Dear User,
Here is a response from one of our experts, Dr. Shea Rutstein:
"As to ever use of contraception, we no longer ask it in our core questionnaire. I checked on the MICS site, and they do not ask it either.

As to whether the household has any durable goods, I can't find any question in Guinea nor in the report where it says that a household has no durable goods. Durable goods asked vary by country and so such a comparison I think is invalid.

The Nigeria 2013 survey does ask the standard media questions. Report tables 3.4.1 and 3.4.2 give the exposure to mass media for both women and men (50 percent of women and 37 percent of men with no access)."
