I am interested doing a pooled analysis across different countries (using only child recode files), and wondering about how to deal with weights in the pooled analysis? The previous message mentioned a multiplier. Could you explain more?

We are using Stata and running a multilievel logistic regression model with individuals nested within clusters (country included as random coefficient). Do I need to handle weights since the multilevel model should handle the clustering effect?
