Abstracts ========= 9:00--9:15 Welcome ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Katrin Auspurg (Ludwigs-Maximilians-Universtiy Munich), Josef Brüderl (Ludwigs-Maximilians-Universtiy Munich) 9:15--10:15 On the shoulders of giants, or not reinventing the wheel ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nicholas J. Cox (Department of Geography, University of Durham, UK) [njcoxstata(a)gmail.com] /Abstract:/ Part of the art of coding is writing as little as possible to do as much as possible. In this presentation, I expand on this truism and give examples of Stata code to yield tables and graphs in which most of the real work is delegated to workhorse commands. In tabulations and listings, the better known commands sometimes seem to fall short of what you want. However, some preparation commands (such as generate, egen, collapse or contract) followed by list, tabdisp, or _tab can get you a long way. In graphics, a key principle is that graph twoway is the most general command, even when you do not want rectangular axes. Variations on scatter and line plots are precisely that, variations on scatter and line plots. More challenging illustrations include commands for circular and triangular graphics, in which x and y axes are omitted with an inevitable but manageable cost in re-creating scaffolding, titles, labels, and other elements. The examples range in scope from a few lines of interactive code to fully developed programs. This presentation is thus pitched at all levels of Stata users. 10:15--10:45 Stata export for metadata documentation ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Anne Balz (GESIS--Leipniz Institute for the Social Sciences), Klaus Pforr (GESIS--Leipniz Institute for the Social Sciences), Florian Thirolf (GESIS--Leipniz Institute for the Social Sciences) [Klaus.Pforr(a)gesis.org] /Abstract:/ Precise and detailed data documentation is essential for the secondary analysis of scientific data, whether survey or official microdata. Among the most important metadata in this perspective are variable and category labels as well as frequency distributions and descriptive statistics. To generate and publish these metadata from Stata datafiles, an efficient export interface is essential. It must be able to handle large and complex data sets, take into account the specifics of different studies and generate flexible output formats (depending on the requirements of the documentation system). As a solution to the problem described above, we present the process developed in the GML (German Microdata Lab) at GESIS. In the first step, we show how an aggregated file with all required metadata can be generated from the microdata. In the second step, this file is transformed into a standardized DDI format. Additionally, we will present the implementation for MISSY (the metadata information system for official microdata at GESIS), which includes some practical additions (e.g. communication with the MISSY database to retrieve existing element identifiers, writing an output tailored to the MISSY data model). 10:45--11:00 Coffee ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 11:00--12:00 Agent Based Models in Mata ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Maarten Buis (University of Konstanz) [maarten.buis(a)uni-konstanz.de] /Abstract:/ An Agent Based Model is a simulation in which agents, that each follow simple rules, interact with one another and thus produce a often surprising outcome at the macro level. The purpose of an ABM is to explore mechanisms through which actions of the individual agents add up to a macro outcome, by varying the rules that agents have to follow or varying with whom the agent can interact (i.e. varying the network). A simple example of an ABM is Schelling's segregation model, in which he showed that one does not need racists to produce segregated neighbourhoods. The model starts with 25 red and 25 blue agents, each of which live in a cell of a chessboard. They can have up to 8 neighbours. In order for an agent to be happy she needs to have some, e.g. 30%, agents in the neighbourhood of the same color. If the agent is unhappy, she will move to another empty cell that will make her happy. If we repeat this till everybody is happy or nobody can move, we will often end up with segregated neighbourhoods. Implementing a new ABM will always require programming, but a lot of the tasks will be similar across ABMs. For example, in many ABMs the agents live on a square grid (like a chessboard), and can only interact with their neighbours. I have created a set of Mata functions that will do those task, and that someone can import in her or his own ABM. In this talk I will illustrate how to build an ABM in Mata with these functions. 12:00--12:30 How to use Stata's -sem- command with nonnormal data? A new nonnormality correction for the RMSEA and incremental Fit Indices, CFI and TLI ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wolfgang Langer (University of Luxembourg and Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg) [wolfgang.langer(a)soziologie.uni-halle.de] /Abstract:/ Traditional fit measures like RMSEA, TLI or CFI are based on noncentral chi-square distribution assuming the multinormal distribution of the observed indicators (Jöreskog 1970). If this assumption is violated programs like Stata, EQS or LISREL calculate the fit indices using the Sattora-Bentler correction. It rescales the Likelihood-Ratio-chi2-test statistics of the baseline and the hypothesized model (Satorra & Bentler 1994, Newitt & Hancock 2000). Brosseu-Liard et al. (2012, 2014) and Savalei (2018) showed in their simulation studies with nonnormal data two results: Firstly, they demonstrated that the ad-hoc nonnormality corrections of the fit indices provided by the SEM software made the fit worse, better or unchanged as compared to their uncorrected counterparts. Secondly, the authors proposed new robust versions of RMSEA, CFI and TLI which performed very well in their simulation studies. They systematically varied the sample size, the extend of misspecification and nonnormality. Therefore the same rule of thumb or criteria which are used for normal distributed data can be applied to assess the fit of the strutural equation model. My `robust_gof.ado' estimates the robust RMSEA, CFI and TLI fit measures using the corrections proposed by Brosseu-Liard et al. and Savalei. It also estimates a 90 percent confidence interval for the Root-Mean-Squared-Error of Approximation. My `robust_gof.ado' can be executed after the -sem- command with the `vce(sbentler)' option and `estat gof, stats(all)' as a postestimation command by simply typing `robust_gof'. It returns the estimated fit indices and scalars as -r- containers. A survey example of islamophobia analysis in Germany will be presented to demonstrate the usefulness of my `robust_gof.ado'. - Asparouhov, T. & Muthén, B.

