I haven't been following this in detail, but one issue that might
simplify matters would be for Jingjing to copy the commands from the
results window and the error messages received. Only copy the relevant
parts of the output - I don't want to see 15 pages of garbage. Maarten
has been very noble in this.

Subject: Re: st: loglikelihood and loglikelihood ratio
1. I just checked the commands for the 3 regions case and found they
are right. But in the estimation of the unrestricted model, R square
of one of the three equations are negative, R square of the other
three euqations are positive. Does it cause the negative LR chi2 value?
2. In my 7 regions case, LR chi are positive. However, there's some
strange thing about the degree of freedom. In unrestricted case, the
parameters for equation 1, 2, 3 are 40, 8, 8, respectively. In
restricted case, are 37, 7, 7. I though the degree of freedom should
be 40-37=3. But the result of lrtest given by stata is LR chi(2).
What's the problem?
Thanks.
Jingjing
