Description
For women whose most recent husband/partner had ever attended school, HUSEDYR (V702) reports the number of years of schooling completed by their husband/partner at the educational level (primary, secondary, or higher) reported in HUSEDLVL (V701).
For the husband's total years of education, see HUSEDYRS (V715).

Comparability
Along with universe differences, HUSEDYR (V702) has significant variation in question wording aligning with each country's education system. As this variable reports the number of years of schooling at the level achieved, "4 years" does not mean 4 years total, but rather 4 years at whatever level of education the husband achieved. Thus, a value of 4 in HUSEDYR could indicate 4 years of primary school, a high school degree, or a bachelor's degree, for example. Given this contextual meaning, users should be especially attentive to the Survey Text tab for exact question wording and surrounding questions.
The alternative variable of HUSEDYRS (V715), covering total years of education (summed across all levels of schooling) will be more useful to most researchers.
Comparability - Standard DHS
HUSEDYR (V702) is included across all phases of the standard DHS questionnaire. The question wording changes depending on the structure of each country's education system.
Comparability — South Africa [top]
Unlike most other surveys, the 2016 South Africa survey does not limit marriage or cohabitation to a relationship between a man and a woman; the 2016 South Africa questionnaire asks about the woman's "spouse/partner."
Comparability — Yemen [top]
The 2013 Yemen sample is not included in HUSEDYR, because the response categories for highest level of education could not be divided into primary, secondary, and higher. See HUSEDYRYE for the country-specific variable reporting the respondent's highest level of schooling at the level of schooling indicated in HUSEDLVLYE.
