Want to know how to conduct a basic data analysis using Stata 15? We show you just that. Watch as we show you how to import data into Stata from Excel, how to change the display format of a variable, how to label variables and the values of categorical variables, how to create new variables, how to describe and summarize variables, and how to create several kinds of graphs. Next, we demonstrate how to fit a linear regression model, how to calculate and graph marginal predictions from the model, and how to send those commands to Stata's Do-file editor. The video ends with a discussion of how to learn more about Stata using the Help files, PDF documentation, and the *search* command.
