Dear Statalist users,
I have Stata/SE 14.2.
I have a pooled cross-sectional time-series dataset. Basically monthly surveys are conducted on different nationally representative samples of individuals who are nested in provinces--so not a panel data.
I only have 7 waves of surveys.
My dependent variable is vote choice and is a nominal variable listing four political parties.
I would like to use mixed models as individuals from the same provinces may have intra-class correlations, though I am not sure how to handle the survey waves as the number is too few, only 7 waves.
I was planning to add the wave a variable for fixed effects.
Two questions:
1) If I am to use a multinomial choice model, what would be the best command for me to use? In Stata 14, there is no multilevel mixed effects model for nominal variables (such as memlogit), and I have seen clogit, pomlogit, or fomlogit as options. The manual suggests gsem though I am having trouble applying the example given in the manual to my case.
What would be the best command for my case?
2) How would you recommend I handle the errors from intra-wave correlations?
Thanks.
