Dear Statalisters,
I'm trying to test for collinearity in survey regression. I have many
variables. Then, I was thinking how to use foreach. Looking at UCLA
Stata FAQ, I can do:
use http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/notes/hsb2, clear
generate rw = read*write
svyset [pw=socst], strata(ses)
svy: regress read write rw
svy: regress write read rw
svy: regress rw write read
I generated a local macro and used the foreach command. However, the
example below is wrong because I have the variable read in both sides
of regress...
local vars "read write rw"
foreach x of local vars {
svy: regress `x' `vars'
}
Survey: Linear regression
Number of strata = 3 Number of obs = 200
Number of PSUs = 200 Population size = 10481
Design df = 197
F( 0, 197) = .
Prob > F = .
R-squared = 1.0000

(running regress on estimation sample)
I read Nick's columm on Stata Journal, they are very useful and clear,
but I still don´t know how to solve this problem.
Thanks for the help!
