Comparability
Apart from universe differences and slight variation in question wording, STIPMED (V773C) is largely comparable across samples. However, while most surveys used a yes/no question format to collect this information, a minority asked an open-ended question ("What did you do?") and recorded all responses. Only samples with potential comparability issues are discussed below.

STIPMED is not a part of the standard DHS questionnaire.
