I am yet to find any documentation on the 'score' variable aside from the codebook in my statistical software. According to the codebook the 'score' variable is an indicator of nutritional score, ranging from 0 to 15. Has anybody seen DHS-published documentation for this variable which could explain how it is derived and what the high/low values in the score refer to?

Thanks,

Jamie
