Description

Definition
For women who had symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection in the past 12 months, STIADET1 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported seeking advice or treatment from a private hospital for this problem. This response category is country-specific to Ethiopia.

Some samples in the "STIAD" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

STIADET1 is combined with STIADET2 (private clinic) in STIADPRIVHOS (private hospital, clinic, or doctor) for the 2011 and 2016 Ethiopia samples.

IPUMS-DHS users interested in using STIADET1 are encouraged to review STIADPRIVHOS for a more comprehensive response category.
