Abstract: Stata module that implements Potter's (1990) weight distribution approach to trim extreme sampling weights. The basic idea is that the sampling weights are assumed to follow a beta distribution. The parameters of the distribution are estimated from the moments of the observed sampling weights and the resulting quantiles are used as cut-off points for extreme sampling weights. The process is repeated a specified number of times (10 by default) or until no sampling weights are more extreme than the specified quantiles.
