Description

Definition
FPKNODIAMN (MV304_04) indicates whether the man knows about the diaphragm as a method for family planning. Some samples differentiate between spontaneous and probed affirmative responses; see Comparability. In probing questions, a diaphragm is often described by the following text:

Women can place a thin flexible disk in their vagina before intercourse.


The related variable FPKNODIAFJMN indicates whether the man knows about the diaphragm, foam, or jelly as family planning methods. To maximize comparability, users of FPKNODIAFJMN may wish to combine responses to FPKNODIAMN and FPKNOFJMN (MV304_15).
