Dear User,

Regarding your question, I like to share what i have done so far.
When I tested log regression to investigate association between mother's education and under five mortality (uni-variate analysis), I used the following commands for instance;

** SAMPLE WEIGHTING **
generate wgt = v005/1000000
svyset [pw=wgt], psu(v021)strata(v023)
label variable wgt " sample weight"

*** RECODING INDEPENDENT VARIABLES ***

* Recode Mother Education *
recode v106 (3=0 "higher") (2=1 "secondary") (1=2 "primary") (0=3 "no education") (.=99 "missing"), generate (M_E)
label variable M_E "Mother Education Recode"

*** RECODING DEPENDENT VARIABLES**

* Under 5 mortality (0-4yrs)*
recode b7 (0/59=1 "U5 death") (else=0 "alive >5yrs"), generate (u5)
label variable u5 "Under 5 mortality (0-4yrs)"

** Logistic regression for mother's education and u5 deaths (Uni-variate) ***
drop if M_E==99
svy: logistic u5 i.M_E

If you want to calculate the under-five mortality rate additionally, pls refer the following link;

Hope it will be helpful..
