Thank you so much for your reply.

My dependent variable is a binary measure of IPV. It is at the household level.

All my covariates are also at the household level except one. Let us call that covariate X. Covariate X is calculated as follows:
I take the PSU level average of column A. Then at the household level, I take a ratio of column A to the PSU level average of column A. For example - if column A is the number of children in a household, then covariate X will tell me if a household has more than the average number of children per household in the respective PSU.

So I was confused if I should use hv005 or d005. I feel like I should convert the weights to a cluster level. Please let me know your suggestions on this. I am very grateful for your help.
