Alright, so is it possible to perform any kind of analysis with the data from 2015?
So far I have tried to append children's data (containing information about mother's intention to circumcise their daughters) with women's datafile (containing attitudes towards continuing FGC among women and men).

My two questions are:
1. Is there an association between women's attitudes, the perception of male attitudes, and the intention to circumcise their daughter?
2. Do men's attitudes towards continuing FGC deviate from women's perceptions of male attitudes towards continuing FGC?

I have split the variable for Attitudes and perceptions so it contains observations for women and men separately. However performing LR for Attitudes, perceptions, and intentions does not work. LR with Attitudes and perceptions work fine however it does not seem like the same women are asked about attitudes, perceptions, and intention for circumcising? That might be the problem, or should I be able to perform this analysis for 2015? it has worked well in the other datasets.

The other problem is that I cannot do a regression comparing men's attitudes towards continuing FGC with the perception of men's attitudes among women. This should work, as the variables are still in the same dataset but somehow it also says "no observations".
