Hello,

We are trying to conduct a prevalence analysis using the Domestic Violence module in NHFS-4 (2015-16) India survey dataset. We understand that we should use the special weight to account for DV respondents, but we need further clarification on sampling weights.

We are trying to compare the prevalence across states using the nationally representative sample.

Should we use the SD005 (State Weight for DV) or D005 (Weight for DV)?

Is D005 national DV weight? or household weight for DV subsample?

Thank you for your help!

Sincerely,
Jasmin
