Thank you for the reply.
For example, using the variable dm104 for experienced any emotional violence in the case of Namibia. The tabulation for the total is 1100. When we use the weight for men mv005, the total remains the same 1100. But when we use the domestic violence weight, the total reduces to 997.
If I use another country, for example Uganda. The total remains the same regardless of whether the weight is applied or not, unlike in Namibia where the total changes when the domestic violence weight is applied. Using the same dm104 variable in the case of Uganda, when tabulated, the total is 2858, when either the weight for men or the domestic violence is used, the total remains the same at 2858. I have experimented this on other countries, like Burundi, Cameroon, Kenya, Mozambique, Rwanda and Sierra Leone, and the total remains the same regardless of whether no weight, the men's weight or the domestic violence weight is used. But for Namibia, the total changes when a tabulation is done and the domestic violence weight is used. This has only been done for the males. Thus, I was wondering what was causing the inconsistency for Namibia or if I missed something.
The Stata output tables are shown below, for dm104 first for Namibia then Uganda
