Variable Level?

[Lottie Twyford]

Hi all,
I am new to Stata and very confused by one of my assignments.

We are asked to give the level of the dependent variable by copying and pasting the appropriate Stata output.
Does anyone have any thoughts on what exactly that means and which command will show me.

I do not know if it means to use codebook and then its numeric(byte) data, or if it means its level of significance.

The dependent variable is ordinal data, ranking political rights from 1-7.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You might want to ask your instructor for clarification on the meaning of the phrase. My guess, and it's only a guess, is that it's something that you'd look into -tabulate- for, but you're right in that -codebook- would give you something similar.
