Comparability
Apart from universe differences, CDREADNONE is largely comparable across most samples. However, for a subset of samples noted in country-specific comparability, question wording was different.
Comparability - Standard DHS
CDREADNONE is a country-specific variable, and it is not included in any phase of the standard DHS questionnaire.
Comparability — Senegal [top]
The 2010, 2012, 2014, 2015, and 2016 Senegal surveys first ask, "Who most frequently facilitates (NAME)'s learning activities?" This is followed by the open-ended question, "What are these learning activities?" A response of "yes, no one" in CDREADNONE indicates the respondent did not report reading books as a learning activity.
Comparability — Togo [top]
The 2013 Togo survey asked whether anyone read books to the child. A response of "no" to that question was recoded as "1--Yes, no one (read to child)" for CDREADNONE.
