Synopsis

This book provides a short but comprehensive introduction to the statistical software in Stata. It is meant to be read while sitting in front of a computer running Stata, and comes with a CD-ROM containing a variety of data sets which are used to illustrate the different Stata commands. Although written with biostatisticians in mind, much of the material is equally relevant to other disciplines. Topics covered include basic commands, dialog boxes, housekeeping, data input, graphics, data management, regression models, testing hypotheses, survival data, and Stata programming. There are many exercises, and solutions are provided by program rather than printed as part of the book.

This edition has been updated to Stata 11 and includes a new section on competing risks and new chapters on reporting results and meta analysis.
