Survey Characteristics
  • Anthropometry
  • Arm circumference
  • GPS/georeferenced ‹Surveys with latitude and longitude coordinates for survey clusters. Note that cluster coordinates are randomly displaced to protect the privacy of respondents.
  • Husband's survey ‹Surveys that used a separate questionnaire for husband's of women respondents (rather than a men's questionnaire).
  • Maternal mortality ‹A set of questions asking about all siblings of the respondent (children born to the respondent's biological mother) concerning their sex, age, survival status, and whether the death was pregnancy-related. Questions are used to estimate maternal mortality, pregnancy-related mortality, and adult mortality. Typically asked of women only but in some surveys asked of men as well.
  • Men's survey ‹Surveys that include men in addition to women as individual respondents.
  • Paper survey ‹Interviews conducted with paper questionnaires which are later entered into a computer at a central office.
  • Service availability ‹A survey of communities and the services available in those communities, mostly used in earlier surveys up until about 2006. Not part of the household or individual questionnaires.
