Subject: st: mean tests an fweight
Hello Statalisters,
I�m comparing the mean of a sample by group, this is, comparing the
mean of the income earned for males and females. I�m using the Stata -
ttest - command, but i�m a bit confused because this command doesn�t
allows using weights (fweights) and I think that this affects the
results, doesn�t it?
Do you know another way to compare the means of the sample using weights?
I�d really appreciate your comments.
Thank you,
Leonor
