  • Export labels from alpha output to Excel

    I am estimating the alpha of several variables. I have specified asis, item, and label.
    I need to be able to export r(ItemTestCorr), r(Alpha), and the labels. However, I can't find a way to export the labels. The matrix of r(ItemTestCorr) and r(Alpha) exports perfectly, but the labels do not. In this case, you know how labels are stored in matrices. I need your kind help to understand what I may be doing wrong. I share the code and the results. Thanks for your help!!


    ** Estimate the Cronbach's alpha for each item
    alpha lit_a2_s lit_a4 lit_b2 lit_c1 lit_c2 mth_a6 mth_a7 mth_c4 mth_c5 mth_e9 mth_f1 emo_c16 emo_c4 emo_c5 emo_c6 emo_c9 soc_c2 soc_e2 soc_x1 soc_x3, asis item label

    ** Export the result of estimation in the Sheet called "Reliability"
    putexcel set "$tables", sheet("Reliability") modify

    ** Indicate in the Excel file the name of each hypothesis test corresponds
    putexcel A5 =("Score") B5=("Item-test correlation") C5=("Alpha"), bold border("bottom", "medium", "black")
    putexcel A26 =("Test scale"), bold

    ** Save the name of matrix output
    matrix itemcorr = (r(ItemTestCorr))'
    matrix itemalpha = (r(Alpha))'
    putexcel B6 = matrix(itemcorr)
    putexcel C6 = matrix(itemalpha)
    putexcel C26 = (r(alpha)), bold

    Here is an example:

    Code:
    webuse automiss
    alpha price headroom rep78 trunk weight length turn displ
    Res.:

    Code:
    . alpha price headroom rep78 trunk weight length turn displ
    
    Test scale = mean(unstandardized items)
    Reversed item:  rep78
    
    Average interitem covariance:     49858.54
    Number of items in the scale:            8
    Scale reliability coefficient:      0.2655
    What labels do you want to export?
