Hello

Sorry to bother you again, but I was wondering in DHS how are couples datasets created - by merging men's dataset to women's or the other way around? I found on the website that "DHS, men's questionnaires are only applied to a sub-sample of households. This means that not all currently married women have a match with a men's questionnaire. In this case, the base file should be the men's questionnaire and the resulting file (unit of analysis) will be the Couples file", however I also noticed that there is a variable on whether a household was selected for male survey in the household dataset so I was wondering...
