  • Interpreting the results from Loneway command

    Hi,

    I was hoping someone could help me.
    I ran the command
    Loneway recycling acode
    Where recycling is the recycling rate within a local authority, and acode is the code for each local authority.
    Below are my results. What does it mean by 'intraclass correlation' here? Am I correct in thinking around two thirds of the variation in recycling rates comes from between local authorities; Is there is a high correlation of recycling rates due to local authority specific variation.

    Thank You
