st: RE: simulating datasets with certain characteristics
There are probably many ways to do this, but "corr2data" is probably the
simplest. The following should do what you want.
set obs 500
mat C = (1.0, 0.4 \ ///
0.4, 1.0)
corr2data Measure1 Measure2, n(500) corr(C)

Subject: st: simulating datasets with certain characteristics
Can anyone provide pointers on how to use Stata to simulate a dataset
with
predetermined correlational structure? For instance, say I wanted
MEASURE1
to correlate with MEASURE2 at around r = .4?
