Description

ATBI1 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a public national reference hospital as a source for testing for the AIDS virus. This response category is country-specific to Burundi.

Some samples in the "AT" 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.

ATBI1 is combined with ATBI2 (public regional reference hospital) and ATBI3 (public district hospital) in ATPUBHOS (all public hospitals) for the 2016 Burundi sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ATBI1 are encouraged to review ATPUBHOS for a more comprehensive response category.

Comparability

ATBI1 has no comparability problems.

Comparability - Standard DHS

An open-ended question about where one can get tested for the AIDS virus is included in Phase V forward of the standard DHS questionnaire.

Although ATBI1 is a country-specific response not included in the standard DHS modules, it is combined with other responses in ATPUBHOS, a standard variable that encompasses all public hospitals as potential sources for an AIDS test. IPUMS-DHS users are encouraged to review the Description tab of ATBI1 or the Comparability tab of ATPUBHOS for more information on the specific categories combined for the Burundi samples.
