Hi,
I am trying to assess various determinants of infant mortality in the case of Pakistan.
I have exhaustively searched on the DHS user form about my query. I got great help from Trevor's comment on calculating the various mortality rates for Pakistan.
Now what I am more interested in is further analysis. I have to create a dummy for whether there is infant mortality or not. So here are some of my basic questions from DHS experts;
1. Please assure me that the file I'll be using is Birth Recode file?
2. How do I create a dummy for the stance of infant mortality, I mean I know how to create a dummy variable in STATA but what variables exactly I need to use here?
I am a lot lost and confused in starting my analysis. Any .do file in this regard will be considered a great source of help.
Awaiting response.
