I have been trying to obtain the percentages for the prevalence of stunting (State-wise). However, my estimates are not matching with the ones given in the final report for certain states (around 10 such states). For some states they are coming a little higher while for the others they are lower. However, the deviation is not more than 0.5% in any case. I have tried using both the files i.e., KR and PR and have also applied the respective weights. I want to use these estimates to study inter district disparities based on certain parameters. Therefore, i am more inclined towards using the estimates of KR files.
Can someone please explain why is this happening?
I have attached the SPSS code that i am using for your reference.
TIA.
/****First Dataset*****/
DATASET ACTIVATE DataSet1.
COMPUTE WGT = SHV005/1000000.
WEIGHT BY WGT.
DO IF ((HC70 <= 600) & (Hc70 >= -600)).
COUNT fw=HC70(Lowest thru -201).
VARIABLE LABELS fw '1'.
END IF.
EXECUTE.
SORT CASES BY HV024.
SPLIT FILE LAYERED BY HV024.
FREQUENCIES fw.
/****Second Dataset*****/
DATASET ACTIVATE DataSet3.
COMPUTE WGT = V005/1000000.
WEIGHT BY WGT.
DO IF ((HW70 <= 600) & (HW70 >= -600)).
COUNT FW1=HW70(Lowest thru -201).
VARIABLE LABELS FW1 '1'.
END IF.
EXECUTE
SORT CASES BY V024.
SPLIT FILE LAYERED BY V024.
FREQUENCIES FW1.
