A response from Dr. Shea Rutstein:
Quote:

For Nepal 2001, memsleep is just the number of household members since there was no information on number of rooms. The ISSA recode for ownland is

{If owns agricultural land}
Ownland=0;
if s618=1 or s618=2 or v740=0 or v740=1 then ownland=1;endif;

Regards,

Shea
