I was wondering which weights should I use if I am focusing on the data from October/Education supplement but also include other socio-demographic variables such as age, sex, total income, etc. Would WTSUPP work?
In addition, how do I use these weights in STATA? Is this the only command that I need:
You would want to use WTSUPP for an analysis focused on the Education Supplement. For a more complete discussion of when different weights should be used for IPUMS-CPS, see the response to this question. Your svyset command should produce results comparable to those published by the Census Bureau, however, due to the complex sampling structure of CPS you may also want to look into recent published research for best practices in your specific research area.
