Comparability
Along with universe differences, the response categories for FPSRCINCON vary across samples.
The harmonized coding categories in the IPUMS-DHS variable FPSRCINCON were constructed to reflect the major and minor categories in the original DHS variable (V306_05). The major categories are:
- 0: No source
- 100: Public sector facilities
- 200: Private medical sector facilities
- 300: Unspecified medical sector facilities
- 400: Other
The second and third digits of FPSRCINCON's codes distinguish between specific locations and provide detail present in only some samples.
