Explore how IPUMS created this variable
Most IPUMS data transformations are performed using variable harmonization tables that specify how each value in the source data is recoded. Some variables also require programming logic in addition to the harmonization table. The harmonization documents for this variable are:
- Harmonization table
- Supplemental programming
- Instructions for interpreting harmonization documents

Comparability — General
CHDEADYR does not pose any comparability issues aside from differences in the universe.
Comparability — Kenya [top]
The census specified that if the last birth occurrence was a multiple birth, and if one of those children had died, this child was to be used as the basis for answering the question, even if the child was not actually the last born. If the last birth occurrence was a multiple birth, and if more than one of those children had died, the last born child was to be used to answer the question.
In 1989, the universe for this variable was females age 12+ who ever gave birth. In 2019, the universe for this variable was females age 12+ who gave birth within the last 5 years.
