Survey data
Available datasets
The following survey data are available for download from the Malawi Diffusion and Ideational Change Project:
i. Cross-sectional, individual-level data
• MDICP-1, Women
• MDICP-1, Men
• MDICP-2, Women
• MDICP-2, Men
ii. Cross-sectional, couple data
• MDICP-1, Husbands and wives
• MDICP-2, Husbands and wives
iii. Longitudinal, individual-level data
• MDICP-1 and MDICP-2, Women
• MDICP-1 and MDICP-2, Meniv. Longitudinal, couple-level data
• MDICP-1 and MDICP-2, Husband and wives* [2.5KB]
*Because of the large number of variables in this file, STATA/SE (not Intercooled) is required. Users who need to use the longitudinal couple-level data for a subset of variables can either create smaller files from the longitudinal individual-level data and then merge them, or can contact us.Helpful Documents
Users of the Malawi data should use the questionnaires as their dictionary since the variable names are directly equivalent to the questions' numbers.
Sampling methods for MDICP 1, MDICP 2, and MDICP 3.
Interviewer Training Documents for MDICP 1 and MDICP 2.
Access
The MDICP data are available to researchers unconditionally. However, in order to be able to communicate with the users about data-related issues that might arise in the future, we need to know who is using them. For this reason, we request that the users fill out a registration form prior to downloading the files.
Because of the widespread concern about Internet privacy, we wish to stress the complete confidentiality of the Social Networks website. The information we gather will not be used for any commercial purposes.
New users: To register, click hereNote about public use
In order to make the data suitable for public use all names of individuals and villages have been removed from the data (for both respondents and their named network partners in the social networks component of the questionnaire). Users who would like to have access to these names in order to conduct follow-up research on any of our samples (which we encourage), and users interested in special data configurations, should contact us.
Download
Users can download any of the data in STATA format (we recommend Stat/Transfer to change the format to SAS, SPSS or some other statistical platform). To download, simply double-click on the file(s) above of your choice and, when prompted, enter the username and password that you have previously selected when registering.
Note that to save space and reduce transfer time all files are compressed. To uncompress the files use either the free software Winzip or a DOS/UNIX-based utility, such as pkzip.If you have any problem downloading the data, please contact us.
