Hi there,
I am just wondering how to get data on under five mortality having downloaded the DHS 2018 survey for Mali (child recode downloaded). I know from the DHS website ( https://www.dhsprogram.com/data/Guide-to-DHS-Statistics/Earl y_Childhood_Mortality.htm) that there is a way of calculating it but I am unsure of whether I need to do this calculation in order to use under five mortality as a variable in my research using SPSS software. Would anyone be able to give advice on whether I need to calculate under 5 mortality using the information on the DHS website or whether I could just use StatCompiler Data on under 5 mortality and somehow add a new variable to the Mali 2018 data set that I have downloaded on my computer using StatCompiler stats on Mali under 5 mortality for 2018?
If I do need to calculate the under five mortality using SPSS using variables already in the data set that I have downloaded, how do I go about this? (asking anyone with SPSS experience).
Or, if I should add in a variable using StatCompiler data on under 5 mortality from 2018, how should I go about doing this in SPSS?
For wider context, I plan to look at the correlation between household electricity access and under five mortality in Mali using binomial logistic regression in SPSS. If anyone has advice on how to prepare my variables such as household electricity access, under 5 mortality, and covariates (such as household access to improved sanitation, improved water, and maternal literacy, then please do let me know.
