I am conducting research on women's empowerment, relative resources within partnerships, and intimate partner violence. I am particularly interested in including partner's alcohol consumption as a variable. Could anyone guide me on which dataset(s) or variable(s) from Ghana, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, or Mali capture information on partner's alcohol use? Thank you!

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

You are probably using the DV module in the IR file. It includes standard questions d113 and d114:

d113 byte %8.0g D113 husband/partner drinks alcohol
d114 byte %8.0g D114 frequency of husband/partner being drunk

If you are having trouble matching a table, please say specifically which table in which report and which number in the table.
