Block bootstrap

yuchendi — Fri, 08 Dec 2017 15:07:35 GMT

Hi all,

I need to use block bootstrap for my panel data. I found PROC SURVEYSELECT can do naive bootstrap, how about block boostrap? Can I do it with PROC SURVEYSELECT or some other procedures? I want to avoid writing big macro code.

Please let me know if you have an answer to my question. Thanks!!!

Best,

Erin

Hi RW9,

I found these articles too. But they were talking about doing naive bootstrap using PROC SURVEYSELECT, not block bootstrap. I don't know which option in PROC SURVEYSELECT is able to assign blocks, or if it could be done at all.
