NOTE: If you want to see the design effect or the misspecification
effect, use estat effects after the command.This example is taken from Lehtonen and Pahkinen’s
Practical Methods for Design and Analysis of Complex Surveys.
page 60 Table 2.8 Estimates under a PPSSYS
design (n = 8); the Province’91 population.
NOTE: The certainty PSU (the first line of the data) was entered twice
and the weight was changed from 1 to .5 for each observation. This is
necessary because you need to have two observations in each strata.
