Comparability
DVPSEXEVER (D108) is constructed based on responses to DVPSEX (D105H) and DVPSEXOTH (D105I). Most samples contain both of those constituent variables, but some either contain only DVPSEX or add DVPSEXCOERC in addition to the other two constituent variables. The absence of DVPSEXOTH may result in more "No" responses to DVPSEXEVER than would otherwise have occurred if that variable had been consistently included.
Only those countries with comparability issues for this variable are discussed below.
Comparability - Standard DHS
DVPSEXEVER (D108) is not included in any phase of the standard DHS questionnaire, but it is based on a question included in the standard domestic violence module for Phases IV through VIII.
In Phases IV and V, DVPSEXEVER is constructed based on responses to DVPSEX (D105H) and DVPSEXOTH (D105I). In Phases IV and V, DVPSEXOTH includes both physical and verbal forced sex acts.
In Phases VI and VII, DVPSEXEVER is constructed based on responses to DVPSEX (D105H), DVPSEXOTH (D105I), and DVPSEXCOERC. In Phases VI, VII, and VIII physical and verbal forced sex acts are separated into two variables (DVPSEXOTH and DVPSEXCOERC, respectively); this does not pose any comparability problems for DVPSEXEVER.
Comparability — Egypt [top]
The Egypt 2005 sample does not include DVPSEXOTH. Therefore, the responses to DVPSEXEVER are identical to the responses to DVPSEX for that sample.
Comparability — Jordan [top]
The 2007, 2012, and 2017 Jordan samples do not include DVPSEXOTH (or DVPSEXCOERC). Therefore, the responses to DVPSEXEVER are identical to the responses to DVPSEX for these samples.
Comparability — South Africa [top]
The 2016 South Africa survey asks about the respondent's current or most recent spouse, live-in partner, or boyfriend.
