Hello everyone,
I'm working on my thesis using Stata 16, I've been using it a bit in the past but I'm not too well versed in stata.
I wanted to duplicate some of my observations using the expand command and added a new variable using the ,generate(newvar) at the end of the command. I did this twice for different variables but some of the newly generated observations have an entry in both new variables and I don't understand why. Could someone offer insight?
Here is my code:
expand 2 if ReceiverRegimeTypeII == "1" | ReceiverRegimeTypeII == "2"| ReceiverRegimeTypeII == "3", generate (obs)
(70 observations created)
.
. expand 2 if ReceiverRegimeTypeIII == "1" | ReceiverRegimeTypeIII == "2"| ReceiverRegimeTypeIII == "3", generate (obs1)
(62 observations created)
. tab obs obs1
| obs1
obs | 0 1 | Total
-----------+----------------------+----------
0 | 504 32 | 536
1 | 70 30 | 100
-----------+----------------------+----------
Total | 574 62 | 636
So specifically I'm asking why do 30 observations have both 1s in obs and obs1?
Thanks in advance!!
