Dear all,
I've been in touch off-list with Irina, but just in case anyone else is
interested after this discussion, you can download the code to estimate
the Cragg model, and the later extension with dependent errors (Jones),
from
http://www.sml.hw.ac.uk/somjaf/Stata/
The help-files, predict command and other extensions are in the
pipeline, but making progress, albeit slow.
Many thanks,
Julian

Ok, I checked the paper. It seems to me that the goal is to estimate
some
maximum likelihood problems. 3+4 looks like probit (use probit), 5+6 I
don't
know but it is close to probit model, then you can estimate it by -ml-.
Take
a look of the reference manual there is a program to estimate probit
(example 1 I guess), you have to change a little bit that code. 7+9 and
7+10
look like seleccion problems... but for sure you can write the
likelihood
and estimate by -ml- as well. There is a book for MLE estimation in
Stata,
which is very good source if you have to modify the Cragg's estimator
further than the paper. Good luck, Rodrigo.
