Wealth quintile for Sub-sample [message #27947]

Dear all,
We are running regression analysis of health insurance. As a sensitivity check, we are considering random sub-samples (40, 60, 80 percent) from the full sample. Since the wealth quintiles are relative to the population, is it necessary that we redefine the wealth quintiles for every sub-sample we draw? Similarly, is it recommended that we do the same for sub-population analysis such as by caste, residence? Moreover, can we use wealth index(rural/urban) instead of combined wealth index?
Looking forward to your suggestions.

Thank you
Regards
Rupon
