Hello, I'm new to Stata and trying to do an analysis of survey data where the code was provided for me in the read me file.
svyset [pw=person_finwt0], jkrw(person_finwt1-person_finwt50, multiplier(0.98)) vce(jack) mse
I was supposed to use the above survey settings but I made a mistake because I thought when only using 1 year of survey data (instead of a comparison of 2 years like I originally planned) you had to put the multiplier as 0.49. I have no idea what I'm doing here but I need to change the multiplier to the correct value of 0.98 and I keep getting an error of
characteristic person_finwt1[jk_multiplier] already exists and is different from the value supplied to multiplier()
I have tried clearing the survey design, opening and closing the program, etc but nothing has worked. Does anyone know how to do this without me having to go back to the original data file and recode all of my variables again? BTW I'm using Stata 12. Thanks for your help!
