Dear all,
I'm getting a little confused with the weight options. I've constructed the following weight: A / B=weight, with A==share in true population and B==share in sample. These weights refer to U.S. states while the observations are single individuals.
Which weight option should I use in the regress command? I think it should be the -pweight- but since I've never worked with weights before, I thought I ask!
Many thanks for your considerations,
Andrea
