Dear Statalisters:
In the past, I used -makematrix- (downloadable from ssc) in conjunction with -ranksum- without any difficulty. I used the following command:
makematrix m1, from(r(z) 2*normprob(-abs(r(z)))) : ranksum offer, by(info).
Now, I want to use -makematrix- in conjunction with signrank. In a different file, I have splitted my variable offer in two: offer0 and offer1.
I do: signrank offer0 = offer1 and I get the following output:
Wilcoxon signed-rank test
sign | obs sum ranks expected
-------------+---------------------------------
positive | 12 9780 16707.5
negative | 29 23635 16707.5
zero | 794 315615 315615
-------------+---------------------------------
all | 835 349030 349030
unadjusted variance 48602428
adjustment for ties -1435
adjustment for zeros -41792686
----------
adjusted variance 6808306.3
Ho: offer0 = offer1
z = -2.655
Prob > |z| = 0.0079
When I do:
makematrix m1, from(r(z) 2*normprob(-abs(r(z)))) : signrank offer0 = offer1
I get an error message: invalid syntax.
Would you have any idea?
Best regards
Herve Stolowy
