Following is a response from our DHS Team, Senior Demographic and Health Research Analyst, Jeffrey Edmeades, DHS Research & Data Analysis Director, Kerry MacQuarrie, and DHS Chief of Data Processing, Guillermo Rojas:

The questions in section 13 of the questionnaire appear to be drawn mainly from the Gender Equitable Men Scale (GEMS) English version here https://www.equimundo.org/resources/measuring-gender-attitud e-using-gender-equitable-men-scale-gems-in-various-socio-cul tural-settings/. We are not aware of an established scale for question 1302. We know that some gender advocacy groups participated in the design of the Colombia DHS 2015, but we cannot reconstruct the development of the questionnaire. The Colombia surveys are conducted almost completely independently from The DHS Program and USAID.
