Hi,

I am trying to map the variables in the DHS individual recode dataset to the women's questionnaire (NFHS 2005-06/DHS V for India). The recode manual which reflects the dataset variables (attached) and questionnaire (attached) have a different numbering system. Is there a codebook which provides a precise mapping? Some of the descriptions in the recode manual are not thorough enough to identify how they are developed from the questionnaire.

Specifically, I am wondering if someone can confirm the following:

1) v714, currently working, indicates if the respondent says yes to either 806, 807, or 808
2) v731, have worked in the past year, indicates if the respondent says yes to either 806, 807, 808, or 809
3) v741 comes directly from 816
4) v721 comes directly from 814

Thank you!
