Hi all,
I trying to calculate the prevalence of pre-lacteal feed and its determinants. However, there is no m55 variable in NFHS-4 India data sets. There are other m55 variables like m55a and so on.
I am using the child data sets.
How can I calculate the prevalence of pre-lacteal feed?

Hello dnameispaone,
You can try teh following code.
For prelacteal feeding
*** EVER BREASTFED (ONLY LAST-BORN CHILDREN)
/*FOR ALL CHILDREN BLOCK THE STATEMENT WHICH STATES (drop if bidx>minbidx)*/
cap drop ever_breastfed
recode m4 (94=0 "No") (else=1 "Yes"), gen(ever_breastfed)
label var ever_breastfed "Ever breastfed"
label var ever_breastfed "Child ever breastfed?"
label val ever_breastfed ever_breastfed
*** PRELACTEAL FEEDING
cap drop prelacteal
gen prelacteal=0 if ever_breastfed==1
label define prelacteal 0"No" 1"Yes"
label var prelacteal "Percentage who received a prelacteal feed"
label val prelacteal prelacteal
foreach xvar of varlist m55a-m55j m55k m55x {
replace prelacteal=1 if `xvar'==1
}
*

I'm glad I could help,
To estimate the standard errors or confidence intervals for some of your analysis, please try to change the svyset command statement to:
svyset psu [pw = weight], strata(strata) singleunit(centered)

Hello,
This will point you in the right direction. The code is supposed to work, but I think I'm missing something.
I'm not getting the exact percentages (maybe one of the DHS experts with assist you).
