sorry, I hit the send button by mistake! I would like to correct self-reported data inconsistencies in a panel data set. For example, if there is an education variable, which is reported 5 times, say as follows: year educ 2000 12 2002 11 2004 13 2006 12 2008 11 I wonder if anyone has a simple program that can be implemented to correct such inconsistencies. Thanks in advance. David On Mon, Mar 11, 2013 at 2:29 PM, David Jose <davidjosework@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > I would like to correct self-reported data inconsistencies in a panel > data set.
