Hello! I'd like to create an assets-based economic indicator using data from a national household survey. The economic indicator is to be the first principal component from a principal components analysis, which (given the source of the data) I believe should take in consideration the sampling weights of the observations. After running the PCA with svyprcomp(), from the survey package, I

Hi R users, I'm using the survey package to calculate summary statistics for a large health survey (the Demographic and Health Survey for Honduras, 2006), and when I try to calculate the variances for several variables, I get negative numbers. I thought it may be my data, so I ran the example on the help page: data(api) ## one-stage cluster sample dclus1<-svydesign(id=~dnum, weights=~pw,

Hello, svyvar from the survey package computes variances (with standard errors) from survey design objects. Is there any way to compute standard deviations and their standard errors in a similar manner? Thanks a lot, Sebastian

I am facing a problem with a function in survey package. The function svyvar gives the estimated population variance from a given sampling scheme. I am working with a data having more than four continuous variables. In order to have have population total for all those cont. variables I have written in the following format svyvar(~var1+var2+var3+var4+var5+var6,data) ; var1,var2,...,var6 are 6

Hello, Using the svyplot () function, I have plotted four graphs that are saved in four different .png files. I am looking for examples how to redraw the same four graphs within grid viewports so that they stay together on a page. The goal is to create one .png file that will include all four graphs (2 rows, 2 columns). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Pradip Pradip K. Muhuri,

I'm trying to use the survey package to calculate a risk difference with confidence interval for binge drinking between sexes. Variables are X_RFBING2 (Yes, No) and SEX. Both are factors. I can get the group prevalences easily enough with result <- svyby(~X_RFBING2, ~SEX, la04.svy, svymean, na.rm = TRUE) and then extract components from the svyby object with SE() and coef() to do the

Dear WizaRds, I am struggling to compute correctly a cluster sampling design. I want to do one stage clustering with different parametric changes: Let M be the total number of clusters in the population, and m the number sampled. Let N be the total of elements in the population and n the number sampled. y are the values sampled. This is my example data: clus1 <-

Greetings, I am using library(survey) to analyze some complex sample data. After fitting a model I tried to use termplot() with make.panel.svysmooth(), but I received an error (see below). Could someone help me interpret the error message so I can make the necessary corrections? The make.panel.svysmooth() function seems to work fine, and termplot() worked fine after I dropped the smoother.

I am having trouble understanding (i.e. getting) confidence intervals from the survey package. I am using R version 2.8.1 (2008-12-22) and survey package (3.11-2) on FC7 linux. To simplify my question I use an example from that package: R> data(api) R> dclus1<-svydesign(id=~dnum, weights=~pw, data=apiclus1, fpc=~fpc) R> (tst <- svyby(~api99, ~stype,

Hi, I am trying to write a function to compute many cross-tabulations with the -svytable- command. Here is a simplified example of the structure of my code (adapted from the -svytable- help file): data(api) func.example<-function(variable){ dclus1<-svydesign(id=~1, weights=~pw,data=apiclus1, fpc=~fpc) svytable(~ variable, dclus1) } When I call this function with:

Hi, I can't for the life of me find how to do this in base R, but I'd be surprised if it's not possible. I'm just trying to replace multiple columns at once in a data frame. #load example data data(api) #this displays the three columns and eight rows i'd like to replace apiclus1[ apiclus1$meals > 98 , c( "pcttest" , "api00" , "sch.wide" ) ]

Should the svyby function be able to work with svyquantile? I get the error below ... data(api) dclus1<-svydesign(id=~dnum, weights=~pw, data=apiclus1, fpc=~fpc) svyby(~api00, design=dclus1, by = ~stype, quantiles=c(.25,.5,.75), FUN=svyquantile, na.rm=T ) > Error in object$coefficients : $ operator is invalid for atomic vectors A

Hello, The following code is expected to produce 4 charts. But, I only get charts 1,2 ,& 4, NOT CHART # 3. For Chart# 3, I am getting the following error message: Error in tapply(1:NROW(x), list(factor(strata)), function(index) { : arguments must have same length I would appreciate if someone could help me resolve the issue.

How do I retrieve the replicates estimates from a crosstab done using svyby?

Hello, Seeking a way to get the variance inflation factor VIF for a model of regression in complex survey, I have understood that without this package (SURVEY) RGui VIF obtained as follows: fit <- lm(mpg~disp+hp+wt+drat, data=mtcars) vif(fit) But I want to know if survey, Vif is obtained so vif( svyglm(api00~ell+meals+mobility, design=dstrat)) Thank you, happy day

I'm doing some work with a weighted data set (the CPS) and I'd like to use nonparametric techniques. Is there an R package that supports this? The np package doesn't appear to have provisions for weighted data. (Or have I missed something?) I need to perform both density estimation and regressions. thanks, bw
