Guidelines for authors

The Stata Technical Bulletin (STB) is a journal that is intended to provide a forum for Stata users of all disciplines and
levels of sophistication. The
STB contains articles written by StataCorp, Stata users, and others.

Articles include new Stata commands (ado-files), programming tutorials, illustrations of data analysis techniques, discus-
sions on teaching statistics, debates on appropriate statistical techniques, reports on other programs, and interesting datasets,
announcements, questions, and suggestions.

A submission to the STB consists of

1. An insert (article) describing the purpose of the submission. The STB is produced using plain TEX so submissions using
TEX (or L
ATEX) are the easiest for the editor to handle, but any word processor is appropriate. If you are not using TEX and
your insert contains a significant amount of mathematics, please
FAX (979-845-3144) a copy of the insert so we can see
the intended appearance of the text.

2. Any ado-files, . exe files, or other software that accompanies the submission.

3. A help file for each ado-file included in the submission. See any recent STB diskette for the structure a help file. If you
have questions, fill in as much of the information as possible and we will take care of the details.

4. A do-file that replicates the examples in your text. Also include the datasets used in the example. This allows us to verify
that the software works as described and allows users to replicate the examples as a way of learning how to use the software.

5. Files containing the graphs to be included in the insert. If you have used STAGE to edit the graphs in your submission, be
sure to include the .gph files. Do not add titles (e.g., “Figure 1: ...”) to your graphs as we will have to strip them off.

The easiest way to submit an insert to the STB is to first create a single “archive file” (either a .zip file or a compressed
. tar file) containing all of the files associated with the submission, and then email it to the editor at stbβstata.com either
by first using
uuencode if you are working on a Unix platform or by attaching it to an email message if your mailer allows
the sending of attachments. In Unix, for example, to email the current directory and all of its subdirectories:

tar -cf - . I compress uuencode xyzz.tar.Z > whatever
mail
[email protected] < whatever
