Description

Definition
STOTHUSE indicates whether the household, or any member of the household, has ever received some other social transfer. The meaning of "other" must be interpreted relative to the specific categories included in a particular sample.

The information in STOTHUSE 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 (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
