Riassunto

This handbook describes the features of Stata - an exciting statistical package used for standard and non-standard methods of data analysis. A Handbook of Statistical Analyses Using Stata shows outlines this package's usefulness in:

modeling complex data from longitudinal studies or surveys

analyzing results from clinical trials or epidemiological studies

enabling tailor-made analyses with its powerful programming language
Each chapter identifies the appropriate analysis for a particular set of data. A brief account of statistical background is included in each chapter, but the primary focus is on using Stata and interpreting results. This handbook complements its two predecessors A Handbook of Statistical Analyses Using S-Plus and A Handbook of Statistical Analyses Using SAS.
