Hello all, I have been experimenting with svymean() and I am confused on what the output is. The data I have looks like:
*PSU* * STRATUM* * WEIGHTS* * COUNTS* *1* 1 1 2.0 1 *2* 2 1 1.0 1 *3* 3 1 1.0 1 *4* 3 1 2.5 1 *5* 2 1 1.0 1 *6* 2 1 1.0 1 *7* 1 1 2.0 1 *8* 1 1 3.0 2 I have this code: > q<-data.frame(PSU,STRATUM,WEIGHTS,COUNTS) > View(q) > dd<-svydesign(id=~PSU,strata=STRATUM, weights=~WEIGHTS, data=q,nest=TRUE) > svymean(~COUNTS,dd) mean SE COUNTS 1.2222 0.1607 I thought that SE was the standard error. When I tried to calculate it by hand I got something different. What is SE and how is it calculated? Thank you in advance!
