Something like this?
clear
set obs 5
gen id = _n
expand 5
sort id
bys id: gen order = _n
gen chosen = 0
levelsof id, local(levels)
foreach l of local levels {
if runiform() < .5 { //probability that id is chosen
local a = round(1 +4*runiform(),1)
qui replace chosen= 1 if order == `a' & id == `l' //1 of 5
alternatives is chosen
}
}
drop order
l
