BRFSS 2011 Individual Regressor Analysis on Diabetes
This code restricts BRFSS 2011 to Texas respondents with a valid diagnosed-diabetes outcome and constructs predictor-specific analytic samples with appropriate recoding and missing-data handling. It then fits separate bivariate survey-weighted logistic regressions of diabetes on each predictor and reports sample sizes and tidy coefficient estimates.
Age as a Predictor of Diabetes (BRFSS 2011 - 2023)
This script loads Texas BRFSS 2011–2023, harmonizes age into consistent five-year groups, constructs a binary diagnosed-diabetes outcome, and runs survey-weighted logistic regressions of diabetes on age group for each year plus pooled periods. It then extracts the most statistically significant age-group coefficient per year (and per pooled period) and plots those log-odds estimates with 95% error bars, marking 2014 (ACA) and 2020 (COVID).
BRFSS 2011 Imputation of Diabetes Predictors Analysis
This code constructs a Texas-only BRFSS 2011 analytic sample, rigorously cleans and recodes health, behavioral, socioeconomic, and access-to-care variables, applies multiple imputation for missing covariates, and defines survey-weighted designs consistent with the BRFSS sampling structure. It then estimates a sequence of survey-weighted logistic regression models of diagnosed diabetes, progressively adding regional fixed effects, interaction terms, and nonlinear specifications to assess robustness and heterogeneity.
