Description

For sample persons under 5 years old, SATSTAYEV reports if the child ever been pulled from a sitting position to a standing position and supported his or her own weight with legs stretched out.

Child motor and social development variables should be combined with AGE, BIRTHMO (Month of birth), and INTERVWMO (Month of NHIS interview) to provide complete information about the child's developmental progress. For more information on how the child's specific age is relevant to this variable, please see HEADTURNEV.
