Description
CHSURVM indicates the number of male children ever born to a woman still living at the time of the census.
Comparability — Index
Comparability — General
CHSURVM is fully comparable across samples, apart from differing universes. For the number of female children surviving, see CHSURVF; or for all children, CHBORN.
Most samples are implicitly, if not explicitly, top-coded at 9 to 11 children. All samples are top-coded at 20 children.
Comparability — Benin [top]
The data are top-coded at 9+ children in 1992, 10+ children in 2002, and 11+ children in 2013.
Comparability — Botswana [top]
In both the 2001 and 2011 samples, CHSURVM is constructed from unharmonized source variables indicating the number of male children living with the mother and the number of male children living away from home.
Comparability — Burkina Faso [top]
The universe changes over time with respect to age and resident status. In the 1996 sample, the question is asked of female household residents age 12 and older. In the 2006 sample, the question is asked of females age 10 and older.
Comparability — Cambodia [top]
The 2004 and 2013 data have a top-code at 8+ children.
Comparability — Côte d'Ivoire [top]
The 1998 sample is top-coded at 8+.
Comparability — Dominican Republic [top]
The universe varies across samples. The universe for the 1981 sample is women age 12 or older who had a female child born alive. The 2002 question was asked to women age 15 or older. The 2010 question was asked to women age 15 or older who ever gave birth.
Comparability — Ethiopia [top]
In all samples the number of children is calculated from multiple input variables. Only long-form respondent women (20%) were asked the question in 2007.
Comparability — Guatemala [top]
The universe differs across samples. The 2002 data have a top-code at 10+ children.
Comparability — Guinea [top]
The 1996 and 2014 samples are top-coded at 10+ male children.
Comparability — Honduras [top]
The data are top-coded at 10+ children.
Comparability — Indonesia [top]
The universe differs across samples. The 1990 and 1995 restrict the universe to ever-married women age 10 or older. The 1995 sample further limits the universe to women younger than 55. The 2010 sample, instead, asked the question to women age 10 or older -- regardless of marital status.
Comparability — Iran [top]
The census question was asked only of ever-married women.
Comparability — Iraq [top]
The census question was asked only of ever-married women.
Comparability — Laos [top]
Data are calculated from two separate source variables: the number of male children at home and number of male children living outside the home. The data have different top-codes across samples: 5+ children in 1995 and 2005, 6+ children in 2015.
Comparability — Lesotho [top]
The integrated variable in 1996 is constructed from male children living in the household and away from home. The data are top-coded at 7+ children.
Comparability — Malawi [top]
The universe statement varies marginally across samples.
Comparability — Mali [top]
The universe changes from the 1987 and 1998 samples, women age 12 and older who ever gave birth to women age 12 to 49 with live births.
Comparability — Mozambique [top]
The universes changes between samples: from female residents between 12 and 50 years old in 1997 to female residents 12 or older in the 2007 sample.
Comparability — Nepal [top]
The census question was asked only of ever-married women age 15 to 49. The 2001 and 2011 data have a top-code at 10+ and 5+ children, respectively.
Data are calculated from two separate variables: the number of female children living in the household and number of female children living separately. Each of those variables has a top code affecting a small number of cases.
Comparability — Pakistan [top]
The census question was asked only of ever-married women.
Comparability — Papua New Guinea [top]
The integrated variable in 1980 and 2000 is constructed from male children living in the household and away from home. The 1980 sample is top-coded at 5+ children; 2000 is top-coded at 7+.
Comparability — Rwanda [top]
The 2012 sample is top-coded at 10+ children.
Comparability — Senegal [top]
The 2013 sample is top coded at 10+ male children.
Comparability — Sierra Leone [top]
The integrated variable for 2004 is constructed from the number of children in the household and number of female children living elsewhere. In the 2015 sample, the question was asked of females ages 10+ who ever gave birth. The data is top-coded at 12+ children for the 2004 sample and 10+ children for the 2015 sample.
Comparability — South Africa [top]
The 2016 sample is top-coded at 8+ male children.
Comparability — Sudan [top]
The question was asked only of ever-married females age 12 to 54.
Comparability — Suriname [top]
The 2004 sample is top-coded at 7+ male children.
Comparability — Togo [top]
The universe differs across samples. An age universe of 10+ was imposed on the 1960 data; the source variable is unaltered and applies to all females.
The 2010 data have a top-code at 10+ children.
Comparability — Uganda [top]
The 2014 sample is top-coded at 11+ male children.
Comparability — Vietnam [top]
The 2019 data are constructed from separate responses for number of male children living outside the household and those living in the household. Data are top-coded at 5+ children.
Comparability — Zambia [top]
The universe differs across samples. The 1990 sample universe is all women age 12 or older. The 2000 sample includes only women who ever gave birth. The 2010 sample includes only present women who ever gave birth. The 1990 and 2000 enumeration instructions indicate that this question should have been asked only of present household members and visitors, but the number of surviving children is reported for almost all absent household members; they are included in the universe.
Comparability — Zimbabwe [top]
The integrated variable in 2012 is constructed from male children living in the household and away from home. The data are top-coded at 6+ children.
