To establish whether a certain estimator and its estimated standard error
(via the bootstrap) are unbiased and cover population parameters as per
purported confidence intervals....
I am running -bootstrap- with my estimator. I would like to -return- and
cumulate results across repeated samples (from the original population)
via -simulate- . But I am at a loss as to where to find the statistics
produced by -bootstrap- (or -estat bootstrap-), e.g., the estimated 95%
confidence intervals. I mean, I obviously see them on the screen, for any
given -bootstrap-, but neither
-return list-
or
-ereturn list-
show me any scalars, macros, or matrixes I can "grab" to pass on to
-simulate-
Thanks in advance,
