Hi there,

I am in the process of writing a research paper. I am using Sierra Leone womens DHS dataset. I have used conindex to compute the concentration index (Erreygers). The variable of interest is binary = Contraceptive use (0=No, 1=Yes).

I would like to know if there's anyone who might have a do-file which computes the decomposition of the Erreygers concentration index (using the Wealth Index and Education as the socioeconomic variables). I want to decompose the index to further illustrate the contribution of certain background factors to inequality.

If anyone has worked on something similar, please let me know - or preferably send your do-file so that I can try to adapt it for my research. Thank you.
