Description

ATPUBMOB (V784E) indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a public mobile clinic as a place to be tested for the AIDS virus.

IPUMS-DHS users should be careful to distinguish ATPUBMOB from ATPRIVMOB (private mobile clinic).

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

For example, a given sample might include multiple categories for different types of public health centers that could be combined in ATPUBMOB to create a more comprehensive response category. See Comparability for more information on the specific categories combined in this variable.

Comparability

Apart from universe differences and slight differences in response category wording, ATPUBMOB (V784E) is largely comparable across samples. This response category is listed under the "Public Sector" and is worded as "mobile clinic.

Most commonly, this variable included women who have heard of HIV/AIDS and have never been tested for HIV/AIDS. Other samples diverge from this standard, and in these cases, researchers may wish to exclude women who have not heard of HIV/AIDS (using AIDSHEARD) and who have been tested for HIV/AIDS (using AIDTESTEV).

In some cases, multiple categories were consolidated to form a single, more comprehensive response. Countries of particular interest are noted below.

Comparability - Standard DHS

ATPUBMOB (V784E) first appears in Phase V of the Standard DHS questionnaire. The category is removed from the standard questionnaire in Phase VI, but ATPUBMOB is still included by some Phase VI samples.

Comparability — Mali [top]

The 2018 Mali sample lists this response category as "Mobile HTC services."

Comparability — Namibia [top]

In the 2013 Namibia survey, under the "Public Sector" header, there are separate categories for "outreach point" and "mobile clinic." Because ATPUBMOB focuses on all public mobile clinics, these responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving these country-specific categories:

  • Outreach point is listed as ATNM3 in IPUMS-DHS
  • Mobile clinic is listed as ATNM4 in IPUMS-DHS

Comparability — Rwanda [top]

The 2010 and 2014 Rwanda surveys word this response category as "outreach." "Outreach" is typically recognized as a "mobile clinic," but the term sometimes captures "fieldworker" responses as well. In the case of the Rwanda surveys, "outreach" appears to be separate from "fieldworker," since the latter category is also listed in the survey text.

Comparability — South Africa [top]

The 2016 South Africa sample lists this response category as "Mobile/temporary HCT services."

Comparability — Uganda [top]

The Uganda 2006 and 2011 surveys word this response category as "outreach." "Outreach" is typically recognized as a "mobile clinic," but the term sometimes captures "fieldworker" responses as well. In the case of the 2006 and 2011 Uganda surveys, "outreach" appears to be separate from "fieldworker," since the latter category is also listed in the survey text.

Comparability — Zambia [top]

The 2018 Zambia sample lists this response category as "Mobile HTC services."
