st: sureg and reg3 for instrumental variables
I have to estimate an AIDS (linear) model with instrumental variables.
I have read the statalist faq and one note "query on sureg" from Kit
Baum, and another concerning the "sureg" and "reg3" procedures.
I have 2 questions.
1) I have to write some constraints (adding up, homogeneity, symmetry).
If I write all the equations I have and all the constraints I have, I
have an error "redundant or inconsistent constraints". I know that I
have only n-1 equations to estimate, but the constraints depend on
all... So I don't really know how to write the constraints or the
equations to estimate. The program will probably be written with
something like (but here I have certainly too much constraints).
/*example for 4 goods*/
/*adding up*/
constraint 1 [dw1]_cons + [dw2]_cons + [dw3]_cons + [dw4]_cons = 1
constraint 2 [dw1]ddeflexp + [dw2]ddeflexp + [dw3]ddeflexp +
[dw4]ddeflexp = 0
constraint 3 [dw1]dlnp1 + [dw2]dlnp1 + [dw3]dlnp1 + [dw4]dlnp1= 0
constraint 4 [dw1]dlnp2 + [dw2]dlnp2 + [dw3]dlnp2 + [dw4]dlnp2= 0
constraint 5 [dw1]dlnp3 + [dw2]dlnp3 + [dw3]dlnp3 + [dw4]dlnp3= 0
constraint 6 [dw1]dlnp4 + [dw2]dlnp4 + [dw3]dlnp4 + [dw4]dlnp4= 0
/*homogeneity*/
constraint 7 [dw1]dlnp1 + [dw1]dlnp2 + [dw1]dlnp3 + [dw1]dlnp4= 0
constraint 8 [dw2]dlnp1 + [dw2]dlnp2 + [dw2]dlnp3 + [dw2]dlnp4= 0
constraint 9 [dw3]dlnp1 + [dw3]dlnp2 + [dw3]dlnp3 + [dw3]dlnp4= 0
constraint 10 [dw4]dlnp1 + [dw4]dlnp2 + [dw4]dlnp3 + [dw4]dlnp4= 0
/*symmetry*/
constraint 11 [dw1]dlnp2 = [dw2]dlnp1
constraint 12 [dw1]dlnp3 = [dw3]dlnp1
constraint 13 [dw1]dlnp4 = [dw4]dlnp1
constraint 14 [dw2]dlnp3 = [dw3]dlnp2
sureg (dw1 = ddeflexp dlnp1 dlnp2 dlnp3 dlnp4 period dlnyear) /*
*/(dw2 = ddeflexp dlnp1 dlnp2 dlnp3 dlnp4 period dlnyear)/*
*/ (dw3 = ddeflexp dlnp1 dlnp2 dlnp3 dlnp4 period dlnyear)/*
*/ (dw4 = ddeflexp dlnp1 dlnp2 dlnp3 dlnp4 period dlnyear), cons(1-14)
I have the message "redundant or inconsistent constraints". Does someone
have an idea?
2 ) The second question concern instrumental variables because I suspect
some variables (for example one which is ddeflexp) to be endogeneous. Is
it the right method to use reg3 like this :
reg3 (dw1 = ddeflexp dlnp1 dlnp2 dlnp3 dlnp4 period dlnyear) /*
*/(dw2 = ddeflexp dlnp1 dlnp2 dlnp3 dlnp4 period dlnyear)/*
*/ (dw3 = ddeflexp dlnp1 dlnp2 dlnp3 dlnp4 period dlnyear)/*
*/ (ddeflexp = d2deflexp dlogPIB dlogrev), mvreg endog(ddeflexp)
exog(d2deflexp dlogPIB dlogrev) /* */cons(1-14)
with d2deflexp, dlogPIB and dlogrev some instruments
?
Thank you very much.
