Hi
Do you have any idea how to merge male dataset and female dataset to make a couple dataset. I could not understand the value in V034 and MV034$1, those are too different, where female dataset has value 1 is more common and male dataset has vale 2 more common and there are other different values, so how could we match the the couple based on these values. How do we know which is the couple (1 female and 1 male is couple or 1 female and 2 male is couple).
If you have any command in Stata or R or other software, please share it, my e-mail: dnbhatta@yahoo.com
