| Title | Using a value label multiple times | |
| Author | Paul Lin, StataCorp |
Yes. Say you have a survey, and the codings for the variables q1, q2, ..., q10 are all the same. You create a value label,
. label define yesno 0 "no" 1 "yes"
and you can use it ten times:
. label values q1 yesno
. label values q2 yesno
...
. label values q10 yesno
Actually, you can save time by typing
. foreach var of varlist q1-q10 {
label values `var' yesno
}
See help foreach in Stata, or see [P] foreach.
