Subject   st: How to create data cohorts across two household survey periods? Working with pseudo-panel data...

Dear All,

I have the following question:

Suppose I wanted to see how a set of observations with 3 determining
characteristics (age, education, location) evolved over two different household
survey periods, how should I do that? I would also like to know how to generate
the set of observations with these three primary characteristics from the entire
data set; how to look at/link the vector of other characteristics (PCY, HCR, PC
expd. etc) for this set of observations to get an idea of the distribution for
this sample and then how to compare this vector of other characteristics
associated with the comparable sample in the later survey period?

I have just begun working on Stata and while I can see the logic of what I want
to do, I am not 100% sure how to go about it. So, any help would be greatly
appreciated. Needless to add, there's always a tight deadline for these things!

Many thanks and best regards,
Anirudh
