Re: st: STATA and survey data

[Steven Samuels <sjsamuels@gmail.com>]

Ron-

The recent book by Heeringa et al. (2010) uses Stata (note program  
spelling, Statalist FAQ 8.2) throughout.  For diagnostics, see Rick  
Valliant's  Stata Conference presentation: http://econpapers.repec.org/paper/bocdcon09/15.htm

With logit models, you can estimate ROC curves with Roger Newson's - 
senspec- ("findit") See: http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2009-01/msg00689.html 
.  Archer and Lemeshow have generalized the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness  
of fit test for logistic regression to survey data, and implemented it  
in -svylogitgof- ("findit"). The usual techniques of adding  
interactions and testing augmented against reduced models also apply.

Can anyone recommend any materials for using STATA in the analysis of  
survey data (bar the manual?). I'm particularly interested in the key  
areas around model fit, postestimation, examining residuals and the  
like.
