Dear Statlist,
Here I am. As you adviced me I tried ivregress 2sls ... and obtained:
ivregress 2sls expshare b2b l1 age l4a (normscore = l11a l10),
note: l10 dropped because of collinearity
Instrumental variables (2SLS) regression Number of obs =
198
Wald chi2(5) =
40.30
Prob > chi2 =
0.0000
R-squared =
.
Root MSE =
7.9e+07

Instrumented: normscore
Instruments: b2b l1 age l4a l11a
I agree with and don't know why the constant term is dropped.
I was looking for some causality link between normscore and expshare, and
supossed Simultaneous Equations may help me.
Thanks and regards,
Alejandra Molina
