Recoding variables using Stata (August 2021)

This video provides a general overview of approaches one can take to recode variables using Stata 17. In addition to demonstrations of recoding, I provide some information on computing a full (or composite scale) and also how to use the drop and rename commands in Stata.

The examples rely on a fictional dataset, which can be downloaded here:
