Hi,

I am using Pakistan DHS data (women's data). I want to estimate the relative index of inequality for antenatal care (Inequality based on wealth index). If I just use logistic regression model without adjusting for other factors, can I call it "relative index of inequality"?

If my dependent variable is anc (0=no, 1=yes) and the covariate is quintile (1=poorest, 2=poorer, 3=middle class, 4=richer, 5= richet)

The code is:
char quintile [omit] 1
logistic anc i.quintile

Thank you.

Zobi
