Dear All: I have a clinical study where I would like to compare the demographic information for 2 samples in a study. The demographics include both categorical and continuous variables. I would like to be able to say whether the demographics are significantly different or not. The majority of papers that I have read use multiple techniques to achieve this (e.g., t-test fo...

Hi all, I am using aidsEst( ) in "micEconAids" package to estimate Demand system. But I would like to add more demographic variables in demand system. How can I add those information? for example: mydata<-data.frame(p1,p2,p3,p4, s1,s2,s3,s4, totalexp, house,age,urban) priceNames<-c(&quo...

What I want to do is create a query with find() that will preload all login and demograph...

I am a relatively new R user and have recently built a multivariate dataset without the demographic information. Is there any package or code to simulate subgroup dataset (race, sex, age) using R? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Alok [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

...rom the 'Cloud'? Ubuntu installations currently trumps the combined numbers of Centos, Fedora and RHEL (not that using Centos/Fedora/RHEL guarantees secure installations) installations and I just wondered on that aspect. On another note, I wonder how big a change will take place in the demographics when Centos 6 'hits the streets'.

...d what it's intended to do. The documentation is generally pretty scant. Working with two columns: Date of Death (DOD) and Last Known Date Alive (LKDA). One or the other column is populated for each of the patients in my dataframe and the other column is blank. When I run code like "with(Demographics, coalesce(DOD, LKDA))", the function generates a value whenever DOD is not missing and generates NA otherwise (even though the value for LKDA is not missing). So, for example, I get an NA for the 8th element below, even though I have a value of "2008-03-25" for LKDA. > with(De...

Hello R users, I am relatively new to the R program, and I hope some of you can offer me some suggestions on how to organize my data in R using some of the more advanced data structuring technique. Here's my scenario: I have date set of 50 participants (each with conditions and demographic data), each participant performed 2x16 trials, for each trial, there was specific information about the trial (i.e. errors, and timing), and a spreadsheet-like large data set with headers. I have to extract data from each spreadsheet-like data according to the information about the specific trial...

In Germany the Unemployment Agency uses a sectioning of the german map that is different from the usual Administrative Boundaries. Some demographic data are available in Administrative Boundaries only, some in Unemployment Boundaries only. I would like to generate estimates in one boundary system of data availabe in the other boundary system, and would appreciate advice concerning the following questions: - can someone provide mapping func...

Hi all, I got curious about something, so in proper scientific fashion I obtained some data and analyzed it. Question: what is the female participation in the R-help email list? Data: the most recent list postings, obtained from the website. I took my best shot at classifying the names given in the email header as male/female, but ended with a fair number of unknowns. This dataset had 2797

...mail address during the process. An argument for not requiring e-mail during registration within our team (one I am arguing against) is that not everybody has an e-mail address, so we shouldn''t require it. But, being in the MySpace generation, I''d imagine that the majority of this demographic have at least one e-mail address they check on occasion. However, I don''t have any hard stats on Internet users who don''t have e-mail, but I''d imagine it to be very low, but this is only a guess. Now, I am curios on people''s thoughts on requiring or not requir...

Hi everyone, Does anyone know if there is a package to compute raking weights using R? What I need is to create a variable with weights base in some demographic variables (e.g. sexo, age group, area) using the raking procedure. Thank you in advance! -- Sebasti?n Daza
