Dear all,
I am coming across an issue for some of the IR datasets that are conducted with only ever-married women and would need your assistance for the hv005 and v005 variables which are the hh sampling weight (PR) and the woman sampling weight (IR).
In the case when the women's data includes only ever-married women, I have to merge it with the household member data to still have the women that are never-married. However, then I have a problem with the sampling weights of the never-married women as in the household member data they have the hv005, but this is different than the v005. I did compare the v005 and the hv005 for the ever-married women and they differ.
Could you tell me why there is a difference between the values of the two weights and would it be legitimate to still use the hv005 for never-married women when they are not part of the women's survey? Or what kind of sampling weight otherwise I should be assigning to them. One example of a dataset where I have this issues is Bangladesh 2017/18.
Thanks as always for your help!
