Hello everyone,
I am running STATA 8. I am not sure what this
procedure is called, but this is what I am trying to
do:
For an example, I have 3 questions asking respondents
to rate how much they like various fruits (Orange,
Apple, Pear) on a scale of low med high. So...I have
a data table similar to the following:
Low Medium High
Q1. Orange
Low Medium High
Q2. Apple
Low Medium High
Q3. Pear
Now I would like to combine these 3 questions into a
new variable called Fruit that would look similar to:
Fruit Low Medium High
Orange
Apple
Pear
Is this possible or does it make sense?
Thanks,
Buddy
