Hi there,

I am running a regression predicting child stunting from variables on the household level. I have merged the HR file and the KR (child's) recode file.

There was a recommendation that the weight to use should be the one with the highest rate of non-response, but I'm not sure which weight that is....how can I figure this out? I'm using Uganda 2011.

Thank you!
