Dear All,
I am trying to bootstrap a decomposition using the syntax outlined
in the stata manual. I want to bootstrap the whole decomposition
procedure which includes the running of some regressions. The
beginning of my file looks as follows:
program define jmp
version 7.0
if "`1'"=="?" {
global S_1 "com1 com2 com3 com4"
exit
}
tempname jmp
global list1 "educb educc educd educe educf marr childreny
childreno ten tensq exp expsq occupa occupb occupc occupd
occupe occupf occupg occuph indc indd indef indg indh indi indj
indk indl indm indn indo Harjumaa West Sothcntl Nrthcntl South
ethnic"
local year "94 99"
foreach yr of local year {
reg lnwge $list1 if year==`yr' & gender==1
gen fesample_`yr'=e(sample)==1
/*and so on*/
post `1' `topost'
end
the file does not run and the return message is:
use "P:\panel.dta", clear
. set seed 10001
. bstrap jmp, reps(1)
(obs=19210)
too many variables specified
r(103);
now my question: does the r(103) refer to the variables I have
specified in my global list1? And if so, is there something i can do
to extend the number of variables?
I would be grateful for any suggestions.
Eva
