MICS sibling history variable map for MICS4

A data frame mapping variable names used in the MICS4 maternal mortality module (mm.sav) to the standardized names used by this package.

Format

A data frame with columns orig.varname, new.varname, sibvar, description and comments.

Details

MICS4 and MICS5 share a roster numbering of MM5–MM13, which is different from the MM15–MM27 used from MICS6 onward. Neither MICS4 nor MICS5 asks about violence or accidents, so they support pregnancy-related, not strictly maternal, mortality – the same limitation as DHS phases 2–6.

Variable names are lowercase; see prep_mics_sib_histories and its lowercase argument.
