Greetings,

I'm running Stata 15.1 on OSX. Using data from the general social survey, I'm attempting to graph longitudinal trends in responses to a binary dependent variable (yes/no) by age group.
I run the following syntax:
Code:
regress SPKRAC i.year##i.age_cat4 if white==1 & ideo3==1 [pweight=wtssall]
which produces a graph that looks like this:

Array

As you can see, it's a bit of a mess. I'd like to make it (or, more specifically, the trend lines) more presentable. I was doing a little searching around and read up a bit on 'smoothing'. I have no experience in using this feature, though, and (if this is the appropriate route to take) would like a little assistance in determining which procedure to use.

Here is some sample data:
