Dear DHS User Forum,
Dataset: National Family Health Survey (IAIR7ADT, IAKR7ADT, and IAPR7ADT)
Year: 2019-21
Country: India
For my research objective, I want to identify pairs of siblings (all siblings in one household), mother-child pairs (including all possible children a mother has), father-child pairs (including all possible children a father has), mother-father pairs, and parent-child pairs (including all possible children parent have). Thus, I need information on mothers, fathers, and all their kids in one row.
I have been using the women's file, as it already has all kids a mother has in one row. Thus, only information from men remains to be merged. However, the men's file did not include information on height and weight. So, I merged the person's file and the men's file.
Now I am trying to merge the (men's+person's) file to the women's file. However, I am unable to do so. Although there is an already existing couple's file available in the dataset, it does not contain any information that I need. As one man can have more than one wife, I am using m:1 merging. I have attached the codes that I have been using.
I have already searched the existing queries posted in the DHS User Forum. However, none of them addresses the issue I have. I would request you to please have a look at my query and please suggest a way out. If you need any additional information on the issue, please write back.
Regards,
Parul
