(The General Social Survey (GSS) is a project of the independent research organization NORC at the University of Chicago, with principal funding from the National Science Foundation.) If you have a homework assignment to work on you may prefer to just read the articles and then immediately apply what you've learned to your assignment. They use a subsample from the 2014 General Social Survey, which you'll download by doing the example in Managing Stata Files. All of the articles include examples you can do yourself. You will learn more if you actually carry out the steps described in these articles. After that you can read just the articles that correspond to the material covered in your class. We also recommend reading the articles in the Understanding Stata section, as they will help everything else make sense and make you a more efficient Stata user. You should read all the articles in the Stata Basics section before you do anything else. Stata for Students divided into short articles that cover a single subject. Graduate students and other researchers, and those who hope to someday be graduate students or researchers, should start with Introduction to Stata and then read Data Wrangling in Stata. Stata for Students is designed for undergraduate students taking methodology classes in the social sciences at UW-Madison, but it will be useful to students taking similar classes elsewhere or anyone looking for a basic introduction to Stata.
