RE: st: how to set marginals for raking in survwgt

["Long, Sharon" <SLong@ui.urban.org>]

Thank you, Steve! 

 

You set up a "tot" variable for each characteristic
For example:


gen race_tot=2408 if race==1
repl race_tot=159 if race==2
etc.

gender 1 2
gen gender_tot=1463 if gender==1
replace gender_tot=1547 if gender==2


gen age_tot =485 if age==1
replace age_tot=518 if age==2
etc.

THEN
in the -survwgt- statement, use totvars(race_tot gender_tot age_tot)


survwgt rake preweigh, by(race gender age) totvars(race_tot 
gender_tot age_tot) generate(newwt)
