Quantiles using weights

Postby llopes » Tue Sep 03, 2013 1:27 pm

I am creating a variable ‘incdec’ that classifies the variable ‘income’ by deciles. I used the following command:
income.classify(method=quants) 10 @ incdec
However, I have population weights for the variable ‘income’ and I would like to classify income by deciles using the population weights. Is there a command to do this?
Thank you!

Unfortunately not.
