Dear Statalist
I am trying to compute Marginal Effects after an Ordered Probit Regression.
While the underlying theory of it is clear, the intrpretation of the
marginal effects, in partcular the signs on these are not clear to me.
In my model, I have negative, zero and positive growth of firms. e.g. one of
the significant variables is market research. How do interpret the signs of
the computed marginal effects in each of the categories? If anyone has come
across any papers using this methodology and/or has examples of how to
interpret the signs on the marginal effects I would be very grateful.
Many thanks
Seema Bhatia-Panthaki
