Hi Tom,

I have found the following options on weighting for a two-level structure:
    1. Assume equal probability sampling at group level
    2. Rescale the weights
The references for the above are as follows:
    - Carle, A. Fitting multilevel models in complex survey data with design weights: Recommendations. BMC Medical Research Methodology, 2009 9:49.
    - Rabe-Hesketh and Skrondal. Multilevel modeling of complex survey data. J. R. Statist. Soc. A (2006) 169, Part 4, pp. 805827
    - Stata MultiLevel Mixed-Effects Reference Manual, Chapter: mixed- Multilevel mixed-effects linear regression, Section: Survey data
I am trying to apply the above to melogit. And this is only related to sampling part for each survey.

I have to still figure out how to apply the weighting for pooling across countries or time (if I decide to use DHS within country to improve my sample size).

Any suggestions are welcome
Many thanks


Deepali
