Description
CDPLAYWHO reports who, if anyone, played with the female respondent's youngest surviving and co-resident child age 3-4 in the past 3 days.
Most surveys asking child development questions included separate dichotomous variables about whether the child's mother (CDPLAYMA), father (CDPLAYPA), other person (CDPLAYOTH), or no one (CDPLAYNONE) named, counted, or drew things with the child. In CDPLAYWHO, all of this information is included in a single variable.
Comparability
Apart from universe differences, CDPLAYWHO has no comparability problems.
Comparability - Standard DHS
CDPLAYWHO is a country-specific variable, and it is not included in any phase of the standard DHS questionnaire.
