Hello,
I'd like to tablulate hospital specific kappas, in which a 10 item
questionnaire was completed by two observers and with dicotomous responses
to the items. I wrote a do file defining the scalars:
kap item1obs1 item1obs2 if hosp==2
scalar item1 = r(kappa)
display item1
and so on.
This displays the kappa of item 1 hospital 2 but I am not able to tabulate
this or manupulate it algebraically.
When I search for the the newly defined variable item1, I get an error
message that the variable cannot be found. It seems that it has something
to do with scalars. I've checked the manuals and can't figure it out.
Thank you,
Richard Lenhardt
