CMGPD-LNMethodological Lecture Day 5 Marriage
MarriageEvent history • Outcome: marriage (or remarriage) in the next three years • Logistic regression • Restrict to people not currently married • Useful for considering the effects of time-varying characteristics • Current characteristics of kin, etc. • Can be carried out for daughters, subject to caveats related to omission of records • Discrete-time event-history via logit or complementary log-log • AT_RISK_MARRY and NEXT_MARRY • AT_RISK_REMARRY and NEXT_REMARRY
MarriageCurrent marital status • Alternatively, can look at current marital status as an outcome • Fine if right-hand side of variables of interest are fixed • Childhood characteristics etc. • Can construct flag variables for outcomes from MARITAL_STATUS • Ever married (MARITAL_STATUS != 2 & MARITAL_STATUS >= 1) • Currently married (MARITAL_STATUS == 1) • Currently remarried (MARITAL_STATUS==4) • Would want to restrict to observations of people who were MARITAL_STATUS == 3 | MARITAL_STATUS == 4
MarriageVariables for parents’ characteristics • For the study of marriage, and social mobility, parental characteristics are important • In STATA, it is easy to extract information from records of parents, and add it as a variable to an individual’s observation • Basic principle is to merge based on FATHER_ID, MOTHER_ID and so forth • Can also extract information from other kin
Preparing a file with father’s information to be merged in use "C:\Users\Cameron Campbe\Documents\Baqi\CMGPD-LN from ICPSR\ICPSR_27063\DS0001\27063-0001-Data.dta", clear keep PERSON_ID YEAR HAS_POSITION rename PERSON_ID FATHER_ID rename HAS_POSITION FATHER_HAS_POSITION bysort FATHER_ID YEAR: keep if _n == 1 save father_information, replace
