crosswalk: A new command for fast and flexible bulk recoding

Ben Jann

UK Stata Conference 2025 from Stata Users Group

Abstract: In this talk I will present the new crosswalk command, a data management utility for fast table-based recoding. The command comes with predeRned crosswalk tables for common recoding tasks related to occupational classiRcations, for example, to translate ISCO codes (International Standard ClassiRcation of Occupations) into ISEI scores (International Socio-economic Index of Occupational Status), OEP scores (Occupational Earning Potential), or ESeC classes (European Socio-economic ClassiRcation). However, it is also easy to deRne, manipulate, and apply custom recoding tables. In this talk, I will brieXy explain how crosswalk is implemented, present its syntax, and then illustrate its use with some applied examples.
