Description

CABLETV indicates whether the household had cable TV access, generally phrased as "Does your household have a subscription to CANAL?" CANAL is an international subscription TV service with multiple TV and radio stations in French; CANAL+ includes channels in additional languages, such as English.

The related variable TV5 indicates whether the household had "a TV5 antenna," which delivers live satellite television.

Comparability

Apart from universe differences, CABLETV is comparable across samples.

The information in CABLETV is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").

Comparability - Standard DHS

CABLETV is a country-specific variable not included in the standard DHS household questionnaire.
