I am analysing DHS-4 in R 4.0.
I want to merge IR dataset with Wealth Index dataset of Nepal DHS-4 (2001). I found IR dataset do not have wealth index in this DHS-4.
Wealth Index dataset has three columns, such as whhid, wIthindf, wIthind5.
How can I merge these two datasets to analyze the prevalence of diseases categorized by wealth index?
