I have two independent complex survey designs, one with 30 JK
replicate weights (survey conducted in 1997), the other with 60
(survey conducted in 2007).
I have combined these files in a manner similar to the Californian
Health Interview Surveys - http://www.chis.ucla.edu/methodology.html
(see the Methodology Paper on Examining Trends ... - this has detailed
instructions regarding how to combine such data with STATA).
So, my combined file has 90 replicate weights.
I svyset with the following command:
- svyset [pweight=mhsfinwt], jkrweight(wpm0101 - wpm0190,
multiplier(1)) vce(jackknife) mse -
When processing this design, for say, estimating propotions for the two surveys:
- svy jackknife : proportion mhpsyo12, over(nsmhwb)
(running proportion on estimation sample)
Jackknife replications (90)
----+--- 1 ---+--- 2 ---+--- 3 ---+--- 4 ---+--- 5
.................................................. 50
..........ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
What does the 'ssss...' mean?
Thanks;
Philip
