If you are ready to assume joint normality, then -biprobit- should do
the trick:
/*------------------------------*/
clear
set obs 10000
set seed 987654321
drawnorm e1 e2, cov(1,0.5\0.5,1)
drawnorm x1 x2 z1 z2
g endog=(1+z1+z2+e1>0)
g y=(1+endog+x1+x2+e2>0)
probit y endog x1 x2 /*biased*/
biprobit (y= endog x1 x2) (endog=z1 z2)
/*------------------------------*/

Dear All,
I have a problem that you may be able to help with?
I have a model of the following form:
y = a + b1x1 + b2x2 + ... +xn + u
Where y = a binary dependent variable (a probit model)
X1 is a binary variable with potential reverse causality (endogenous)
x2 - xn are exogenous variables.
I wondered whether you may use IV for this? and how I would go about this?
Would I run for example:
probit X1 X2...Xn Z
save the predicted values and then put them back into my origional equation?
Any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
Fiona M
