Description

Definition
HCMPRIVFW (V762AN) indicates whether the woman reported a private fieldworker as a source for male condoms.

Some samples in the "HCM" series include categories that can be consolidated into a single response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

For example, a given sample might include multiple categories for different types of private fieldworkers that could be combined to create a more comprehensive response category. See Comparability for more information on the specific categories combined in HCMPRIVFW.
