Re: st: significance stars on stata plots

["Roger B. Newson" <r.newson@imperial.ac.uk>]

I don't know if you use the -parmest- and -eclplot- packages. However, 
the commmands of the -parmest- package have a -stars()- option, to 
generate a string variable containing the stars. And the -eclplot- 
package has an -addplot()- option, allowing the user to display these 
stars as an additional plot superimposed on the confidence interval 
plot. The online help for -parmest- and -eclplot- contain references to 
various presentations and Stata Journal articles on the use of -parmest- 
and -eclplot-.

I hope this helps.

Best wishes

Roger

For instance, if I wanted to have a bar chart comparing the mean years of education between men and women, is there a way to put a star (or two) on top of the female bar to denote a significant difference?
