Description
Definition
SALTIODIZE (HV222) reports the type of salt the household uses for cooking, with an emphasis on whether the salt is known to be iodized. Iodized salt may prevent iodine deficiency, and thus protect against brain damage during child development and pregnancy.
The information in SALTIODIZE is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
