Hello,

I am working on a paper looking at the intimate partner violence experienced by women and documented in the NFHS4. I had downloaded the SPSS dataset entitled "IAIR71FL" in November, 2017. In the Individual Recode Documentation it was labeled as Version 1 Doc 01. It came to my awareness that now the Individual Recode file on the DHS website is titled "IAIR73FL". It is labeled as Version 3 Doc 01. I am working with the first dataset I had downloaded but am wondering whether there have been any significant changes or additions made to this new dataset that may affect the analysis outcome?

Hope to hear from you soon and thank you for your time.


Best Wishes,
Aneree

Please look at the last page of the doc file (IAIR73FL.DOC) that's in the zip you downloaded, and you will find a "data alert" which gives a description of changes made.

This alert was also sent out to users who downloaded the previous versions.
