I would like to calculate weighted confidence intervals of the median, which I need to use for a descriptive graph (median wealth and associated confidence intervals graphed by marital status group and gender).
Currently I am using the following command, which unfortunately cannot handle weights:
Code:
statsby median=r(c_1) upper=r(ub_1) lower=r(lb_1), by(mar_di_pro2 female) saving(medianci, replace) : centile wealth use medianci , clear
Code:
gen median1 = . gen median0 = . quietly forvalues i = 1/6 { forvalues f=0/1{ summarize wealth [w=xrwght] if mar_di_pro2 == `i' & female==`f', detail replace median`f' = r(p50) if mar_di_pro2 == `i' & female==`f' } }
I am using Stata 15 and my data are the German Socio-Economic Panel.
Thanks,
Nicole
