Dear Sir/Madam,

I am not having the "All women factor" values from the NFHS-5 raw data.

The All Women Factors are: (PR file)

awfactt: All women factor for total population
awfactu: All women factor for place of residence (urban/rural)
awfactr: All women factor for region (according to the country's regions)
awfacte: All women factor for education (none, primary, secondary, higher)
awfactw: All women factor for wealth index (lowest, second, middle, fourth, highest)

For my research purpose, I need the data for the above-mentioned variables but in the dataset, it is shown as 100 for all the variables for every individual record in the PR file.

Please suggest, how to extract the values.

Herewith I am attaching the screenshot of the SPSS Datasheet.

Regards,
Ramajayam A

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

The all-women factors are only needed for surveys that are limited to ever-married women (EMW), and they include a factor of 100. For all-women surveys, the variables you list are included, but they are set to 100 for all cases. That means you don't need to use them. The India surveys include all women. They are not limited to EMWs.
