Description

Definition

For household members under age 5 or 6, MLKIDAGEMO (HML16A) reports the child's age in months at the time of the interview. The DHS standard recode manuals report that the child's age in months is calculated from the century month code of the date of interview minus the century month code of the date of birth of the child.
