Hi, I'm working with the Malawi 2015-2016 DHS data to identify out-of-school adolescent girls and young women aged 15-24 who have an HIV test result. I am a bit confused about all the different datasets and wondering from where I should pull observations. Currently, I have tried to pull from the individual recode and couples recode, and match them to their HIV status. I'm wondering if I should pull from the household roster, or if I have already counted those by using the individual dataset? It looks like I will need to pull current schooling status from the household dataset as well, and I'm wondering how to connect people in the roster to the other datasets, if possible. Thanks!
