Return to General maternal and infant health variables list

LINENOKID_ALL (B16_x) variables are 2-digit numeric variables.

Codes

98 = Missing
99 = NIU (not in universe)

Description

LINENOKID_ALL (B16_x) reports the number of the line on which the DHS interviewer recorded the child's name, when filling out the household schedule. After asking the household survey respondent, "Please give me the names of the persons who usually live in your household or are staying with you now, starting with the head of the household," the interviewer recorded each name in turn on successively numbered lines printed on the household survey form.

LINENOKID_ALL consists of a set of twenty separate variables, covering the most recent birth (LINENOKID_01) up to the twentieth-most-recent birth (LINENOKID_20) for a female respondent of childbearing age. If LINENOKID_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 LINENOKID_20 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.

Comparability

Apart from universe differences, LINENOKID_ALL (B16_x) has no comparability problems.

Comparability - Standard DHS

LINENOKID_ALL (B16_x) is included and consistent as a standard variable in the DHS recode from Phase IV forward. Interviewers recorded all household members' names on numbered lines on the household form across all phases of the DHS.
