Econometrics project.Research question:What is the impact of education when individuals have same reservation wage in the age group of 21-35 on the unemployment rate in India.
No need of literature review but have to work with Periodic labour force data(PLFS) on the Stata. There are two data files: one household level and one personal level.Merge these two files, show the results and write the report in latex. I need both the report and code files.I have uploaded them here along with questionare.

The architecture of these surveys provides the measurement of labour force indicators in cross classification of age, gender, education, industry, occupation, time disposition, mobility and wages. After the initial experimentations for evolving the concepts and methods of various measurements to capture the diverse facets of labour force, the employment and unemployment surveys have become the integral part of quinquennial household socio-economic survey programme of NSSO since it’s 27th Round (1972-73). The concepts and definition adopted therein are primarily based on the recommendations of the Committee of Experts on Unemployment Estimates (Dantwala Committee), set up by the Planning Commission in 1970. Within the established and stabilized framework, the concepts and measurement methods have occasionally been fine-tuned and refined to meet users’ requirements ensuring their harmonization with international standards. 1.0.2 The behavior of labour market depends on the trend and pattern of the overall economy. The volatility in the economy, both in its inter and intra sectoral linkages as well as in the context of economic integration with rest of the world, is reflected in the domestic labour market. Such volatility, off late, is experienced to be more pronounced in the contemporary economic environment, influenced by global economic meltdown. Given such exigencies, measuring its short term impact on labour market is considered extremely important. Accordingly, availability of labour force data at more frequent time interval is considered as the need of the hour. 1.0.3 Considering the importance of availability of labour force data at more frequent time intervals (say, for every quarter), on the recommendation of the National Statistical Commission (NSC), the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoS&PI) constituted a Committee on Periodic Labour Force Survey (PLFS) under the Chairpersonship of Prof. Amitabh Kundu, then Member, NSC to develop the survey methodology including the sample design for generating monthly/quarterly labour market data. The Committee recommended for conducting a pilot study for operational and other aspects of the survey using rotational sampling design. Pilot survey was conducted in the urban sector of three States viz., Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh and Odisha during July 2011 – June 2013. Chapter One Introduction: Coverage, Concepts, Design and Definitions Instructions to Field Staff, Vol. I: PLFS A-2 1.0.4 Subsequently, as a follow-up action on the recommendation made by the National Statistical Commission (NSC), a Standing Committee on Labour Force Statistics (SCLFS) was constituted by NSSO on 12th November 2014 under the Chairmanship of Prof. S. P. Mukherjee, Emeritus Professor, University of Calcutta. The SCLFS is to periodically review the whole system of collection, compilation and dissemination of Labour Force Statistics along with survey instruments being used as well as data gaps/additional requirements in respect of labour force statistics and to make recommendations/suggestions for conducting Labour Force Statistics, including Periodic Labour Force Survey (PLFS). The major task of the SCLFS in respect of PLFS was to critically analyze the sample design and Schedule of Enquiry recommended by the Committee on PLFS. The SCLFS decided that the content of PLFS that was proposed by the Committee on PLFS would be modified to collect data on some aspects of the quinquennial employment and unemployment survey covering both rural and urban areas, besides retaining the feature of PLFS to generate quarterly estimates of level and change parameters for only urban areas. Accordingly, SCLFS made recommendations with respect to the structure of the Schedule of Enquiry and Sampling Design to be adopted for PLFS. 1.0.5 Objective of the survey: The objective of PLFS is primarily on two aspects. The first is to measure the dynamics in labour force participation and employment status in the short time interval of three months for the urban areas only in the Current Weekly Status (CWS). Thus, in every quarter, PLFS will bring out the level and change estimates of the key labour force indicators in CWS viz. Worker Population Ratio (WPR), Labour Force Participation Rate (LFPR), Unemployment Rate (UR). Secondly, for both rural and urban areas, level estimates of all important parameters in both usual status and CWS will be brought out annually. 