Thanks so much, Trevor.

I think the best solution is to run separate models. I would be interested in knowing more about how these constant factors are applied. I have seen some studies using pooled DHS where male/females are combined. I will contact those authors to see how they handled the issue (just for curiosity sake). But I will separate the datasets by gender, and run separate models for each.

Thanks for a long and torturous detour !.

With much appreciation - cY
