IR are not mothers, and that those whose v438 is recorded in IR are just those whose v438 is recorded in KR (but some values of v438 may be repeated in KR, because one woman may have several children). Is this correct?

Thank you very much again!
