Re: st: -clogit-, -asclogit- and marginal effects

Richard-

Thanks for the reply. Just to be clear, you're saying that the
marginal effects computed by -estat mfx- after -aclogit- should be
correct because they're computed analytically?

In any case, I'm pretty sure at this point that I'm better off
computing the marginal effects myself. > Computing things at the mean
of the data is pretty useless in my case, so I'm going to compute the
means of the marginal effects.

Speaking of which, I wrote:

This is for the same reason, the probabilities given were the
predicted probabilities at the mean of the data, rather than the mean
of the predicted probabilities.

Thanks
