Dear DHS Experts
Thank you very much for your help.I am working on Pakistan data set (ir) 1990 and 2006 on cesarean section rates. I am working with SAS.I weighted the sample as recommended by dhs.Problem is that the cesarean section rate(weighted) I calculated are totally different from the rates calculated by stat compiler like for Pakistan 2006 I calculated the total cesarean section (for births 5 years preceding the survey)as 8.5 whereas stat compiler shows 7.3(five years preceding the survey) I am confused why is it so? Kindly answer me. Thanks in advance.
