Hi. I am using DHS from 2010, 2014, and 2019 for regression analyses on STATA. I do not understand how to use weights for my analyses. I am doing propensity score matching, nearest neighbor matching, IPW, and IPWA. Also, I am using logit and OLS to run more simple regressions. From my understanding I need to weight the analyses, but I do not know how. Do you have a basic example of code for it?

Also, do I have to use the standard v005 or the district (because the information sheet says that weights are given by districts)? Thank you


And, Do I need weights for everything? for example, if I run a ttest between two groups..?
Thank you, any help would be highly appreciated

Best,
francesca
