Dear Martin,

thanks for your help!

Let's say this is my estimation command:

probit selb sex alter alterqu if deutsch, robust

So, to get the mean of the dependent variable, what shoul I state? It's only about the dependent variable.

Thanks again!

BTW: If it is really only about the dependent variable, the last two lines
can be used to arrive at the same result:

*************
sysuse auto, clear
probit for mpg price rep78
estat summarize foreign
summarize foreign if e(sample)
*************

Note that I used "rep78" as a covariate so that a covariate with missing
values makes my explantation meaningful. If you want to take this further,
-e(sample)- can be used to condition on inclusion in the estimation.

Betreff: st: Mean dependent variable

Hi there,

I'm not so familiar with stata. So maybe that's a simple question:

I've run a probit estimation and I want the mean of my independent
variable of this regression. What can I do to get this addtional
information in my estimation output?
I can use the means-command before my regression. But in my regression
some observations are excluded. So there will be a different mean
value of my independent variable.

Thanks for your help,
Michael
