Hello -
This is my first time using the set of SVY commands in Stata and I have a few questions. When I use the syntax:
svyset psu [pweight=pw], strata (strata)
Stata 1) does not calculate the standard errors and 2) I get a message stating that standard errors are" missing because of stratum with single sampling units".
Furthermore, I am also getting incorrect counts for my PSU. There were originally only 100 PSUs in my data. However, I do get standard errors with the following syntax:
svyset psu [pweight=pw], strata (strata) || _n, singleunit(certainty)
But I still get a 455 PSU count. Again, I have never used SVY to account for clustering and complex survey design. I would appreciate any advice.
Thank you.
