Description

Definition

AGEIND (HML16) reports the household member's age as reported in the individual questionnaire (for women of childbearing age) or the men's questionnaire.

Reporting of one's own age or one's young children's ages is presumably more accurate than the age reporting for all household members done by the respondent for the household survey (whose results are given in HHAGE (HV105)).
