Thanks for sending the response file.

I used the following STATA code to estimate different levels of food insecurity form Nepal DHS 2011 household record dataset. I was able to estimate food security. But, different levels of food insecurity is not matching with Table 2.17 (page 37). Could you please help me in this regards.


clear all
use "C:\dhs\data\NPHR60FL.DTA", clear
set more off
gen fsecurity=1 if ((sh130==0 | sh130==1) & sh131==0 & sh132==0 & sh133==0 & sh134==0 & sh135==0 & sh136==0)
replace fsecurity=2 if ((sh130==2 | sh130==3 | sh131==1 | sh131==2 | sh131==3 | sh132==1) & sh133==0 & sh134==0 & sh135==0 & sh136==0)
replace fsecurity=3 if ((sh130==2 | sh130==3 | sh131==1 | sh131==2 | sh131==3 | sh132==2 | sh132==3 | sh133==1 | sh133==2 | sh134==1 | sh134==2 ) & sh135==0 & sh136==0)
replace fsecurity=4 if (sh130==2 | sh130==3 | sh131==2 | sh131==3 | sh132==2 | sh132==3 | sh133==3 | sh134==3 | sh135==1 | sh135==2 | sh135==3 | sh136==1 | sh136==2 | sh136==3)
tab fsecurity
tab fsecurity [iw=hv005]


Thank you.
