Selecting Observations
When using large data sets, it is often necessary to subset the data so that you are including only those observations that can assist in answering your particular research question. In these cases, you may want to select your own sample from within the survey’s sampling frame. For example, if you are interested in identifying demographic predictors of depression among Type II diabetes patients, you would plan to subset the data to subjects endorsing Type II Diabetes.
SPSS |
*must be added as a command option.
/SELECT=diabetes2 EQ 1
|
STATA |
// create a subset from the data
if diabetes2==1
// if running a procedure on a subset of the data (format: procedure [arguments] if [condition]). for example,
reg height weight if diabetes2==1
|
SAS |
* inside the data step;
if diabetes2=1;
|
R |
# create a subset of the data
myDataSubset <- myData[myData$diabetes2 == 1, ]
|
Missing Data
Often, you must define the response categories that represent missing data. For example, if the number 9 is used to represent a missing value, you must either designate in your program that this value represents missingness or else you must recode the variable into a missing data character that your statistical software recognizes. If you do not, the 9 will be treated as a real/meaningful value and will be included in each of your analyses.
SPSS |
RECODE VAR1 (9=SYSMIS).
|
STATA |
replace VAR1=. if VAR1==9
|
SAS |
* inside the data step;
if VAR1=9 then VAR1=.;
|
R |
myData$VAR1[myData$VAR1 == 9 ] <- NA
|
Converting String to Numeric Variable
It is important when preparing to run statistical analyses in most software packages, that all variables have response categories that are numeric rather than “string” or “character” (i.e. response categories are actual strings of characters and/or symbols). All variables with string responses must therefore be recoded into numeric values. These numeric values are known as dummy codes in that they carry no direct numeric meaning.
SPSS |
RECODE TREE ('Maple'=1) ('Oak'=2) INTO TREE_N.
|
STATA |
generate TREE_N=.
replace TREE_N=1 if TREE=="Maple"
replace TREE_N=2 if TREE=="Oak"
// OR
encode TREE, gen(TREE_N)
|
SAS |
* inside the data step;
if TREE='Maple' then TREE_N=1;
else if TREE= 'Oak' then TREE_N=2;
|
R |
# Usually not necessary in R.
|
Collapsing Responses within a Variable
If a variable has many response categories, it can be difficult to interpret the statistical analyses in which it is used. Alternatively, there may be too few subjects or observations identified by one or more response categories to allow for a successful analysis. In these cases, you would need to collapse across categories. For example, if you have the following categories for geographic region, you may want to collapse some of these categories:
Region: New England=1, Middle Atlantic=2, East North Central=3, West North Central=4, South Atlantic=5, East South Central=6, West South Central=7, Mountain=8, Pacific=9.
New_Region: East=1, West=2.
SPSS |
COMPUTE new_region=2.
IF (region=1|region=2|region=3|region=5|region=6) new_region=1.
|
STATA |
generate new_region =2
replace new_region=1 if region==1|region==2|region==3|region==5|region==6
// OR
recode region (1/3 5 6=2), gen(new_region)
|
SAS |
* inside the data step;
if region=1 or region=2 or region=3 or region=5 or region=6 then new_region=1;
else if region=4 or region=7 or region=8 or region=9 then new_region=2;
|
R |
condition1 <- myData$region == 1|myData$region == 2|myData$region == 3|myData$region == 5|myData$region == 6
myData$new_region[condition] <- 1
condition2 <- myData$region == 4|myData$region == 7|myData$region == 8|myData$region == 9
myData$new_region[condition2] <-2
|
Collapsing Responses Across Variables
In many cases, you will want to combine multiple variables into one. For example, while NESARC assesses several individual anxiety disorders, I may be interested in anxiety more generally. In this case I would create a general anxiety variable in which those individuals who received a diagnosis of social phobia, generalized anxiety disorder, specific phobia, panic disorder, agoraphobia, or obsessive compulsive disorder would be coded “yes” and those who were free from all of these diagnoses would be coded “no”.
SPSS |
IF (socphob=1|gad=1|specphob=1|panic=1|agora=1|ocd=1) anxiety=1.
RECODE anxiety (SYSMIS=0).
|
STATA |
gen anxiety=1 if socphob==1|gad==1|specphob==1|panic==1|agora==1|ocd==1
replace anxiety=0 if anxiety==.
|
SAS |
* inside the data step;
if socphob=1 or gad=1 or specphob=1 or panic=1 or agora=1 or ocd=1 then anxiety=1;
else anxiety=0;
|
R |
myData$anxiety <- NA
myData$anxiety[myData$socphob == 0&myData$gad==0&myData$panic == 0&myData$agora==0&myData$ocd == 0] <- 0
myData$anxiety[myData$socphob == 1|myData$gad==1|myData$panic == 1|myData$agora==1|myData$ocd == 1] <- 1
|
Creating Index or Score
If you are working with a number of items that represent a single construct, it may be useful to create a composite variable/score. For example, I want to use a list of nicotine dependence symptoms meant to address the presence or absence of nicotine dependence (e.g. tolerance, withdrawal, craving, etc.). Rather than using a dichotomous variable (i.e. nicotine dependence present/absent), I want to examine the construct as a dimensional scale (i.e. number of nicotine dependence symptoms). In this case, I would want to recode each symptom variable so that yes=1 and no=0 and then sum the items so that they represent one composite score.
SPSS |
COMPUTE nd_sum=sum(nd_symptom1 nd_symptom2 nd_symptom3 nd_symptom4).
|
STATA |
egen nd_sum=rsum(nd_symptom1 nd_symptom2 nd_symptom3 nd_symptom4)
|
SAS |
* inside the data step;
nd_sum=sum(of nd_symptom1 nd_symptom2 nd_symptom3 nd_symptom4);
|
R |
myData$nd_sum <- myData$nd_symptom1+myData$nd_symptom2+myData$nd_symptom3+myData$nd_symptom4
|
Labeling Variables
Given the often cryptic names that variables are given, it can sometimes be useful to label them.
SPSS |
VARIABLE LABELS VAR1 'label'.
|
STATA |
label variable VAR1 "label"
|
SAS |
* inside the data step;
LABEL VAR1='label';
|
R |
# no built-in label tags for variables
|
Renaming Variables
Given the often cryptic names that variables are given, it can sometimes be useful to give a variable a new name (something that is easier for you to remember or recognize).
SPSS |
* no actual rename function, this will create a copy of the variable with the desired name.
COMPUTE newvarname=VAR1.
|
STATA |
rename VAR1 newvarname
|
SAS |
* inside the data step;
RENAME VAR1=newvarname;
|
R |
names(myData)[names(myData)== "VAR1"] <- "newvarname"
|
Labeling Variable Responses/Values
Given that nominal and ordinal variables have, or are given numeric response values (i.e. dummy codes), it can be useful to label those values so that the labels are displayed in your output.
SPSS |
VALUE LABELS VAR1 0 'value0label' 1 'value1label' 2 'value2label' 3 'value3label'.
|
STATA |
label define labelName 0 "value0label" 1 "value1label" 2 "value2label" 3 "value3label"
label values VAR1 labelName
|
SAS |
* Set up format before the data step;
proc format; VALUE FORMATNAME 0="value0label" 1="value1label" 2="value2label" 3="value3label";
data myData; set myData;
* other data management procedures;
format VAR1 FORMATNAME.
run;
|
R |
# get order of the values
levels(myData$VAR1)
# input the labels in the same order as how the values were printed above
levels(myData$VAR1) <- c("value0label", "value1label", "value2label", "value3label")
