Thank you for previous assistance.

I want to derive child nutritional status by maternal factors for Nigeria, Burundi, and Angola. I merged PR+KR+IR files to derive stunting, wasting and underweight and derived whats in the DHS of each country. However, I got a different result when I computed my study outcomes by child's age and child's sex.

Please, how do I reproduce stunting, underweight and wasting by child's age and child's sex specifically table 11.1 in Nigeria DHS, Burundi DHS, and Angola DHS.

Is hw1_1 the right variable to use for the child's age in months? and b4_01 for child's sex?

I tried v008 - b3 and got ==" no variables defined"

PLS GUIDE ME.


Thank you
