Description

ATBJ10 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a private hospital/clinic as a source for testing for the AIDS virus. This response category is country-specific to Benin.

Some samples in the "AT" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

ATBJ10 is combined with ATBJ11 (private doctor) in ATPRIVHOS(private hospital, clinic, or doctor) for the 2001, 2006, and 2011 Benin samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ATBJ10 are encouraged to review ATPRIVHOS for a more comprehensive response category.

Comparability

Apart from slight universe differences, ATBJ10 has no comparability problems.

Comparability - Standard DHS

An open-ended question about where one can get tested for the AIDS virus is included in Phase V forward of the standard DHS questionnaire.

Though ATBJ10 is a country-specific response not included in the standard DHS modules, it is combined with other responses in ATPRIVHOS, a standard variable that encompasses private hospitals, clinics, and doctors as potential sources for an AIDS test. IPUMS-DHS users are encouraged to review the Description tab of ATBJ10 or the Comparability tab of ATPRIVHOS for more information on the specific categories combined for the Benin samples.
