I am using Nigeria DHS 2008; trying to combine variables to form an index for female autonomy using Multiple Joint Correspondence Analysis (mca), Burt Matrix approach following an article i read. However mca doesn't allow me to do this. I might be doing something wrong, but i don't know what it is exactly. I will be happy to provide further details if needed. Thank you

This is what i used

mca v743a v743b v743c v743d v743f (pweight=v005), meth(b)

I hope I didn't make a silly mistake, this is actually my 1st time using "mca" and I am still relatively new to the Stata Package.
