Hi!

I am trying to find average height of the INDIAN kids in the age of 0-2-year-olds in both NFHS 1 AND NFHS 2. In order to do this, i am using following (hv005 in NFHS1 and v005 in NFHS2) as the weight. It would be great if you could guide me on this. I am pasting my stata code also.

In NFHS 1 (1992-93)

sum height if v024 ==13 & b8 >=0 & b8 <= 2 & b4==2 [iw= hv005/1000000 ]

sum height if v024 ==6 & b8 >=0 & b8 <= 2 & b4==2 [iw= hv005/1000000 ]

In NFHS 2 (1998-99)

sum height if v024 ==13 & b8 >=0 & b8 <= 2 & b4==2 [iw= v005/1000000 ]

sum height if v024 ==6 & b8 >=0 & b8 <= 2 & b4==2 [iw= v005/1000000 ]
