Thanks for that prompt response. My intention is to establish the presence of linear trends in the undernutrition rates at the national level across the 3 survey years. I also intend to do same across various values of different child, maternal and household characteristics, like gender, child age groups, maternal education etc. I need an appropriate test of the presence of trend. Is the np trend under non-parametric tests appropriate considering that it is not supported by the survey design. The F test you spoke about, is it the hypothesis test for model fit? And the logistic model you propose would have the survey year as the only independent variables?
Thank you.
