Dear statalist
I have a data set which I would like to analyse with survival analysis and
panel analysis.
Excerpt from my data set:
ID Year status
1 2000 0
1 2001 0
1 2002 0
1 2003 1
2 2002 0
2 2003 0
2 2004 0
2 2005 0
3 2001 0
3 2002 0
3 2003 2
4 2002 0
4 2003 3
For the panel analysis I would like to change the variable "status" (with
the information on 4 different reasons (so status could be 1,2,3,3) of
death and 0=pending) so that I have the "reason of death" in all years and
not in the year of death.
Like this:
ID Year status
1 2000 1
1 2001 1
1 2002 1
1 2003 1
2 2002 0
2 2003 0
2 2004 0
2 2005 0
3 2001 2
3 2002 2
3 2003 2
4 2002 3
4 2003 3
Could anybody help my how to replace the "0" with "1" "2" "3" "4" if the
person is death?
Thank you for your help.
Best Frauke
