Description
Definition
COOKFUEL (HV226) reports the type of fuel the woman's household used for cooking.
Response categories vary across surveys; see Comparability.
The information in COOKFUEL 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.
