scholarly journals Tabulation of Multiple Responses

Although multiple-response questions are quite common in survey research, Stata's official release does not provide much capability for an effective analysis of multiple-response variables. For example, in a study on drug addiction an interview question might be, “Which substances did you consume during the last four weeks?” The respondents just list all the drugs they took, if any; e.g., an answer could be “cannabis, cocaine, heroin” or “ecstasy, cannabis” or “none”, etc. Usually, the responses to such questions are stored as a set of variables and, therefore, cannot be easily tabulated. I will address this issue here and present a new module to compute one- and two-way tables of multiple responses. The module supports several types of data structure, provides significance tests, and offers various options to control the computation and display of the results. In addition, tools to create graphs of multiple-response distributions are presented.

A multivariate factorial design was proposed for determination ofp-synephrine. Novelty of present approach stems from consolidating multiple responses into a unified performance characteristic.

This paper deals with construction of plans for s-level factorial experiments in which there are p response variables and each respose is affected by one or more factors. The plans are orthogonal for each response variable. Estimates of the parameters in the models for such plans are obtained when Σ, the dispersion matrix of an observation vector is known. The properties of these estimates can be of help in designing the experiment so that the variances of estimates of the parameters can be influenced by their relative importance.

A frequent problem in data management is that datasets may not arrive in the best structure for many analyses, so that it may be necessary to restructure the data in some way. The particular case of multiple response data is discussed at length, with special attention to different possible structures; the generation of new variables holding the data in different form; valuable inbuilt string and egen functions; using foreach and forvalues to loop over lists; and the use of the reshape command. Tabulations and graphics for such data are also reviewed briefly.
