Stata's PSGRAPH in SPSS?

Is there a way to get a graph in SPSS that is similar to the graph that results from Stata's 'psgraph' command?

(example in: Garrido, M. M., Kelley, A. S., Paris, J., Roza, K., Meier, D. E., Morrison, R. S., et al. (2014). Methods for constructing and assessing propensity scores. Health Services Research, 49(5), 1701-1720.

I assume you are referring to Figure 1.

Melissa,

This website for V23.0 has instructions for creating mirrored panel charts. You may want to check there. I did a real simple one, and it worked, but it's done through the chart editor. I've not been able to locate syntax in any of my searches, though.

Yes, that is the article and I am asking about Figure 1.

I've run a regular line graph by group.
I'm actually not clear on what Figure 1 shows that is better/clearer than the line graph, so I'm interested to hear thoughts on that as well.

Here is an example of pretty much that figure 1.

***********************************************************************************************************************************.
SET SEED 10.
INPUT PROGRAM.
LOOP Id = 1 TO 1000.
END CASE.
END LOOP.
END FILE.
END INPUT PROGRAM.
DATASET NAME Sim.
*Covariate.
COMPUTE SymptomBase = RV.UNIFORM(0,4).
*Predicts selection into treatment.
COMPUTE #T = 0.5*SymptomBase + RV.NORMAL(0,1).
COMPUTE Treated = (#T > 2).
FORMATS Treated (F1.0) SymptomBase (F2.1) Id (F4.0).
VALUE LABELS Treated
0 'Not Treated'
1 'Treated'
.
EXECUTE.

*Calculating the propensity score.
PLUM Treated WITH SymptomBase /SAVE=ESTPROB.
*EST2_1 is the predicted probability of treatment.

*Now making the side-by-side pyramid, making it on % scale so each is
weighted the same.
GGRAPH
/GRAPHDATASET NAME="graphdataset" VARIABLES=EST2_1 Treated

*I needed to edit so the zero part of the Y axis was not shifted slightly
due to my chart template.

I think a better image is to superimpose the kernel density estimates (so
you forgo making the arbitrary bins at all), which here is an example of
doing that for unequally weighted groups in SPSS, but unfortunately SPSS
smears the weight beyond 0-1, so it is not quite right. See this blog post
of mine that discusses this problem,
https://andrewpwheeler.wordpress.com/2015/07/20/transforming-kde-estimates-from-logistic-to-probability-scale-in-r/.

***********************************************************************************************************************************.
*Making a weighted kernel density plot.
AGGREGATE OUTFILE=* MODE=ADDVARIABLES
/BREAK Treated
/TotTreated = N.

*So they have the same weight.
COMPUTE InvTot = 1/TotTreated.
FORMATS InvTot (F3.2).
EXECUTE.

*Now can weight so the areas under the curves are the same.
GGRAPH
/GRAPHDATASET NAME="graphdataset" VARIABLES=EST2_1 Treated InvTot
