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

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).

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.
