Thank you for the response.

My thought process was that once I create the year of birth, I would get the mean of each of my variables of interest in each birth year (which serves as a cohort) which I would then use to carry out the regression.

I am still new to pseudo panels. "But essentially you are just creating "year of birth" variables - it is unclear why this is being used to generate a "pseudo-panel"". How would you suggest I go about creating the pseudo panel? I am interested in how household's ownership of land has affected school attendance of children in the household over time (from 2003 to 2014). My dependent variable is a binary variable so I intended to use a probit model.

One of my data sets covers more than one calender year (2008-09), in that case, how can I go about dealing with this problem?

Also, do you know of any papers or articles that talk about empirical implementation of pseudo panels in stata?
(I tried using help pseudo panels in stata but I didn't get much material.)
