st: Re: 2sls with multiply-imputed data sets

["Viola Angelini" <viola.angelini@unipd.it>]

Thanks Rodrigo!
As regards the Hausman test, the only solution I can think of is to use the 
regression-based form of the test where I combine the results of the 
regression only at the second stage.
Does it make any sense or would it be better to just have 5 different 
Hausman tests?
Suppose that the multiply-imputed dataset is stored in 5 separate files: 
mydata1.dta, mydata2.dta, mydata3.dta, mydata4.dta, mydata5.dta
The Stata code would be the following:

forvalues i=1(1)5 {
use mydata`i'.dta
regress y2 z1 z2 x1 x2
predict res if e(sample), resid
save, replace
}
clear
set memory 500m
mimstack, m(5) so("id") nomj0 istub(mydata)
mim: regress y1 y2 x1 x2 res, cluster(sampid2)

[y2 is the endogenous variable and z1, z2 are the excluded instruments]

Best

Viola
