Good morning. I would like to perform a sensitivity analysis of some
regression results. I know the proportion of smokers by neighbourhood, but
I do not have information about individual smoking habits. I wish to
perform Monte Carlo simulations in which, in each run, I assign each
individual a dichotomous (0/1) smoking variable based upon the probability
of his being a smoker (as derived from the proportion in his
neighbourhood). Is there a Stata function that will allow me to randomly
draw 0s or 1s based upon the binomial proportion?
