Description

HEALTH reports the woman's assessment of her own general health.

Users should note that, in samples with a longitudinal component, some non-respondents to the female questionnaire had valid responses in this variable due to imputed answers if they had been interviewed in a previous longitudinal panel survey phase. These cases will only appear in the data extract if the case selection is "Female Respondents and Non-respondents" or "All Cases". The default case selection for PMA is Female respondents only.

This question associated with this variable was included in the female questionnaire.

Comparability

In Ghana 2017, "Moderate" was not an available response category, but there was a category response for "Excellent", unlike other samples. See the Questionnaire text tab for details.
