Description

Definition
For women who had symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection in the past 12 months, STIADET6 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported seeking advice or treatment from a non-governmental (NGO) stand-alone VCT center for this problem. This response category is country-specific to Ethiopia.

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

STIADET6 is combined with STIADET5 (NGO health facility) in STIADNGO (all NGO sources) for the 2005 Ethiopia sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using STIADET6 are encouraged to review STIADNGO for a more comprehensive response category.
