Hello,
I noted that in the neonate questionnaire, ODK does not seem to be following the skip from Id10077 as described in the Q by Q guide. Instead, it is going to the next question, Id10408…
The Q by Q guide says:
Id10077: Did (s)he suffer from any injury or accident that led to her/his death?
This is an opening question to check whether the death was associated with any injury or accident. If the response is “YES”, proceed with the following questions. These questions are generally straightforward and readily understood, with little potential for error in the response, except in the case of stigma or apprehension of involvement with police or other administration.
If the answer is "NO", then skip to Id10351. However, if the answer is "DK/Ref", the interviewer should probe further and continue with the subsequent questions.
I suspect this has to do with the “and” in the relevance coding for 10351, where 10098 would not be asked if 10077 is No:
(selected(${Id10114}, 'no') or ${Id10114} = 'NaN' or string-length(${Id10114}) = 0) and selected(${isNeonatal}, '1') and selected(${Id10098}, 'yes') and not(selected(${Id10099}, 'yes'))

Can you please review?
