Dear DHS Researchers,

I have another question regarding the use of Stata collapse to aggregate individual-level statistics to create community-level variables.

Bearing in mind the complex survey structure of the DHS, is it necessary to include the pweight option in the collapse command in order to obtain weighted aggregate/summary statistics?

Thank you,
Elizabeth
