I failed to clarify that I am searching for the name of that variable in the IR or women's file. Thanks!

Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

The variable is d121 in the DV module:
d121            byte    %8.0g      D121       respondent's father ever beat her mother

I opened the Ghana 2022 IR file and entered "lookfor beat" in Stata. That's something you could have done. About 10 variables came up, including this one. If you have more questions, please identify at least one of the surveys you are working with.
