Hi!
I'm currently working on my thesis exploring if there is an association between attitudes among women, the perception of male attitudes, and further women's intentions to circumcise their daughters. The analysis is performed using logistic regression for years between 2000-2015 and it works well for years 2000-2014 however, y.2015 differs from the rest. First, variable c.307 " circumcision of (name) in the future" differs from how the question is formulated in the other year's datasets; "intends to have daughter(s) circumcised in future". However, I have renamed them all as "circum" and further separated the variables for attitudes among women and men and the perceptions of male attitudes among women and men only to include women's attitudes. Even though it looks like the coding is the same between the years it does not work to run a LR using the dataset from 2015. The result says "no observations" r(2000)when including the variable "circum". Additionally, it does not work to run a Logistic regression comparing men's attitudes towards the continuation of FGC to women's perceptions of male attitudes for the year 2015.

What could I possibly do wrong here?
Grateful for help.
Best, Ebba
