Comparability

MLMSGTVRADIONETAD is largely comparable across samples. See below for more information.

For some samples, noted below, the survey included information specifying whether the message was heard on the radio, on television, or both. To accommodate this variation, IPUMS DHS uses composite coding. All "yes" responses share a first digit code of "1"; the second digit distinguishes between whether the message was heard on television (coded "11"), on the radio (coded "12"), or on both television and radio (coded "13").

Comparability - Standard DHS

MLMSGTVRADIONETAD is a country-specific variable, and it is not included in any phase of the standard DHS questionnaire.
