As that was the first thing I did, could you be more specific?> If your interest is only in whether the coefficient of interest varies by groups why not include the appropriate interaction in the model and interpret the coefficient from the interaction directly?
Did that too, as mentioned. Anyway, thanks for your time. Klaus Am 17.05.2013 17:44, schrieb William Buchanan:

But changing svyset to svyset id [pw=weight] does not solve my initial problem. I've already estimated the model using interactions, but it would have been interesting to know why I get the "option cluster() is not allowed"-error. In any case, thanks a lot!

My survey data is set up as follows: svyset id [iw=weight]To quote -help weight-: "iweights, or importance weights, are weights that indicate the "importance" of the observation in some vague sense. iweights have no formal statistical definition; any command that supports iweights will define exactly how they are treated. Usually, they are intended for use by programmers who want to produce a certain computation." So using iweights for a statistical analysis is almost certainly a mistake.I then estimate the model for two subgroups: svy, subpop(if group==1): clogit choice x1 x2, group(id) est sto group1 svy, subpop(if group==2): clogit choice x1 x2, group(id) est sto group2 To test for the equality of the coefficients of x1 across the two groups I follow the Stata reference manual for suest and enter suest group1 group2 but Stata returns "r(198); option cluster() is not allowed with svy results" although I never entered the cluster option anywhere.Why not just estimate the entire model in one go? svy : clogit choice i.group##(c.x1 c.x2), group(id) Hope this helps, Maarten The same occurs if Itry the alternative procedure suggested in the reference manual: clogit choice x1 x2 if group==1 [iw=weight], group(id) est sto group1 clogit choice x1 x2 if group==2 [iw=weight], group(id) suest group1 group2, svy Why do I keep getting this error message? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
