Hello Liz,

I am trying to construct Wealth Index for Egypt using STATA.
I refered to the manuals (attached here) in regard of how to calculate wealth index, however all using SPSS syntax, So I am a bit struggling

Have you done the coding using STATA?
Could you tell me how to score the PCA components based on the regression method?

What weight should do with the index? How can I use weight after constructing the index and divide the quintiles?

Your reply is highly appreciated

Thanks in advance
