Description
Definition
This variable indicates age at first marriage. Though this question was meant to be asked for females who are aged between 15 and 49, many females aged greater than 49 also responded to this question. However, since there are others who did not respond, the ones who responded could be a biased sample. In addition, the responses to when someone married when aged less than 10 years or greater than 49 years have been changed to unknown category.
