Stephen:
Getting the effects of discrete changes like this has been implemented
in Scot Long's excelent -spost- package with the -prchange- command. To
find it type in Stata -findit spost- (without the hyphens). You can
write code to calculate those effects of discrete changes in
explanatory variable yourself, and if you are interested I am happy to
give you some pointers since I have done something similar recently,
but using existing programs saves you a lot of debugging.
