Description

HCFML1 indicates whether the woman reported a "shop" as a source for female condoms. This response category is country-specific to Mali.

Some samples in the "HCF" 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.

HCFML1 is combined with HCFML2 (kiosk) in HCFSHOP (all shops/retailers) for the Mali samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using HCFML1 are encouraged to review HCFSHOP for a more comprehensive response category.

Comparability

HCFML1 has no comparability problems.

Comparability - Standard DHS

An open-ended question on known sources for female condoms is included in the standard DHS questionnaire in Phases IV forward.

Though HCFML1 is a country-specific response, this variable is combined with other responses in HCFSHOP, a variable that encompasses all shops/retailers as sources of female condoms. IPUMS-DHS users are encouraged to review the Description tab of HCFML1 or the Comparability tab of HCFSHOP for more information on the specific categories combined for Mali 2012.
