Dear DHS,
I'm doing a sub analysis of the Nigeria 2013 data, successfully managed to reproduce household level estimates. I'm embarking on defacto member level estimates e.g. %defacto members that slept under an ITN the previous night.
From the datasets, i'm thinking the HR6 file is what i need to use. however i see it is reshaped wide, up to 35 members. I'm thinking of reshaping it long again and then do the analysis on all indicators whose denominator is defacto hh members
1. Is it the right approach, i'm i using the right dataset?
2. Will i use the same sample weights (hv005)when it is reshaped? i would imagine i need to take into consideration clustering of members in the household?

thanks
