Dear Tom,

Thanks for your reply and classification. I have nearly 25% of households which have two eligible women completed the question on child birth weight. Hence, I was thinking of using my multilevel model of using household as a grouping factor which shows 56% of ICC instead of cluster which had 7% of ICC.

Is this can be correct at the DHS survey? AS I could see many users only used cluster as the PSu for multilevel models.I would like to know you opinion on this.

Thank You in advance
