You could do that something like, e.g.
sysuse auto
twoway__histogram_gen length if !foreign, start(140) w(10) freq gen(h0 x0)
twoway__histogram_gen length if foreign, start(140) w(10) freq gen(h1 x1)
replace h1=-h1
gen zero=0
twoway (rbar h0 zero x0, barw(10)) (rbar h1 zero x1, barw(10)), ///
yla(-10 "10" -5 "5" 0(5)15) yti(Frequency) ///
legend(label(1 "Domestic") label(2 "Foreign"))
Note the very handy command -twoway__histogram_gen- (two underscores in the first gap!) that is not in the Stata manuals but does have a help file.
Hope this helps
David

Subject: st: graph for propensity scores
Dear statalist,
I am estimating treatment effects using propensity scores.
To discuss the common support I’d like to graph the scores for the
treated and the controls.
However, my graph knowledge is very limited and is only sufficient to
generate a graph, where the scores for the treated and the controls are
displayed next to each other. That is I am using the by(.) option and
the command historgram.
I’ve seen the scores are displayed upwards for the treated and mirrored
downwards for the controls in one single graph.
Has anybody an idea how to do this?
Thanks in advance
Hans
