Description

Definition
CHDWEIGHT is an 8-digit variable with 6 implied decimal places, which should be used as a weighting factor for the subset of children who were randomly selected for the child discipline module (as indicated by CHDLINENO). For further information about using weights with the DHS data, see HHWEIGHT (HV005).

Note: The 6 implied decimal places in CHDWEIGHT mean that the last six digits of the eight-digit variable are decimal digits, but there is no actual decimal in the data.
