Description
HUSB3INHOME indicates whether the female respondent's third husband lived with her after marriage. This variable combines both women who are currently married to their third husband and women who are not currently married to their third husband. For women who are currently married to their third husband, this variable indicates whether the woman's husband is currently living with her. For women who are not currently married to their third husband, this variable indicates whether the woman's husband always lived with her after marriage.
