Dear All

I am quite new to this forum, and not sure if it may have already been answered before, or my question is a very basic question. I am planning to do analysis of the determinants of childhood stunting for my MSc thesis. I haven't decided the title yet, but it may be something like "Association between [e.g. mother's education] and childhood stunting" (or something similar). I will also do some regression modelling with inclusion of other potential confounders. My question is, which dataset should I use for the analysis. Is it the "Child" dataset or the "Individual women" dataset? Or is it "Household dataset"? I think the one I use should be the child dataset as it contains information about the mother in that dataset, as well as some household information. Could anyone advise me on this?

Many thanks for your support.

Regards

Myat
