Dear Sir,
I am currently doing data analysis of the Nepal DHS 2022 survey. While looking at the data, I found that the men samples selected for assessing anthropometric measurement (especially BMI) were quite different from the earlier surveys. The men samples selected for assessing BMI were those not selected for the household survey, and therefore do not have weighting. Therefore, I am quite confused during data analysis, whether I should include weighting for men while calculating demographic information. By doing so, I would exclude the data of men for whom weighting has not been provided. Please suggest to me how I can include all data for men and also include sample weighting. Thank you for your help.
