Hi Nick,
Many thanks for the advice - can I just check that I have substituted the glm command in the right way below? The adjusted means I am getting from the glm model seem different to what I would expect.
xi:reg log_ins i.q5_adj age smoke bmi
adjust age smoke bmi, by (q5_adj) se ci
xi:glm ins i.q5_adj age smoke bmi, link(log)
adjust age smoke bmi, by (q5_adj) se ci
Many thanks,
Best wishes, Amy
