>
> Just to make sure, in the regression shall I use the
> value-added share (a bigger value should be associated
> with a larger weight) or the inverse of the
> value-added share?
>
> I am asking this because when reading about pweight or
> aweight it seems to me that the weight is defined as
> the inverse probability/weight?

> Many thanks.
