how to restrict sample for data analysis?

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hello everyone!
I have to following problem: I use a .mat file for my data analysis and only want to include observations of males. I have a dummy variable that codes observation of males by 0, but I cannot find a solution to restrict my sample to males only.
My data set contains approximately 20 variables for each observation (=person).
I hope this information is sufficient.
Thanks for your help!

mask = YourData(:, index_of_dummy_variable) == 0;
MaleData = YourData(mask, :);
The above assumes that the dummy variable is coded as a column of the data and that index_of_dummy_variable is the column number it is in.
