Hi All,
A search on the statlist archives didn't turn up an answer to this.
Can anyone help?
When i run a probit I find the variable of interest statistically
significant. However, once I list the marginal effects using
'margeff', the variable is not statistically significant anymore.
(margeff, at(mean) same as mfx is still significant as the probit
estimate, albeit at a different level of significance).
What can i make of this?Is the effect of the variable significant or
not? what is the different meaning of the significance of the probit
estimate versus that of the marginal effect?
Thanks in advance
Kiron
