This gives me the table (below) on the left, but what I am aiming for is something like the table (below) on the right, in which the column headers are not repeated and the names of categorical variables are included.
TABOUT STATA CODE
The code that I am using now is: asdoc tabstat X*, by(gender) center title(\) ///ĭec(1) font(Times New Roman) save(table1.doc) replaceĪsdoc tabstat X*, by(income) dec(1) title(\) save(table1.doc) rowappend I was wondering though if there is some way to use the ‘nest’ function in combination with ‘tabstat’? I am trying to create a table that displays the means of three variables in columns for several categorical variables in rows. I have been playing around with asdoc a bit and so far very much like the simplicity of the syntax in combination with the elegance of the output. OR asdoc tabstat price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight length, ///Įxample 53 : By with many variables and many statistics bysort foreign: asdoc tabstat price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight length, /// Stat( max mean sd median p1 p99 tstat) replaceīysort foreign: asdoc tabstat price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight length, stat(mean) replace statistics are shown in columns, while variables are shown in rowsĮxample 49 : One variable, many stats, including t-statistics sysuse auto, clearĪsdoc tabstat price, stat(min max mean sd median p1 p99 tstat) replaceĮxample 50 : Many variables, one statistic asdoc tabstat price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight length foreign, stat( mean) replaceĮxample 51 : Many variables, many statistics asdoc tabstat price mpg rep78 headroom trunk weight length foreign, /// If statistics are less than variables, the table is transposed, i.e. For reporting purposes, asdoc categorizes tabstat commands in two groups:
And, yes asdoc allows one additional statistics, that is, t-statistics alongside the allowed statistics in tabstat. asdoc fully supports the command structure and options of tabstat.
There are several custom-made routines in asdoc that creates clean tables from tabstat command.
