Subject: st: Graphing the median of a list of variables
Stata newbie here with a question I'm having trouble finding an answer for.
I would like to create a line graph with variables along the x-axis and
their median on the y-axis, with a different line for each variable based on
the cohort year. Here's the details:
My database of likert-scale survey data looks basically like this:
| id | year | question1 | question2 |
question3 | etc...
| 5 | 1999 | 1 | 4 |
3 |
| 5 | 2001 | 3 | 4 |
2 |
| 6 | 1999 | 3 | 5 |
4 |
So ultimately I'd like a graph with question1, question2...questionX along
the x-axis, and the median of each variable on the y-axis, with a different
line for each year.
I feel like it should involve tabstat or reshape somehow, but can't manage
to work it out. Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
