Hi,
My thesis is on assessing the impact of nationality on workers earnings in UK. I have downloaded the household survey and earnings (7yrs) and tried sorting the data however I had a great difficulty in merging my data into a single dataset on Stata.
Seeing, i wasn't making any headway, i tried it on Excel using conditional formatting. The issue now is that, I seem to have an unbalanced panel data in which an individual observation appears for 2yrs at least or more but not in all the 7 years.
My question ;
1. Can i go ahead and work with this dataset i currently have
2. How do i run a regression on it
3. What are the important things i need to do on Stata for analysis my data.
I would appreciate if you can please give me a proper guideline because I'm really confused.
I'm new to stata and to research.
Sorry for the long post. I appreciate a quick response
Thanks
