Dear all,
I am now currently writing my final paper about relations between religiousity and female labor force participation, using STATA 13 and IFLS4. The dependent variable is FLFP. Meanwile, the independent variables are religiousity, residence, female characteristics (age, religion, education, marital status, gender of head household), spouse characteristics (age, income, education) and household characteristics (number of children under six years old and number of children between 6-18 years old). I separate the female characteristics, spouse characteristics and houseold characteristics data.
I would like to ask some suggestions about some commands of these questions:
1. How to merge female characteristics, children characteristics and spouse characteristics in one household, if there are more than two husbands and wives in one household? Since I tried to use merge 1:m hhid07 using $dir01\children but it says that variable hhid07 does not uniquely identify observations in the using data. I tried using hhid07 and pid07 however that makes any married couples in the same household will have same number of childrens.
2. If I use appends, does it work during the regression?
I am looking forward to get some suggestions regarding my questions. Thank you very much.
