Dear All,
I am currently examining the effect of technology adoption on poverty reduction. I am using the STATA command of "povdeco" . It gives me the poverty indices for adopters and non-adopters separately. However, I am not getting any result indicating the statistical significance of the differences in the poverty indices between adopters and non-adopters.
can anyone help me by providing some other commands, if any?
@ Emmanuel Vijayanand Murray
Thank you for your response. I am trying to use the stata command;
"povdeco varname [weights] [if exp] [in range] [, pline(#) varpline(zvar) bygroup(groupvar) summarize]" but it gives only the FGT indices by the group variable only. My question is how should I know whether the difference between the groups based on FGT indices is statistically significant or not.
Use P-Value. P stands for probability and measures how likely it is that any observed difference between groups is due to chance. Being a probability, P can take any value between 0 and 1. Values close to 0 indicate that the observed difference is unlikely to be due to chance, whereas a P value close to 1 suggests no difference between the groups other than due to chance
