To Whom It May Concern:
I am conducting an analysis using the Tanzania SPA dataset where I am examining predictors of providers' giving HIV tests to pregnant women attending ANC sites. I will link the following datasets: provider (TZSR06PV), client (TZSR06AN) and CT (TZSR06CT). I expected that the TZSR06CT dataset would have a unique facility ID because there would be 1 observation at each facility. However, the variable v004 shows multiple observations at some facilities. Why there was more than 1 observation for each facility in this dataset?
To contrast this example, in a similar analysis I was able to combine the following three datasets for the Kenya SPA: provider (KESR10PV), client (KESR10AN) and the facility survey (KESR10FC). The facility survey dataset had only 1 observation at each facility, and I expected that the CT dataset for Tanzania would also contain 1 observation for each facility.
Any information that you can provide would be very helpful. Thank you.
Regards,
Catherine
