Description

MQUSEOTH indicates whether the household takes some "other" action to avoid mosquitoes. The meaning of "other" depends on the specific anti-mosquito actions enumerated in a given survey.

The information in MQUSEOTH is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.

Comparability

Apart from the contextual meaning of "other," MQUSEOTH is comparable across samples.
