Description

Definition
MAFEDNUTS24H indicates whether the child's mother gave her youngest surviving child nuts during the previous day, either at night or during the daytime. This variable describes a characteristic of the mother rather than the child.

Although the question wording asks about foods given to a specific child during the previous day, responses relate to the mother, so all young children of the mother are coded the same way. If the mother reported she gave her youngest surviving child nuts in the previous day, all of her young children in the data are coded as "yes," including any children who have died or who live elsewhere.

A positive response in MAFEDNUTS24H thus does not necessarily indicate whether a particular child of the mother ate nuts during the previous day. IPUMS-DHS users should instead employ the variable FEDNUTS24H to determine whether the child ate nuts during the previous day. See Comparability.

The related variable MAFEDNUTS24HX reports the number of times the child's mother gave her youngest surviving child nuts during the previous 24 hours. MAFEDNUTSWKD reports the number of days the child's mother gave her youngest surviving child nuts during the past week.

The related variable MAFEDLEGUM24H (V414O) indicates whether the child's mother gave her youngest surviving child any food made from legumes (e.g., lentils, beans, soybeans, pulses, or peanuts) during the previous day, either at night or during the daytime.
