Dear DHS experts,

I am using the Turkey DHS 1993, 1998, 2003, 2008, and 2013 child data files.
DHS used V022 or V023 for strata when weighting on youtube videos.

In the 1993, 1998, 2003, 2008 DHS data sets:
V022:Sample stratum number
V023:Sample domain

And in the 2013 DHS data set:
V022:Sample strata for sampling errors
V023:Stratification used in sample design

Should I use the V022 variable or the V023 variable for "strata" when weighting?

Thank you so much
Best regards
Şeyma
