Description
Definition
For surviving children under age 5 who had diarrhea in the past 2 weeks, DIAFOODUPDN (H39) indicates whether the child was given more, less, or the same amount of food during the illness. Question wording differences limit the comparability of DIAFOODUPDN across samples; see Comparability.
