Codes and Frequencies
Description
WKEARNSMORE (V746) indicates whether the woman earns more money, less money, or about the same amount of money as her husband/partner.
Comparability
Apart from slight variation in question wording, WKEARNSMORE (V746) is largely comparable across samples. Most commonly, this variable records the woman's response to the question "Would you say that the money you earn is more than what your (husband/partner) earns, less than what he earns, or about the same?" or some slight variation.
Comparability - Standard DHS
WKEARNSMORE (V746) is included in the standard DHS questionnaire for Phase V forward.
