(i use stata 17)
i have two variables, pisa, my dependent variable and m0, m1, m2 and m3 are my independent variables.
pisa corresponds to a students' grade in school and m0, m1, m2 and m3 (binary variables) are equal to 1 if the number of musical instruments in the home is respectively 0, 1, 2 and 3 or more (0 otherwise).
the question we need to answer is : (b) Provide a 99% confidence interval for the difference in pisa between a student that
lives in a house with 5 musical instruments compared to one with zero.
And i can't seem to figure out how i'm supposed to estimate pisa for students in a household with 5 instruments if i only have 3+.
I though of maybe using three points m0, m1 and m2 to estimate a curve [m0(0;1999), m1(1;1365), m2(2;846)] to then estimate the number of students with 3, 4 and 5 instruments at home knowing that there are 1021 students with 3+ instruments,
but i don't know how to do that, even less on stata.
m0, m1, m2 and m3 are quite collinear, i don't know to what lenght this may be useful information.
Thank you for your help!
I have more info if necessary like coefficients through reg and vif...
