KIDCURAGE_ALL (B8_X)
Current age of child in years
Return to General maternal and infant health variables list

KIDCURAGE_ALL (B8_x) variables are 2-digit numeric variables.

Codes

99 = NIU (not in universe)

Description

KIDCURAGE_ALL (B8_x) reports the current age of the living child, in years, at the time of the survey.

KIDCURAGE_ALL consists of a set of twenty separate variables, covering the most recent birth (KIDCURAGE_01) up to the twentieth-most-recent birth (KIDCURAGE_20) for a female respondent of childbearing age. If KIDCURAGE_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.

Information for this variable was collected on all births for a woman, up to a maximum of twenty births. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to twenty births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 19 or 20 births). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 20 births and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then KIDCURAGE_20 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.

Comparability

Apart from universe differences, KIDCURAGE_ALL (B8_x) has no comparability problems.

Comparability - Standard DHS

KIDCURAGE_ALL (B8_x) is included in every phase of the standard DHS questionnaire.
