Subject | st: fsum labels with multi-level variable |
Date | Tue, 19 Feb 2013 16:26:13 -0600 |
I have the following fsum code, which looks OK in the output, except that dose remains listed by number (1-4, as entered in the data) rather than by label (which is my intention). I have scanned all the fsum documentation and the list serve FAQ to no avail. Here is the code, any help would be appreciated. label variable i_systolic "systolic BP" label variable i_diastolic "diastolic BP" label variable i_hr "heart rate" label define dose 1 "placebo" 2 "150 mg caffeine" 3 "300 mg caffeine" 4 "450 mg caffeine" sort dose by dose: fsum dose i_systolic i_diastolic i_hr, stats(mean se p25 p50 p75) format(%9.2f) uselabel I think I understand that this does not work because the [by dose] call should come after the [fsum] call, but it's not clear how to get fsum to list by dose otherwise… Regards, Scott Lane UTHSC-Houston * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/resources/statalist-faq/ * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
