hi all,
i can not find any sign/command for a line break within column labels in a table. i found posts about line break for long commands in do files (http://www.stata.com/statalist/archi.../msg01049.html) and about line break for labels in graphs (http://www.stata.com/statalist/archi.../msg00068.html) . However this solution for the graph did not work in the table.
Just to know the content: I'm comparing callback percentages to job adds between typical white and typical african american names (similar as the study: Bertrand M. and S. Mullainathan, 2004, "Are Emily and Greg More Employable than Lakisha and Jamal? A Field Experiment on Labor Market Discrimination\, The American Economic Review, Vol. 94, No. 4.)
I need to create a table similar to the attached photo. A couple of things however don't work the way i want them to.
so far i got the following table command:
estpost ttest call_p call_c call_b call_f call_m, by(white)
esttab , modelwidth(30) substitute(/ <br>) label cells("mu_1(fmt(2) label(Percent callback)) mu_2(fmt(2) label(Percent callback for)) mu_1/mu_2(label(Ratio)) b(label(Percent difference))" "N_1(fmt(0) label(for White names)) N_2(fmt(0) label(African-American names)) . p(fmt(4) label((p-value)))")
those are my questions/the things that don't work:
* how can i get rid of the summary statistics at the bottom (N is shown)?
* how can i insert a line break within the column labels, my approach was to use the substitute command and exchange the "/" that is shown between the two labels of the cells in one column with a line break. <br> however does not work as line break here… any ideas how to insert a line break within a label in a table?
(i found posts about line break for long commands in do files (http://www.stata.com/statalist/archi.../msg01049.html) and about line break for labels in graphs (http://www.stata.com/statalist/archi.../msg00068.html) . However this solution for the graph did not work in the table.)
* in the third column i want to add the ratio, i.e. mu_1 divided by mu_2, just putting mu_1/mu_2 however does not work. any ideas how to include the ratio of the two means in this table?
thanks and best regards, andrina
