Description

ATNE4 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a public regional hospital as a source for testing for the AIDS virus. This response category is country-specific to Niger.

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.

ATNE4 is combined with ATNE3 (public national hospital) and ATNE5 (public district hospital) in ATPUBHOS (all public hospitals) for the 2012 Niger sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ATNE4 are encouraged to review ATPUBHOS for a more comprehensive response category.

Comparability

ATNE4 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 ATNE4 is a country-specific response not included in the standard DHS modules, it is combined with other responses in ATPUBHOS, a standard variable that encompasses all public hospitals as potential sources for an AIDS test. IPUMS-DHS users are encouraged to review the Description tab of ATNE4 or the Comparability tab of ATPUBHOS for more information on the specific categories combined for the Niger samples.
