Hi Trevor,

I initially followed this post indications, Since I am doing some preliminary hiv research but I've got different results using R. These intervals are what I've got from running:

SAS (left) VS SPSS (right)
/index.php?t=getfile&id=1020&private=0

R Studio using
/index.php?t=getfile&id=1021&private=0

Notes:
1. It is exactly the same table I hva pre-processed in R and the exported as xlsx for 3rd party tools.
The line I use
DHSdesign <- svydesign(id = ~PSU, strata=~Strata, weights = ~hivweight, data=fLogitFiltered2)
V021 is used as PSU and V023 for the strata after checking the design survey

2. For SAS and SPSS I followed the recommendation from the official source of DHS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNg8HD_lKow
3. As you could see, SPSS and SAS give the same results totally different from R, unfortunately.

Any advice would be great, thanks in advance
Esteban
