In countries with low contraceptive prevalence, KIDTOILTAGE (V117) reports, in general, the age at which children first start to use the same toilet facility as the adults in the household.
Apart from variation in question wording, KIDTOILTAGE (V117) is largely comparable across samples. Most commonly, this question was, "At what age do children in this household use the same toilet facility as adults?" or some slight variation.
Comparability - Standard DHS
KIDTOILTAGE (V117) is included in the model "B" questionnaire (given in low contraceptive prevalence countries) for Phase I only.
