Hello,
I am working on household characteristics and child survival in Sub-Sahara Africa. I'm using dat sets from Nigeria, Kenya, Congo and Lesotho. I want to make it a multilevel analysis, pls how do I go about the multilevel codes in stata. I need the codes typed here. Thanks

I don't think anyone will be able to provide you with codes without much more information. Also, I think writing out full code for you is probably beyond the usual scope of help on this forum.

That said, I can start by pointing you to the write documentation.

Here is an introduction to multi-level modeling in Stata: http://blog.stata.com/2013/02/04/multilevel-linear-models-in -stata-part-1-components-of-variance/

Here is the documentation for "xtmixed", which is probably the command you want: http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?xtmixed

I'm happy to help along the way if I can (it isn't a command I use a lot, but...), and surely some DHS staff might have some pointers too along the way, but I don't think anyone here can just write the code for you
