st: RE: RE: RE: 2SLS, logistic regression and more (problems...)
Thanks a lot for your comment!
I�ve just come across another question, not directly related to Stata, but I have not yet found any hints in the textbooks.
Is it possible to use ranked data in 2SLS estimations? My data is ordinal scaled and comprises nonlinear relationships. In accordance to existing literature in my field (accounting) I calculated ranks and so far used them in ordinary OLS-estimations. I am just wondering if I could use 2SLS in this case since I need to incorporate instrument variables due to an endogenous explanatory variable.
Many thanks in advance
Tatjana

It's unclear to me why you want to estimate the first stage using logistic
regression. I am assuming your enogenous variable is dichotomous. If so, an
you are only interested in obtaining a consistent estimate in the second
stage, you can use linear regression for the first stage. Estimating the
first stage using probit or logit is unnecessary because in 2SLS the
consistency of the estimates in the second stage are not dependent upon
specifying the correct functional form in the first stage (Kelejian, 1971).

parameters but nonlinear in endogenous variables. Journal of the American
Statistical Association, 66: 373-374.
