Description

HCMRW4 indicates whether the woman reported a private dispensary as a source for male condoms. This response category is country-specific to Rwanda.

Some samples in the "HCM" series include categories that can be consolidated into a single response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

HCMRW4 is combined with HCMRW3 (private pharmacy) in HCMPRIVDRUG (all private, formal drug sources) for the 2010 and 2014 Rwanda samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using HCMRW4 are encouraged to review HCMPRIVDRUG for a more comprehensive response category.

Comparability

HCMRW4 has no comparability problems.

Comparability - Standard DHS

An open-ended question on known sources for male condoms is included in the standard DHS questionnaire in Phases III forward.

Though HCMRW4 is a country-specific response, this variable is combined with other responses in HCMPRIVDRUG, a variable that encompasses all private, formal drug sources as sources of male condoms. IPUMS-DHS users are encouraged to review the Description tab of HCMRW4 or the Comparability tab of HCMPRIVDRUG for more information on the specific categories combined for Rwanda 2010 and 2014.
