Hi, I am new in this forum and new in stata as well. I would like to do a conditional logistic regression using a predetermined hierarchical framework. It is my first time to conduct this type of analysis instead of doing backward or forward stepwise. I just want to make sure that what I am doing is right. My dep-variable is diarrhoea (diarrhoea and no diarrhoea), and my independent variable say "var1 var2 var3 var4 var5 and var6". The distal level are var1 var2, the intermediate level are var3, var4 and the proximal level are var5 and var6. (Proximal here means have a direct effect on the dependent variable)
So, what I would like to ask is, if I want to find the effect size of var6, I have to include all the variable at the level above it:
Command:
clogit diarrhoea var1 var2 var3 var4 var6, group(pairid) or
Is it correct? Thank you and I really appreciate your help.