The method has been implemented for Stata in the popular -oaxaca- program for cross-sectional analyses (Jann, 2008). However, in the last decades research questions are more often focused on the decomposition of group based differences in change over time, e.g. diverging income trajectories, as well as decomposition of change in differences between groups, e.g. change in the gender pay gap. Another way in which decomposition analyses can be extended to longitudinal data is repeated crosssectional decompositions and time point specific decomposition of group levels differences based on latent growth curve models. We propose to unify these different research interest under a more general longitudinal perspective that has each of the applications as a special case of the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition. We present this general view, give examples of applied research questions that can be answered within the framework and propose a first version of the program -xtoaxaca- which works as a postestimation command in Stata in order maximize flexibility in modeling and forms of longitudinal decompositions according to the user's preferences. - Jann, B. (2008). The Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition for linear regression models. The Stata Journal, 8(4), 453–479. - Oaxaca, R. (1973). Male-female wage differentials in urban labor markets. International Economic Review, 693–709. 14:00--14:30 Linear Discrete-Time Hazard Estimation using Stata ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Harald Tauchmann (Friedrich-Alexander-University, Erlangen-Nürnberg; RWI--Leibniz Institute for Economic Research, Essen; CINCH -- Health Economics Research Center, Essen) [harald.tauchmann(a)fau.de] /Abstract:/ Linear fixed-effects estimators (first-differences, within-transformation) are workhorses of applied econometrics because they straightforwardly allow for eliminating unobserved time-invariant individual heterogeneity that otherwise may cause a bias. I show that these popular estimators are, however, biased and inconsistent when applied in a discrete-time hazard setting, that is with the outcome variable being a binary dummy indicating an absorbing state. I suggest an alternative, computationally simple, adjusted first-differences estimator. This estimator is shown to be consistent in the considered non-repeated event setting, under the assumption of unobserved time-invariant individual heterogeneity being uncorrelated with the changes in the explanatory variables. Using higher-order differences instead of first-differences allows for consistent estimation under weaker assumptions. Finally I introduce the new user written command -xtlhazard- that implements the suggested estimation procedure in Stata. 14:30--15:00 Heat (and hexagon) plots in Stata ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ben Jann (University of Bern) [ben.jann(a)soz.unibe.ch] /Abstract:/ In this talk I will present two new Stata commands to produce heat plots. Generally speaking, a heat plot is a graph in which one of the dimensions of the data is visualized using a color gradient. One example of such a plot is a two-dimensional histogram in which the frequencies of combinations of binned X and Y are displayed as rectangular (or hexagonal) fields using a color gradient. Another example is a plot of a trivariate distribution where the color gradient is used to visualize the (average) value of Z within bins of X and Y. Yet another example is a plot that displays the contents of a matrix, say, a correlation matrix or a spacial weights matrix, using a color gradient. The two commands I will present are called -heatplot- and -hexplot-. 15:00--15:30 Coffee ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 15:30--16:00 Extending the -label- commands (cont'd) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Daniel Klein (INCHER --International Centre for Higher Education Research, Kassel) [klein(a)incher.uni-kassel.de] /Abstract:/ Four years ago, I first suggested extending Stata’s label commands to manipulate variable labels and value labels in a more systematic way. By now, I have refined my earlier approach and released a new suit of commands, -elabel-, that facilitate these everyday data management tasks. In contrast to most existing community-contributed commands to manipulate labels, -elabel- does not focus on solving specific problems. Combined with any of Stata’s -label- commands, it address any problem related to variable and value labels. -elabel- accepts wildcard characters in value label names, allows referring to value labels via variable names, selects subsets of integer to text mappings, and applies any of Stata’s functions to define new or modify existing labels. I demonstrate these features drawing on various examples and show how to write new ado-files to further extend the -elabel- commands. 16:00--16:30 The production process of the Global MPI ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nicolai Suppa (Juan de la Cierva Research Fellow, Centre d'Estudis Demogràfics, Spain) [nsuppa(a)ced.uab.es] /Abstract:/ The Global Multidmensional Poverty Index is a cross-country poverty measure published by the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative since 2010. The estimation requires household survey data, as multidimensional poverty measures seek to exploit the joint distribution of deprivations in the identification step of poverty measurement. Moreover, analyses of multidimensional poverty draw on several aggregate measures (e.g, headcount ratio, intensity) as well as on dimensional quantities (e.g, indicator contributions). Robustness analyses of key parameters (e.g., poverty cutoffs and weighting schemes) further increase the number of estimates. During the 2018 revision for the first time figures for 105 countries were calculated in one round. For a large scale project like this, a clear and efficient workflow is essential. This paper introduces key elements of a workflow and presents solutions with Stata for particular problems, including (i) the structure of a comprehensive results file, which facilitates both analysis and production of deliverables, (ii) the usability of the estimation files, (iii) the collaborative nature of the project, (iv) the labelling of 1200 subnational units, and (v) the documentation of code and decisions. This paper seeks to share the gained experienced and to subject both the principal workflow and selected solutions to public scrutiny. 16:30--16:45 Coffee ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 16:45--17:30 Performing and interpreting discrete choice analyses in Stata ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Joerg Luedicke (StataCorp) /Abstract:/ Discrete choice models are used across a variety of disciplines to analyze choices made by individuals or other decision-making entities. Stata supports a variety of discrete choice models such as multinomial logit and mixed logit models. While applying these models to a given dataset can be straightforward, it is often challenging to interpret their results. In this talk, I will provide an overview of Stata's discrete choice modeling capabilities and show how to use postestimation commands to get the most out of these models and their interpretation. 17:30--18:00 Whishes and Grumbles ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /Abstract:/ Users air their whishes and grumbles and StataCorp responds Registration and accommodations =============================== Please travel at your own expense.

