Description

For women who had symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection in the past 12 months, STIADEG14 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported seeking advice or treatment from a church health unit for this problem. This response category is country-specific to Egypt.

Some samples in the "STIAD" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

STIADEG14 is combined with STIADEG13 (mosque health unit) in STIADPRIVMIS (all faith-based health facilities) for the 2005 and 2014 Egypt samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using STIADEG14 are encouraged to review STIADPRIVMIS for a more comprehensive response category.

Comparability

STIADEG14 has no comparability problems.

Comparability - Standard DHS

An open-ended question about where the woman received advice/treatment for an STI is included in Phases III, V and VI forward of the standard DHS questionnaire.

Though STIADEG14 is a country-specific response not included in the standard DHS modules, it is combined with other responses in STIADPRIVMIS, a standard variable that encompasses all faith-based health facilities as sources for STI advice/treatment. IPUMS-DHS users are encouraged to review the Description tab of STIADEG14 or the Comparability tab of STIADPRIVMIS for more information on the specific categories combined for the Egypt samples.
