IHSTRANS: Stata module for generating inverse hyperbolic sine (IHS) transformed variables

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: ihstrans is a tool for inverse hyperbolic sine (IHS)-transformation of multiple variables. The command can process multiple variables at once, and therefore can handle datasets that are in wide format and allows for setting casewise missings for observations. The program automatically detects string variables and keeps them from transformation to avoid an abrupt ending. Additionally, variables identifying panel and time within a panel dataset are also kept from the process of generating new variables.
