Dear All,

I am using women file for a sample of women who answered to domestic violence module. v191 measuring Wealth index factor score is one of my main variables. I have a few queries related to it:

1. It gives the factor score using the technique of Principal Component Analysis?

2. Shall I divide it by 100000 before using it in the main analysis?

3. Is it correct the same index factor score for a sample of women of who answered to domestic violence module or should I generate the new wealth index for the new subsample?

Your reply is eagerly awaited.

Thank you
