Codes and Frequencies
Description
HCMPRIVFW (V762AN) indicates whether the woman reported a private fieldworker as a source for male condoms.
Some samples in the "HCM" 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 private fieldworkers that could be combined to create a more comprehensive response category. See Comparability for more information on the specific categories combined in HCMPRIVFW.

Comparability
Along with universe differences, HCMPRIVFW (V762AN) has some variation in question wording that broadly applies to the "source for male condom" series. For discussion of question wording in this variable series, see the comparability section of HCMDK.
Along with universe differences, HCMPRIVFW varies slightly in question wording. Most commonly, this response is worded as "fieldworker" or "health worker" and is organized under the "Private Medical Sector" header in the survey. However, some countries diverge from this standard convention, and, in some cases, multiple categories were consolidated to form a single, more comprehensive response in HCMPRIVFW. Countries of particular interest are noted below.
Comparability - Standard DHS
HCMPRIVFW (V762AN) first appears in phase IV of the Standard DHS questionnaire. It is removed in phase VI of the standard DHS questionnaire and replaced with "Country-specific private medical sector."
Samples from Phase III are also included in this variable. For discussion of differences between phases in this variable series, see the Comparability - Standard DHS tab of HCMDK.
Comparability — Benin [top]
The Benin 2001 survey words this response category as "health agent." The 2006 survey words the response category as "health agent (non-governmental organization)." The 2011 survey words the response category as "fieldworker (NGO)."
Comparability — Cote d'Ivoire [top]
The Cote d'Ivoire 2011 survey words this response category as "health agent."
Comparability — Kenya [top]
In the 2014 Kenya survey, there are separate response categories for "community-based distributor" and "community health worker." Because HCMPRIVFW focuses on all private fieldworkers, these responses are consolidated in this variable to form a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving these country-specific responses:
Comparability — Malawi [top]
The Malawi 2010 survey words this response category as "CBDA (community based distribution agent)/Door to door." The Malawi 2000 and 2004 surveys use the standard "fieldworker" wording.
Comparability — Nigeria [top]
The Nigeria 2003 survey words this response category as "community health worker." The 2008 and 2013 Nigerian surveys use the standard "fieldworker" wording.
Comparability — Zambia [top]
The Zambia 2001 survey words this response category as "community-based agent/health worker" and organizes it under the "other source" header.
The Zambia 2007 survey words this response category as "community-based agent" and organizes it under the "private medical sector" header.
