Following is a response from DHS Research & Data Analysis Director, Tom Pullum:

I have not done a complete check, but I am concerned with the initial lines like this: "replace sh150=0 if sh150==.". These variables (sh150-sh161) are only applicable to the children selected for the module. The dot or period indicates "Not applicable", which is not equivalent to "No". Can you try again without those lines? Also "discipline" should be coded NA if the sh variables are NA. It should not be initialized with code 0.
