I am conducting analysis with the 2007 Bangladesh DHS, women's survey - specifically using data from the domestic violence module. I have a question about the dv weight (d005).

The Bangladesh 2007 Survey Report and the (general) DHS Recode Map V describes calculation of sampling weights for households, females, and males. The recode map instructs that each of these be divided by 1000000 prior to use.

I cannot find information about the calculation of the dv weight d005, and I wonder if I should also divide it by 1000000 before use.
