Stata doesn't store the t-stats or the p-values, but you can get the t-stats
if you know the t-stats are the parameter estimates divided by the standard
error, both of which are stored by -regress-. And once you know the t-stat
you can find the p-value, using the function ttail, see: -help function-.
Also see the example
below:
*----------- begin example ----------------- sysuse auto, clear regress
price weight mpg if foreign == 0 regress price weight mpg if foreign == 1
statsby tweight = (_b[weight]/_se[weight]) /*
*/ pweight = (2 * ttail(e(df_r), abs(_b[weight]/_se[weight]))) /*
*/ tmpg = (_b[mpg]/_se[mpg]) /*
*/ pmpg = (2 * ttail(e(df_r), abs(_b[mpg]/_se[mpg]))) /*
*/, by(for): regress price weight mpg list
*----------- end example ------------------
