dear all,
my question s the following.
I want to create a new variable including the means for some groups
(strata) of the population.
For instance, assume my strata are year, gender, education.
Using egen I can compute the average of some outcome variable, for
instance wage, using the following:
bysort year gender education: egen average=mean(wage)
However, using egen I cannot use any types of weights. I would like to
use weights (weights with average 1). Do you know how can I introduce
weights in a easy way? Probably it is very easy, but I do not know the
command.
Thanks in advance
Paolo
