I am currently working on the 1998, 2003, and 2008 Philippines DHS datasets in Stata. I am hoping to analyze the data for trends over the 3 different years, and would like to merge the datasets across years. Each year appears to have different PSUs, but consistently stratified by the 17 regions in the Philippines. In order to merge the datasets, is there a method to handle the different sampling and strata across the different years of the survey?
Thank you very much in advance for your assistance.
