Dear all,

I am using the DHS datasets for the Uganda survey year 2006 (dataset UGIR52DT) and 2011 (dataset UGIR61DT). I am interested in the domestic violence variables, however, I struggle to find if the questions are the same for both survey years? For domestic violence survey year 2011, I found this (but no older manuals): https://dhsprogram.com/publications/publication-DHSQMP-DHS-Q uestionnaires-and-Manuals.cfm

I want to analyze if the female respondent experienced any emotional, physical violence from her husband/partner in the previous 12 months, and this is clear in the 2011 survey where the coding says:
never
often
sometimes
yes, but not in the last 12 months
yes, but frequency in the last 12 months missing

but in the 2006 survey, the coding is not the same. Then it says:
no
often
sometimes
not at all
yes, widow /frequency missing

Any suggestions on how I could interpret 2006, if for example, I could interpret the answers from 2006 as the same as the answers from 2011?
Thank you for your time and help!

Kind regards,
Jennie
