R DHS aggregation by Indigenous Identity in Guatemala
https://userforum.dhsprogram.com/index.phpindex.php?t=rview&goto=24063&th=11533#msg_24063
I am trying to use DHS data in R to create health data that is broken down by tribal group in Guatemala. I have identified variable SETID (self identification), s114 (language learned to speak) or s117(languages spoken at home) as relevant for identifying indigenous identity, however I am not sure how to construct such a conplex variable in R. There are 25 indigenous groups identified in the data.
Thanks]]>hmwoods022022-02-15T19:52:50-00:00Re: R DHS aggregation by Indigenous Identity in Guatemala

You can try the following function to group the variables into one variable (tribalg).
