Hi,

I want to do cross tabulations of anthropometry indicators (stunting, wasting, underwt) for districts of UP according to caste, tribe, gender. The same problem persists for child anemia estimates. The SPSS output (after using state weights) is different from the prevalence reported in district factsheets of NFHS 4. Please note, I have used both KR and PR recode file (HW 70-72, HC70-72) to check the data. This is problematic since other variables are generating same estimates as given in factsheets. What should I do?

Please note, the PR recode is currently removed from DHS website. Is there a new file for this data? or do I have to merge certain recode files.
