Re: st: regressing on percentages.
This is an interesting question.
You might want to look at:
Michael Tomz, Joshua A. Tucker and Jason Wittenberg (2002): An Easy and
Accurate Regression Model for Multiparty Electoral Data; Political
Analysis, 10:1
However, their log-transformation does create some interesting issue
that I am still trying to figure out...

Dear all,
I think that this question was previously asked on the
list, but I could not find it in the archives.
I have data from cases and controls. The data consists
of percentages of various cell types for each
individual. The percentages sum to 100 for each
person. I want to compare the two distributions (cases
and controls) while adjusting for subject's
characteristics.
Is there an appropriate model in Stata to do this?
Thank you,
Ricardo
