Hi Bridgette,

Thank you so much for your answer.
You said "Burundi: The Burundi DHS 2010 survey was collected August 2010 - January 2011." so that's why the actual data includes both years of 2010 and 2011 while the filename is Burundi Standard DHS 2010.

I have two questions here (pls. check the attachment first):
1. Should I turn the data of two years into one year, such as changing 2011 to 2010? (maybe also change the respondent's age)。
--Because the number of observations in two years has a huge gap.

2. Those filenames contain two years instead of one, such as Angola Standard DHS 2015-2016, is this a two-year time-series data instead of collected in two years?

Thank you.
