Hello Everone,
I am analysing NFHS-5 data, my variables of interest (mainly variable s323: "Times used emergency contraception in last 12 months") are from the State module in Stata 17.0. I was wondering what the correct survey codes are for this and other variables included in the State module.
Are the below codes correct?
gen weight = v005/1000000
gen psu = v021
gen strata = v023
* DESCRIBING THE SURVEY DESIGN
svyset psu [pw = weight], strata(strata) singleunit(centered)
There are two variables given in the State module:
variable sweight "Sample weight (6 decimals) (state level)"
variable sdweight "Domestic violence weight (6 decimals) (state level)"
Which of these two variables is to be used? and what would be the correct 'svyset' command to analyse the variables included in Stata module
