Comparability

In addition to slight variation in question wording, the universes for this variable vary across samples and phases (as described below).

Comparability - Standard DHS

WKEARNCASH (V720) is included in the standard DHS questionnaire for Phases II and III. In Phase II, only women who were currently working at the time of the interview were included. In Phase III, women who were currently working at the time of the interview and women who worked at any time in the 12 months before the interview were included.

Additionally, in Phase II for countries with high contraceptive prevalence (model "A" questionnaires), all self-employed women were assumed to be paid cash.

In Phase IV, the variable WKEARNTYPE (V741) replaces WKEARNCASH.
