Hi Bridgette,

Many thanks to you and Tom for that reply, that is helpful. I am still a little unclear though. Would you mind clarifying the following:

1) Is there documentation available detailing how variables in SNMR4HFL (such as MG124) were generated (coded) from specific questions in the questionnaire for FR177 (such as Q.710)?
2) Did Q.710 get included in the final recoded dataset as a variable?

The reason that I'd like to double check these before including the MG variables in my analysis is that I cannot find a question in FR177 which asks men about their perception of men's attitudes in general. However, I can find a question which asks men about women's attitudes in general (Q.710). On the other hand, I can't find a variable in SNMR4HFL corresponding to Q.710.

Is there any chance that MG124 corresponds to Q.710?

The wording of Q710 in FR177 is: " Pensez-vous que les femmes tiennent à ce que cette pratique soit conservée ou au contraire, pensez-vous qu'elles sont favorables à son abandon? "

Many thanks again for your help and apologies in advance if I am missing something obvious.

Laurence
