If the keep permanent data sets <strong>for</strong> case-mix adjusted frequencies option = 1 and the<br />
stratified weighting option = 1, (no stratified weighting), then the following data sets<br />
will be created.<br />
Overall statistics <strong>for</strong> all entities <strong>for</strong> first bar/frequency:<br />
Star rating details <strong>for</strong> all entities <strong>for</strong> first bar/frequency:<br />
Overall statistics <strong>for</strong> all entities <strong>for</strong> second bar/frequency:<br />
Star rating details <strong>for</strong> all entities <strong>for</strong> second bar/frequency:<br />
Overall statistics <strong>for</strong> all entities <strong>for</strong> third bar/frequency (not <strong>for</strong><br />
dichotomous variables):<br />
Star rating details <strong>for</strong> all entities <strong>for</strong> third bar/frequency (not <strong>for</strong><br />
dichotomous variables):<br />

If the keep permanent data sets <strong>for</strong> case-mix adjusted frequencies option = 1 and the<br />
stratified weighting option = 2 (do stratified weighting), then the following additional<br />
data sets will be created.<br />
Overall statistics <strong>for</strong> unstratified data <strong>for</strong> first bar/frequency:<br />
Star rating details <strong>for</strong> unstratified data <strong>for</strong> first bar/frequency:<br />
Overall statistics <strong>for</strong> unstratified data <strong>for</strong> second bar/frequency:<br />
Star rating details <strong>for</strong> unstratified data <strong>for</strong> second bar/frequency:<br />
Overall statistics <strong>for</strong> unstratified data <strong>for</strong> third bar/frequency (not <strong>for</strong><br />
dichotomous variables):<br />
Star rating details <strong>for</strong> unstratified data <strong>for</strong> third bar/frequency (not <strong>for</strong><br />
dichotomous variables):<br />
