Description

FPPROBMSTS2 (V308_07) reports the woman's opinion about the main problem, if any, with using male sterilization as a family planning method. Interviewers collected the information through an open-ended question and then recorded the woman's response using country-specific codes.

IPUMS-DHS interested in using FPPROBMSTS2 may also be interested in FPPROBMSTS, which coded the woman's response using standard response categories.

Comparability

Along with changes in the universe and slight question wording differences, FPPROBMSTS2 (V308_07) varies across samples in the number and type of response categories.

To maximize comparability across samples, IPUMS-DHS uses composite coding and a 2-digit coding system. The first digit broadly distinguishes between different problems (e.g., others disapprove), and the second digit provides additional detail within these initial groupings (e.g., husband/partner disapproves versus community disapproves) .
