Comparability
Along with universe differences, HCFPRIVMOB (V762BM) has some contextual factors regarding question wording that should be noted by researchers. This survey context broadly applies to the "source for female condom" series. For discussion of this topic, see the comparability section of HCFDK.
The wording of responses in HCFPRIVMOB varies slightly across samples. Only samples that deviate in a potentially significant way are discussed below. This response category is consistently organized under the "private medical sector" header in the survey.
For most samples, the variable was a part of a question that asked the respondent to list all known sources for female condoms. Some countries, discussed below, recorded only the first response, which may impact comparability of those samples.
