University of the Philippines Diliman(UPD)

Good day! I would like to request raw files (excel, or any type that has raw data) of the YAFS study from the years 1982, 1994, 2002, and 2013. These will aid in the quantitative analysis of an undergraduate thesis focused on the rise of risky behaviors and perception of fertility in young adults in the Philippines. Undergraduate is collaborating with the Health Policy and Development Bureau of the Department of Health - Philippines.
