Dear statalister,
I have a data set from a household survey and would like to use
survey commands
in Stata for analysis. I'm trying to find the relationship between
place of
delivery coded as (1=Health Facility 0=Other) and other explanatory
variable
like age of mother, tribe. My interest is obtain risk ratios and
not odds
ratios. Can anyone assist me on how to go about it.
You can try your hand at -binreg- which will do robust variance
estimation to take into account clustering in your data, though it
won't accept the -svy- prefix. -binreg- will give risk ratios with
the appropriate option selected.
-binreg-, however, is not guaranteed to find a solution to a
reasonably-specified model, unlike -logistic- which will. I've been
lucky; -binreg- has worked for me most of the time. Others report
less heartening results.
