Dear Tom,

Thank you for the detailed response. I have a couple of follow up questions:

1. When using the svy: commands, is clustering by psu and weighting enough, or does the data also require stratification? I saw a paper that used the dataset mention stratification due to the data collection design, but it did not discuss what it the strata should be. Could you please clarify?

2. If multiplying by the weight is incorrect in that situation, how would you then go about creating weighted community-level averages with the respondent's own value excluded?

3. If we were to merge in male data (probably on community level), how would that alter the weights?

Thank you!
