Hallo statalist,
I have followed the line of discussion on Tobit models
and marginal
effects posted here. However, it seems that I still
dont have an answer to
my question.
Therefore, I would like to ask the following (sorry
for any possible
repetition):
I have to derive the elasticity (=marginal effect)for
the dependent
variable with respect to x of a)the latent variable;
b)the observed
variable
If I understand it correctly, the answer for question
a) can be read
directly from Tobit output. Question b) however is not
straightforward.
Could you please provide any suggestions?
I have tried dtobit2 module. Is it correct solution? I
suspect that there
must be an easier way to do it.
Thanks in advance,
Kind regards,
Olga
