st: probability weight defining
Hi,
I have a survey sample to be weighted using probability weight.
It is not kind of a simple random sampling problem. The observations are
drawn from (region, size) combinations, say 4 regions(North, east, west and
south) and 3 sizes( small medium and large) . Total combinations are 12.
The numbers of observations in each combination are S1, S2,...S12
respectively.
And I know the populations for each combination, say, N1, N2,..., N12. I
need to weight the data for consideration of both region and size.
How to define the p-weight using SVYSET command? Can I use pw_j = Sj/Nj,
where j =1,2,...,12? (say, replace pw = S4/N4 if region == a & size
==b...)
Thanks,