1.1 Outline of the Survey Programme 1.1.1 Geographical coverage of the survey: The survey will cover the whole of the Indian Union except the villages in Andaman and Nicobar Islands which remain extremely difficult to access throughout the year. 1.2 Schedules of enquiry: Following schedules will be canvassed: Schedule 0.0PL : List of households Schedule 10.4 : Employment and Unemployment (First Visit) Schedule 10.4 : Employment and Unemployment (Revisit) 1.3 Contents of Volume I: This volume of instruction contains three chapters. Chapter One gives an overview of the survey operation and discusses the concepts and definitions of important technical terms to be used in the survey. It also describes the sample design, rotational scheme, and procedure of selection of households. Chapters Two and Three contain instructions Chapter One Introduction: Coverage, Concepts, Design and Definitions Instructions to Field Staff, Vol. I: PLFS A-3 for filling of Schedules 0.0PL and Schedule 10.4. A list of frequently asked questions (FAQs) has been provided at the end of Chapter Three. 1.4 Sample Design 1.4.1 Rotational scheme for pilot survey: A rotational panel sampling design will be used in urban area. The rotational scheme will be of two years duration to accommodate the changes in the urban frame in the intracensal period; in the sense that the sampling frames for both rural and urban areas will remain unchanged for every two-year duration. In this rotational panel scheme each selected household in urban areas will be visited four times – one with first visit schedule and other three with revisit schedule. The estimates can be given for successive quarters without any break in the series (starting from the fifth quarter), ensuring a 75% matching between consecutive quarters. Regression based estimates will not be generated. Instead, usual traditional design based estimates will be generated. The proposed design aims at generating quarterly estimates of level and change parameters of some important labour force indicators (LFPR, WPR & UR) based on CWS data in urban areas and annual estimates of level parameters based on usual status for both rural and urban areas in the line of employment & unemployment survey of NSS quinquennial round. 1.4.2 Rotational panel design for urban areas i. The initial rotational panel will be for two years, where only 25% FSUs of urban annual allocation will be covered in the first quarter (Panel P11) with detail listing and canvassing of visit 1 schedule in the selected households; where Pij indicates the panel belonging to j th quarter of the ith two-year period of rotation. ii. Another 25% FSUs will be covered in the second quarter (Panel P12) for taking up visit 1 schedule and revisit schedule will be canvassed in the selected households of Panel P11. iii. A new panel P13 of 25% FSUs will be surveyed in third quarter with visit 1 schedule and revisit schedules will be canvassed in the households of panels P11 & P12. iv. In the fourth quarter, households of panels P11, P12 & P13 will be surveyed with revisit schedule and a new panel P14 with 25% FSUs for visit 1 schedule. v. In the subsequent quarters of second year 75% FSUs (3 panels - P12, P13 & P14) will be common and an earlier panel (P11) will be replaced by a new panel (P15) for canvassing visit 1 schedule. This will continue till 8th quarter. vi. All the FSUs of the panels P11, P12, ...., P18 (each of which is with 25% of FSUs) will be selected before commencement of survey in the first quarter. vii. At the end of the second year of each two-year duration, updated frame will be used for both rural and urban areas. viii. FSUs of another set of panels P21, P22, ..., P28 selected from the updated frame will be made ready before commencement of first quarter of third year (first quarter of the second two- Chapter One Introduction: Coverage, Concepts, Design and Definitions Instructions to Field Staff, Vol. I: PLFS A-4 year duration). These panels P21 to P28 will take care of the changes in the urban frame during the intracensal period. ix. In the ninth quarter (first quarter of the second two-year duration), panel P21 selected from the updated frame will be introduced and the panels P16, P17 and P18 of the old frame will be surveyed. x. This scheme will continue for another 2 years with the introduction of panels P22 to P28 each in one quarter for the subsequent 7 quarters till the end of the fourth year (second year of the two-year period). xi. This scheme of rotation of panels will enable generation of estimates of change parameters with 75% matching and 25% of unmatched samples from fifth quarter onwards. xii. One of the main advantages of this plan of rotation is that there will not be any break in the series of estimates of the change parameters starting from 5th quarter. xiii. Since major changes in the rural-urban frame occurs in the Census years (say for the year
