Description

Definition
DVMODULE (V044) identifies female respondents who were selected to receive questions from the domestic violence module and, for those selected, indicates whether they were interviewed.

For samples including the module, one woman of childbearing age per household was randomly selected for the interview, using a table included in the questionnaire. Some women who were selected for the domestic violence interview refused to participate; others were excluded because the woman could not be interviewed privately.