Data for a given unit may be missing entirely, for example, because a sampled respondent refused to participate in a survey (survey non-response). Alternatively, information may be missing only for a subset of variables (item non-response), for example, because a respondent refused to answer some of the questions in a survey. The traditional way of dealing with item non-response, referred to as "complete case analysis" (CCA) or "listwise deletion", excludes any observation with missing information from the analysis. While easy to implement, complete case analysis is wasteful and can lead to biased estimates. Multiple imputation (MI) addresses these issues and provides more efficient and unbiased estimates, if certain conditions are met. Therefore, it is increasingly replacing CCA as the method of choice for dealing with item non-response in applied quantitative work in the social sciences. The goals of the course are to introduce participants to the principles of MI and its implementation in Stata, with a primary focus on MI using iterated chained equations (aka "fully conditional specification"). Prerequisites ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Participants should have a good working knowledge of Stata. Lecturer ~~~~~~~~ Dr. Heisig is head of the research Group ``Health and Social Inequality'' at the Social Science Research Center, WZB.

May I ask you for your support to distribute the CfA by forwarding it to the mailing list or newsletter of the DGS Methoden der empirischen Sozialforschung? It is a methodological Summer School for young researchers that explicitly focuses on the linkage between theory and empirical social research. Thank you very much in advance! Yours faithfully, Marcus Spittler -- Marcus Spittler WZB Berlin Social Science Center Research Unit "Democracy and Democratization" Reichpietschufer 50 10785 Berlin Germany ############################################################################# Linking Theory and Empirical Research Berlin, July 15 - 25, 2019 We are delighted to announce the 9th Berlin Summer School in Social Sciences. The summer school aims at supporting young researchers by strengthening their ability in linking theory and empirical research. The two-week program creates an excellent basis for the development of their current research designs. In the first week, we address the key methodological challenges of concept-building, causation/explanation, and micro-macro linkage that occur in almost all research efforts. We strive for a clarification of the epistemological foundations underlying methodological paradigms. In the second week, these methodological considerations are applied to central empirical fields of research in political science, sociology, and other related disciplines. In this second part of the program, participants are assigned to four thematic groups according to their own research topic. The thematic areas covered are: "External Governance, Interregionalism, and Domestic Change", "Citizenship, Migration, and Identities", "Social Struggle and Globalization", and "Democracy at the Crossroads". The program is characterized by a varied format comprised of lectures, workshops, seminars, and a one-to-one consultation. During the summer school, participants will also have the opportunity to present and discuss their own work extensively. Participants will be provided with hands-on advice for their research designs. The school brings together a faculty of renowned international and Berlin-based scholars. Among the confirmed international lecturers are Phillip M. Ayoub (Occidental College), John Gerring (The University of Texas at Austin), Hendrik Wagenaar (University of Sheffield), Anita Gohdes (Hertie School of Governance), Felix Berenskoetter (SOAS University of London) and Peter Hedström (Linköping University). The Berlin Summer School was co-funded by the Berlin Graduate School of Social Sciences (BGSS) at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and the WZB Berlin Social Science Center. Details on the location and tuition fees can be found on our webpage www.berlinsummerschool.de<http://www.berlinsummerschool.de>. The international summer school is open to up to 60 PhD candidates, advanced master students, and young postdocs. The call for applications is currently open. Applications can be submitted online via the application form on the summer school webpage until April 15, 2019. The decisions of the selection committee will be announced to the applicants in April. If you have any further questions, please contact the organizing team at summerschool.bgss(a)hu-berlin.de
