Abstract

With technology advances, researchers can now capture data using web-based applications. One such application, Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap), allows for data entry from any computer with an Internet connection. As the use of REDCap has increased in popularity, we have observed the need to easily create data dictionaries and data collection instruments for REDCap. The command presented in this article, redcapture, demonstrates one method to create a REDCap-ready data dictionary using a loaded Stata dataset, illustrated by examples of starting from an existing dataset or completely starting from scratch.
