Comparability

In addition to universe differences and slight differences in question wording, TBDIAGWHEN varies in the number of categories reported. To maximize comparability, IPUMS DHS uses composite coding with "Within the last year" having a first digit of "1" and "1 or more years ago" having a first digit of "2." The second digit provides further detail when this additional information is available.

Comparability - Standard DHS

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