Hi, I am currently doing a study on domestic violence using the Philippines 2017 DHS datasets. When I do frequency for CSPro using the following:
V044
Universe = v502 in 1:2
weight = d005/1000000

I get the published value of 11,558.

But doing the same variable in Stata using [aw=d005]
I get a value of 13,215, which is also the UNWEIGHTED value in CSPro.

What am I missing in Stata?

Thank you guys in advance!

Val
