Therefore, in the dataset I have survey weights for each individual and bootstrap weights to estimate variances.</P> <P>I already outputted the distributions of and outcome of interest on the same group of individuals <STRONG>before</STRONG> and <STRONG>after</STRONG> some intervention. Therefore, I already have the estimate values and standard errors of the values I want to compare (i.e. means and % of individuals within certain cut-off values along with theirs standard errors).</P> <P>I'm using SAS EG 7.1.</P> <P>Thanks a lot,</P> <P>A.G.</P> Mon, 21 Sep 2020 15:10:01 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/Statistical-Procedures/Test-for-the-equality-of-two-paired-means-and-proportions-with/m-p/685459#M33018 alexgonzalez 2020-09-21T15:10:01Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/Statistical-Procedures/Test-for-the-equality-of-two-paired-means-and-proportions-with/m-p/685472#M33020 Look into PROC SURVEYMEANS, specifically work through the examples. <BR />If you still have issues, search on LexJansen.com for specific examples closer to yours. <BR /><BR />Or do you already have the means and distributions, accounting for the weights?

Any example in particular you may have in mind?<BR />Thanks a lot,<BR />A.G.<BR /> Mon, 21 Sep 2020 16:34:48 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/Statistical-Procedures/Test-for-the-equality-of-two-paired-means-and-proportions-with/m-p/685476#M33021 alexgonzalez 2020-09-21T16:34:48Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/Statistical-Procedures/Test-for-the-equality-of-two-paired-means-and-proportions-with/m-p/685481#M33022 Just a note that if you used PROC MEANS you'll want to ensure you used the right VARDEF option to account for your weights.<BR /><BR /> Mon, 21 Sep 2020 16:44:19 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/Statistical-Procedures/Test-for-the-equality-of-two-paired-means-and-proportions-with/m-p/685481#M33022 Reeza 2020-09-21T16:44:19Z
