Comparability
Apart from universe differences, FPMEDIAOK (V366) has minor comparability issues.
For the majority of samples, women were asked whether family planning information is acceptable on the radio or television. In a minority of samples, the question is branched into two, asking whether family planning information is acceptable (1) on the radio, and (2) on the television. If women indicated that family planning information was acceptable on either the radio or television, they were coded into the "acceptable" response category for FPMEDIAOK (V366).
Only samples with additional comparability issues are noted below.
