Hello
i am using DHS of 5 countries for my research i am new to dhs, i have the following questions:
1. i am using maternal health indicator( delivery assistance) and background characteristics and wealth index for investigating the relationship.Kindly guide me which data set i have to use that has all the desired variables. i am using birth data set for delivery assistance it has also some variables related to age and education but i am not sure ...should i use the others files too? Should i need to merge the files..if so which one?
2. i made some tables with the help of SAS compiler that gives me totally different results in SPSS and SAS WHY?
3. For wealth index of the mother of delivered babies which variable for wealth index i have to choose?
thank you
