Description

ATBJ5 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a community field agent as a source for testing for the AIDS virus. This response category is country-specific to Benin.

Though IPUMS-DHS integrates "public fieldworker" (see ATPUBFW) across samples, ATBJ5 is not included in the integrated variable because this response category is organized under a "Community Sector" header, while the responses in ATPUBHC are organized under a "Public Medical Sector" header.

Comparability

ATBJ5 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. ATBJ5 is a country-specific response not included in the standard DHS modules.
