DESCRIPTION:Presented by Professor Amaresh Dubey and Professor Wendy Olse
 n.\n\nIn the morning session\, Professor Dubey introduces the Indian Hum
 an Development Survey. As a large longitudinal field survey data at two 
 time points\, 2004/05 and 2011/12\, it represents all regions of a huge 
 country. He shows how to use design weights and calculate the design coe
 fficient DEFF. He also introduces several STATA commands\, notably svyse
 t\, reshape\, generate\, replace\, label define\, merge\, keep\, drop an
 d rename. Participants are given the do files to run\, making their expe
 rience easy.\n\nParticipants will be exposed to merging two rounds into 
 a panel. Professor Dubey then presents the regression modeling of an out
 come in Round 2 based on structural variables measured in Round 1. The r
 esponse variable is likely to be a change-factor (transitions in/out of 
 poverty versus staying in poverty). It is likely that logit regression w
 ill be used.\n\nThe afternoon session is shared with Professor Wendy Ols
 en\, who will introduce measures of human capabilities using microdata. 
 The afternoon will cover regression on an index of well-being or capabil
 ities using two competing methods---a classical scale and confirmatory f
 actor analysis -- in Stata. One can use SEM or GSEM commands to combine 
 a regression with a CFA\, as taught elsewhere. The more advanced command
 s used in the afternoon include recode\, replace\, regress\, sem\, estat
  eqgof\, and predict. Again\, participants are given the do files to run
 .\n\nThis workshop is of intermediate level. Some past experience with S
 PSS or STATA is recommended. Participants are not able to take away the 
 whole IHDS dataset with them. Indeed participants use a masked (anonymiz
 ed) dataset version in the workshop.\n\nAnyone can register online for a
 ccess to the actual IHDS data for their research. See data access URL ht
