Hello,
In preparation for using rcap I want to create two variables: upper and
lower confidence intervals for a proportion in my data. I have already
collapsed the data set. I know that I can use
cii obs successes, binomial
to generate the appropriate information. My question is, Is there a way of
generating a variable = to the r(ub) and r(lb)?
I tried the following without success:
levels treat, local(groups)
gen pct_bag_ub = .
gen pct_bag_lb = .
gen pct_bag_se = .
gen pct_bag_mn = .
gen N = .
foreach group of local groups {
cii obs successes if treat = "`group'"
replace pct_bag_ub = r(ub) if strain_treat == "`group'"
replace pct_bag_lb = r(lb) if strain_treat == "`group'"
replace pct_bag_mn = r(mean) if strain_treat == "`group'"
replace pct_bag_se = r(se) if strain_treat == "`group'"
replace N = r(N) if strain_treat == "`group'"
}
But cii does not support if (nor does ci).
I also tried statsby, but ci does not appear to be supported command.
Thanks as always for your help.
Cheers,
Douglas
