5.2.2 Subsidiary dimensions in LEM: SPSS syntax
* The technique involves autorecoding each unit of the subsidiary * structures from the latest version of the base unit as used for the * models. * For this example, the base unit is {h/w}bst4, and we produce * subsidiary dimension indicators for employment status, major and minor group, * and major group by status. get file="revisions1.sav". compute pid2=pidid + 1000000. sav out="mtch1.sav" /keep=pidid hbst4 hempst4 h1gp4 h3gp4 h1gpst4 . sav out="mtch2.sav" /keep=pid2 wbst4 wempst4 w1gp4 w3gp4 w1gpst4 /rename (pid2=pidid) (wbst4 wempst4 w1gp4 w3gp4 w1gpst4 = hbst4 hempst4 h1gp4 h3gp4 h1gpst4 ). add files file="mtch1.sav" /file="mtch2.sav" /by=pidid. sort cases by hbst4 pidid. compute first=1. if (hbst4=lag(hbst4)) first=0. fre var=first. select if (first=1). write out="temp10.dat" / hempst4. write out="temp11.dat" / h1gp4. write out="temp13.dat" / h3gp4. write out="temp15.dat" / h1gpst4. execute.
