Dear Sir/Madam,
I am using Stata for the analysis of DHS data. I have some difficulties in data management. I would like to ask some questions.
1. To investigate factors associated with child disciplinary practices, i would like to add some variables in the PR file . "age of primary caregiver", "Sex of primary caregiver", "education level of primary caregiver". I tried to change to wide form but failed. Could you instruct me and give me your expert opinion, please?

2. "occupation of primary caregiver"/ "occupation of the mother" and "occupation of the father", "Employment of primary caregiver"/ "Employment of the mother" and "Employment of the father". Could you give me your expert opinion to focus on primary caregiver or (mother and father)? Which is more appropriate to focus according to structure of the data sets? I think i need to combine IR file and MR file with PR file (main file). Could you give me your expert opinion and instructions to combine data sets?

3. I would like to add the variable " presence of domestic violence towards any women in the family of the child" / " presence of domestic violence towards mother of the child". Which one is more appropriate to use? Could you give me your expert opinion, please? To add this variable, i think i need to combine IR file to PR file. Could you instruct me please how to combine?

With Deep Respect
Nyan Linn.
