Comparability
Apart from slight universe differences, HUSAGE (V730) is largely comparable across samples. Most commonly, this question was worded as "How old was your husband/partner at his last birthday?" In some cases, it was worded as "How old is your husband currently?" or some slight variation.
In most cases, women who were currently married or in a union were included in this universe. However, in some cases, as noted below, there were exceptions to this standard.
Comparability - Standard DHS
HUSAGE (V730) is included in the standard DHS questionnaire for Phase III forward.
Comparability — Egypt [top]
The 2000, 2003, 2005, 2008, and 2014 Egyptian samples included all women who have ever been married, even if they were not married at the time of the interview. The 1995 Egypt survey included women who had ever been married but were not currently widowed.
Comparability — South Africa [top]
Unlike most other surveys, the 2016 South Africa survey does not limit marriage or cohabitation to a relationship between a man and a woman; the 2016 South Africa questionnaire asks about the woman's "spouse/partner."
