Description
CHLHHELIGNO (CHL0) reports number of children in the household who were eligible for the child labor module.
The information in CHLHHELIGNO is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
