Creating Reproducible Reports and Customized Tables with Stata — Professional Development Computer Technology Workshop
ASA, StataCorp
Effectively reporting results is a crucial step in statistical analyses. Whether you are computing summary statistics, performing survival analysis, fitting multilevel models, performing Bayesian analysis, or using any of Stata's other statistical analysis features, you will want to report the results of your analysis. Stata's tools for creating customized tables, dynamic documents, and reproducible reports allow you to perform your analyses and create reports at the same time. This workshop will first introduce Stata's commands for creating and customizing tables of results and exporting those tables to Word, Excel, LATEX, PDF, Markdown, HTML, and other formats. We will then demonstrate how to produce complete reports with formatted text, tables of statistical results, graphs, and more. We will see two workflows for creating reports—using Markdown to create HTML and Word documents and using Stata commands to create customized Word, Excel, and PDF documents. Knowledge of Stata is helpful but not required.
