Dear all,
I have dataset on firms' performance for both participants in public scheme and non-participants and need to estimate treatment effects controlling for endogeneous sample selection.
A main equation is specified as follows,
P1=x1*beta1+e1 if delta=1, where P1 is performance of participants
P2=x2*beta2+e2 if delta=0, where P2 is performance of non-participants
A regime equation is specified as follows,
S=Z*gamma+u, where S is a latent variable.
delta=1 if S>0, =zero otherwise, where delta is an observable dummy.
A switchr program downloadable at ssc does not seem to help.
It conducts ols instead of probit for a regime equation and yeilds the results with the same number of observations for both of main equations for P1 and P2.
Does anybody know how to conduct switching regression without using switchr?
Thank you in advance.
