Subject   st: Identifying Experiment subjects that belong in both the Placebo and Experiment Groups
Date   Sun, 21 Oct 2012 15:38:50 +0400

Hi All,

I have a dataset like below but for thousands of subjects (IDs).

However, in my experiment a particular subject may have received both
the treatment and placebo at the same or different dates (such as
person of ID 2 and ID 1 respectively). This occurrence would then
invalidate the experiment. I would then like to find a way to identify
and flag those subjects.

Date          ID          Received
1/1             1           Treatment
1/1             2           Treatment
1/1             2            Placebo
17/1           1            Placebo
18/1           3            Treatment

I know I'd have to do bysort ID: gen flag = 1 if ...

Thank you!

Kind regards,


Beatrice
