Description
Definition
WTRSHORTFRQ reports how frequently the household experienced water shortage or unavailability in the last two weeks. The complementary variable WTRSHORTYN indicates whether the household experienced any water shortfall or unavailability in the past two weeks.
The information in WTRSHORTFRQ is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").
