st: glm - predicted values for different x values
Dear All:
How can I compute predicted values for different x values after estimating
a model with glm, family(bin) and link(logit)?
A little background:
My endogenous variable is a percentage variable that is by definition
limited between zero and one hundred, and about half of the observations
have a value zero. Therefore, I estimate the empirical model using the
fractional logit estimator introduced by Papke and Wooldridge in 1996 by
using the command
glm y x1 x2 x3 x4 x5, fam(bin) link(logit) cluster(z).
To understand how important the statistically significant effects of x1 -
x5 are from an economic point of view, I want to compute the predicted
values for different sets of values for these x variables.
I know how to do this for other non-linear estimators like probit (there is
a FAQ on this, by the way), but I have no idea how to proceed with glm. Any
help is highly appreciated!
Sincerely yours,
Joachim
