Dear statalist,
I can't seem to figure this out. I have data from a table that I would
like to plot. The data looks like this:
country sex mean se x
USA Male 269.34 (2.29) 1
USA Female 277.60 (2.17) 1
England Male 267.80 (2.52) 1
England Female 266.78 (2.56) 1
Scotland Male 264.91 (4.69) 1
Scotland Female 267.65 (3.56) 1
. . . .
. . . .
Scotland Female 400.65 (4.73) 10
I would like to plot the means for each country-sex cell (with t-shaped
error bars that are +/- 2*se) as lines with x on the x-axis.
I could do this with twoway rcap by defining y1=y+2*se and y2=y-2*se, but
that only plots the error bars without connecting the points. Is
there a way to connect the points or is there a better alternative to
this?
Thank you for your help.
DVM
