Hi all,
hope you all are fine. I have a variable named income. its minimum
value is 10k and maximum 100k. now i want to subdivide this income
variable so that inc1 = 10k-20k, inc2=20k-40k, inc3=40-70k and
inc4=>70k. when i use egen command (egen incomecut=(cut income) at
(20,40,70) etc, though it divide the variable, but i dont know how to
use only a specific range to use in regression. for example what
should i do if i want to check the effect of only income range 10k-20k
in my model. Thanks
