Reproducibility Dataset for Heat-Related Mobility Capability Gaps despite Similar Transport Walking among Women and Men in Najaf, Iraq
Description
This repository contains the de-identified analytical dataset and reproducibility materials supporting the study “Heat-Related Mobility Capability Gaps despite Similar Transport Walking among Women and Men in Najaf, Iraq.” The study includes 800 adults surveyed across 20 urban neighborhoods in Najaf, Iraq, during June 2026. The deposited materials include the de-identified analytical dataset, codebook, variable definitions and coding rules, reproducibility documentation, analysis scripts, and verification outputs. Direct identifiers, free-text location information, exact survey dates and times, and other potentially identifying fields have been removed. The materials support reproduction of the principal descriptive statistics, gender comparisons, heat-related necessary-trip suppression models, walking analyses, scale diagnostics, sensitivity analyses, and well-being analysis reported in the associated manuscript.

Steps to reproduce
Download all repository files and place them in the same working directory. Use analytic_data_deidentified.csv as the primary analysis dataset and codebook.csv for variable definitions and coding. Install Python 3.10 or later and the required packages listed in requirements.txt, if provided. Run analysis.py. The script reproduces the main descriptive statistics, weekly transport-walking measures, heat-related necessary-trip suppression outcome, gender comparisons, primary and sensitivity regression models, and the WHO-5 analysis. Compare the generated estimates with analysis_results.csv, which contains the expected principal results. Participants reporting zero transport-walking days are coded as 0 min/week. Heat-related necessary-trip suppression is defined as agreement or strong agreement (responses 4–5) that heat caused cancellation or postponement of a necessary trip. The released data are de-identified; direct identifiers, free-text location information, exact survey dates and times, and other potentially identifying fields were removed before deposition. See DEIDENTIFICATION.md for details.
