Dear all,
I am conducting a cluster analysis in STATA.
I checked the paper "Investigating the mix of strategic choices and performance of transaction platforms: Evidence from the crowdfunding setting" from Dushnitsky et al. 2020 to see what are the lastest requirements in cluster research in my research field. (Source: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/....1002/smj.3163)
On page 20 the authors state that they calculate a variable Differentiation and I would be keen to see how this actually works in STATA.
They state that "The variable Differentiation captures the extent to which a given platform's strategic choices differ from the profile of the strategy mix the platform is affiliated with. Formally, it is the Euclidian distance between the focal platform and the centroid of the cluster to which it is affiliated, along the vector of the strategic choices." (p. 20).
Does someone know how I could implement this in STATA (so for instance what command to use etc.)?
Many many thanks in advance!
