Creating a pooled NFHS dataset [message #30230]

Hi,
I am trying to do a district level analysis for child undernourishment by pooling NFHS 4 and 5. Can I simply keep the variable list short and append the 'Kr" files for the two rounds. In doing so, I believe I'd need to create a unique district level id and create another "time variable' so as to get a pooled response with "time" variable denoting NFHS round 4 or 5.

Additionally, I needed to ask whether the same weights can be applied in this pooled dataset, to get the separate national level estimates for individual rounds of NFHS 4 and 5?

Awaiting your reply

Thanks
