Dear User, to use these variables V469E, V469F and V469X { at least one child born in the last two years and living with respondent }.
CSPro shows partial coding in the recode as follows:
{ times gave child tinned/powdered/fresh milk }
V469E = Q650DN;
{ times gave child infant formula }
V469F = Q650EN;
{ times gave child yogurt }
V469X = Q650GN;
Take a look at the woman's questionnaire and look at the skips to determine where you would encounter data which is not applicable. Missing data (different from Not Applicable) is identified as:
Quote:
9999, 999, 99, 9 This question should have been answered by the respondent, but the questionnaire
contained no information for this variable (missing data). This code is mainly used
in paper based surveys.
Take a look at your frequencies to help you in your analysis. Also take a look at The Guide to DHS Statistics
Please look at pages 127-128 for additional information on how missings are taken into account.
