st: testing equality of proportions?
Dear all,
I apologize in advance for a very rudimentary question ... but I am new
to Stata and don't have the syntax mastered yet.
My subjects are classified by two nominal attributes, say X and Y. I run
the tabulate procedure
svy: tab X Y , row ci stubwidth(15)
but for the life of me I cannot figure out the syntax of a command to
test whether the proportion with Y==A is the same for subjects with
X==Often as for those with X==Seldom. I am sure the answer is somewhere
in the manuals, but I haven't been able to formulate the question in a
way that leads me there.
