Redmine Understanding Society User Support - Support #172 (Closed): racelhttps://iserredex.essex.ac.uk/support/issues/1722013-07-18T16:32:21ZGiulia Montresorgmontr@essex.ac.uk
<p>Hello,</p>
<p>I was thinking I'd better use the ethnicity variable racel for adults of age 16+ from xwavedat instead indresp.<br />I have noticed that there are less missing observations in xwavedat than in indresp.<br />Can you confirm my thought?<br />Thanks,</p>

<p>Hello,</p>
<p>I noticed that for some observations there is a mismatch for the ethnicity variables between the files a_indall and a_indresp. <br />For example some individuals that are Indian according to the indresp file, result Pakistani according to the indall file. <br />I would like to understand the reason for the mismatch.<br />I know that the indresp file registers the interviewees'responses to the individual questionnaire, but what does the indall file register? Is it directly compiled by the interviewers?<br />Thank you</p> Understanding Society User Support - Support #145 (Closed): working with two waves and weightshttps://iserredex.essex.ac.uk/support/issues/1452013-05-08T18:07:11ZGiulia Montresorgmontr@essex.ac.uk
<p>Hello,<br />I want to use both waves 1-2 of US. In such case I think I need to keep only those individuals that responded in both waves.<br />I have to estimate the mean of life satisfaction for different groups of immigrants over the two years.<br />Therefore I need to use the longitudinal self-completion weight, b_indscus_lw.<br />I don't understand one thing:<br />The weight regards only observations of wave 2, therefore I need to keep only these observations? doing so I end up with a miserable number of individuals, and I cannot estimate the life satisfaction mean for the groups because the observations have zero weight. I attached my do file. I look forward to your kind reply, thanks</p>
