Discover some of Stata’s hidden (and not so hidden) gems. The Tips & Tricks webinar shares with you some of the Stata developers’ favorite Stata features. It includes the following tips: label in three ways, standardize graphs using the graph recorder, then fit a model, now what?, interpret and understand the model, transform interactive use into reproducible results, work with Word. Join for this one-hour webinar and learn how you can make your interactions with Stata more efficient and effective.

Stata’s putdocx, putpdf, and putexcel commands allow you to create customized Word documents, PDFs, and Excel files with Stata results and graphs. For example, with putdocx you can create reports in Word that include large blocks of text, headers, footers, and chapter and page numbers.
We demonstrate how to create Word documents with Stata summary statistics, regression tables, and graphs. Find out how to interact Stata’s features with Word’s features and how to automate your work when you want to regularly update reports. You will also see how easy it is to use putpdf and putexcel to similarly create reproducible reports in PDF and Excel formats.

This webinar will introduce the concepts and jargon of power and sample size calculations, such as alpha levels, power, and minimum detectable effect sizes. We will do several basic calculations manually and then demonstrate how to replicate these calculations using Stata’s power commands. Next we will demonstrate how to create tables and graphs for power, sample size, and minimum detectable effect sizes for a range of values. We will conclude with a discussion of strategies to increase statistical power.

Survival analysis allows researchers to investigate duration outcomes—outcomes measuring the time to an event of interest. For example, you might be comparing time to death for individuals taking a placebo and those taking a new medication. You might also be measuring the time to employment or bankruptcy. There are some complications that arise when analyzing this type of data: the event of interest may not be observed, individuals might enter the study at different times, and some individuals may not be observed continuously throughout the study. These inherent complications have given rise to a variety of models used to analyze this type of data.
We demonstrate Stata’s specialized tools for survival analysis. We will give you a tour of the summary statistics, graphs, models, and diagnostics that are available in Stata for analyzing survival-time data. You will learn how to obtain the mean survival time, incidence rates, and perform tests of equality. Are you interested in modeling survival as a function of covariates? Gabriela will show you how to fit different regression models and adjust for within-group correlation. You will learn that even when your data have competing failure events or when the exact time of the event of interest is unknown, you can still analyze your data in Stata. You will also see how you can visualize the results of your model and graphically assess model fit.
