Hi,
I am using the xttrans command. I have a longitudinal data file with status
in each month for each respondent (12 months for each respondent). I do not
understand why using
xttrans status, i(pid) t(month)
doesn't give me exactly the same result as
ta status lagstatus, row
where status is the var indicating the status in each month (t) and
lagstatus is status at t-1.
What is xttrans actually doing?
Thx,
Anna
