Dear All,I know that there is a never ending debate on this, but I am interested in your opinion.
Do (and if so, how do) we interpret interaction terms in the following regression example:
we want to explain whether someone got lung cancer or not and we explain this by gender and smoking.
gender= non sign. ever smoked= non sign. gender*smoked= sign annamaria *** 2011.02.16. 16:17 keltezéssel, Nick Cox írta:
I don't see a histogram. I see markers of different sizes and I don't know what the precise story is. Anyway, you can get some of the way there directly with something like gen one = 1 label def one 1 "Econ 1 odd" label val one one scatter one myvar or graph7 myvar, oneway or you can look at e.g. -stripplot- (SSC). Nick n.j.cox@durham.ac.uk Rilke Rainer Michael does anyone know how to do such a graph: www.rainer-rilke.de/1.png ? It seems to me that this is a scatter plot combined with a histogram. But I do not have a clue about how to implement such a thing in stata. * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
