8 For example: Macro International, a USAID contractor, archives over 200 DHS surveys for 75 countries - but only 7 of these for 4 countries (India 1992/1993, 1998/1999, 2005/2006; Jordan 2002; Pakistan 1990/1991, and Yemen 1991/1992, 1997) contain specific questions on parental sex preference for the next birth. The DHS surveys in question are available electronically at Measure DHS [43].
