I am currently estimating several dynamic logits on binary dependent
variables using panel data, and was wondering if they can be done via Stata.
1. Heckman (1981) random effects logit models, estimated by Maximum
Likelihood, which control for initial conditions. [Should I understand
that these can be done using xtlogit, by implementing an approach
suggested by Jeff Wooldridge?]
2. Honore & Kyriazidou (2000) fixed effects logit models, estimated by
maximizing a Kernel function.
[references below]
Is anyone aware of such applications or user-created code?
Best wishes,
Stephen Knights
