Dear DHS experts
I am a regular user of dhs forum as i am working on my thesis using dhs data sets. Now my question is i am working on 5 dependent variables like Antenatal care, Postnatal care and delivery by c/s family planning and immunization of child. For independent variables profession, husband education, ethnicity and decision making i already deleted all missing values although my sample size is reduced but not as much. I am confused should i also deleted all missing values from dependent variables they are about 150 in ANC 86 in PNC and 49 in CS and about 500 in PNC?
what should i do?
i am using SAS.
Regards
dhs110
